Frenchbabyface...I have all the spaghetti westerns Clinty made. For a Few Dollars More. Hang 'em High...I don't know why I love those movies. I just do.
Leolaia....I can't believe someone else liked eXisTenz. It was way too strange for anyone in my family. I loved it. I asked my sons how they'd like an X-Box plugged into their backs?
And how could I forget Wuthering Heights with Timothy Dalton? He was the best Heathcliff. IMO
Most disturbing movie I've seen???? CRASH. With Holly Hunter & James Spader. This movie made me squirm.
doc....bb....you two are so bad! Ass to ass? No matter what I see Keith David in, I get a stomach ache!!!
Tatiana --- how about the original Wuthering Height with that Lord god awful gorgeous actor who played Heathcliff, Oh man his image has been with me since kid-dom. OH!!! Lawrence Olivier. What a dreamboat.
I also frequently warch Clinty's B westerns and don't forget Henry Fonda's trek into spaghetti westerns where he played a bad guy!!! He was great. Or when he played the addicted gambler in A BIG HAND FOR A LITTLE LADY --- the lady was Joann Woodward.
Somebody mentioned the 12 Monkeys --- In either the french or english it's superb.
Besides To Live other good Chinese films are The Girl from Hunan , TheRoad Home another tear duct cleaning, And Red Sorghum it's more of a political statement but great use of images.
Yeehaaaaa ! LEOLAIA I'm happy I found someone who loved PW's BA too !!!
Now I'm affraid that I maybe don't know about what's the Cheesy old "Martian Chronicles" (maybe an other tittle here in France or maybe not broadcasted at all here I dunno ...)
Here I would add ...
"Dave" with Kelvin klein and sigourney weaver the French tittle was : "one day president"
"Groundhog Day" : with bill Murray and Andy Mac Dowell the French tittle was : "the neverending day"
I can't tell how much time I saw those 2 movies (My son and I just couldn't let go ... LOL)
"ARIZONA" with Kelvin Klein - Dany Glover (very interesting and quiet realistic)
I saw it twice on TV, always a pleasure
"The Negotiator" with Samuel L Jackson (WICKED !)
I just love when both professional introduce themself and talking about the way they are to each other without the others wondering what it is all about, and the moment when they try to get his wife involved to cool him down on the phone... and him knowing that he'd better not answer just know that he have to fake the worse (BANG !) without even answering. And the guy who dare to say everything he thinks right and get pissed off against who deserved it !!! And reacting in a such bold way ! I just adore him in this movie !
"The fugitive" with Harrison Ford BUT ALSO TOMMY LEE JONES
Can't tell how much time I've seen this one too I like the story but I particularly like both caracteres ! The fugitive (struggling) and the marshall (professionnaly enquiering and managing everything with a strong hand, instinct and feelings) that is probably why I've liked "US Marshall"
I think that there are too many movies that I like. The only one on the list that I did not see was Gangs of New York... that's it.
Pee Wee's big adventure is a total laugh. Even today, I can still watch it and giggle myself silly!
12 monkeys is really cool... Brad Pitt was awesome in it!
Hey, if you can, watch Gummo. It's a B movie from the producer of "kids" and is horribly disturing. It's about white trash america... horrilbe! Also, rent Bully! Really really good movie, again B, so if you want Hollycrap block-buster bullshit, don't even bother renting those.
Yeah Tatiana most of them are quiet good !!!
and yeah Panda (forgot also to push on) 12 monkeys !!!
shamus, Bully was a good one. And it was based on a true story. I saw the "real" kids on American Justice on A&E. Very disturbing teenagers.
Ok, panda, I'll have to give it to you, Lawrence was one good looking man. I just have a weak spot for Timothy. *heavy breathing*
There was another movie I saw with that French actor, Jean Reno. I think it was called Crimson River. That was excellent.
Man from Snowy River
i absolutely freaking LOVE this movie!! it is probably the only movie i loved as a child that has lived up to my memories of it as an adult. classic. love it. i had such a huuuuuuuge crush on jim craig as a kid!!!
czar, i'm surprised you found 'the royal tenenbaums' depressing. i thought it was overwhelmingly charming and sweet. i love wes anderson.
My all time favorite is Jeremiah Johnson. Next is Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. Almost everything Paul Newman was in especially Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, The Hustler, and A Long Hot Summer. Apocolypse Now was is my favorite film about Vietnam, Martin Sheen is an intense Actor(he suffered a heart attack during the filming). Saving Private Ryan is my favorite Tom Hanks movie, The first three God Fathers, Pulp Fiction is my favorite in the past 10 years, with 6th Sense close behind. Also Brave Heart, As Good As It Gets, and The Patriot. I saw a great British Film recently it's called Secrets and Lies.
All time favorite comedy: My Cousin Vinny
Best foriegn film: Cyrano
Movies I hated: Road House or anything with Patrick Swasee, That gunslinger movie with Sharon Stone in it (so bad I can't remember the name), Almost everything with Adam Sandler except Happy Gilmore and Anger Management (Jack saved the day on that one), All the new Star Trek movies (sorry Trekkie's).
I have alot more I really liked and some more I really hated but these are the ones that instantly come to mind.
