Gamine, Marilyn was the ish. She was it then o. And I think when people are the hottest in the biz, they tend to get blown out of proportion and unfortunately meet their waterloo one way or the other eg Britney, Winehouse etc.

North by Northwest- - - -Cary Grant and Hitchcock

Sunshine Boys- - - -I always found Walther Mathau a bit guilty of overacting, but it all comes
together in this film with George Burns.

King Of Comedy- - - - - - - -Watch this to understand why De Niro is the best ever.

Citizen Kane- - - - - some say this is the apogee of cinema, it is engrossing but I think I have seen better films.

I have seen this.
Was the oscar for best or supporting actor? don't forget it was 1967 and a black man with an oscar was like a diamond in a through. Not nearly as common as it is today (or not!). And besides, he was already an oscar winner at this time, you want make them give am twice? Lai Lai.

The Manchurian Candidate- - - -Angela Lansbury gives one of the most terrifying female performances I have ever seen.
Even Meryl Streep could not match Lansbury in the remake.

Dial M for Murder- - -My fave hitchcock movie.

kramer vs kramer- - - - -two leads were outstanding

I only just saw '12 Angry Men' and all I can say is wow.

The script has its faults, but at the same time the premise more than makes up for it.

It just shows you don't have to do or have too much to make a good film.

@topic

saw One flew over the Cuckoo's nest yesterday. Err, I have mixed feelings over the film.

The performances were pretty good I guess, but it bored me somewhat. A bit long I would say.

3. The good, the bad and the Ugly ,  can't recall any quote
4. Evita ,  There hasnt been a lady loved as much as Eva Peron
5. Seven brides for Seven brothers ,  (a must watch)
6. Johnny Dangerously ,  Classic

O! all most forgot ,  ,  ,  ,  SCARFACE. ,  ,  ,  "I am Tony Montana, you mess with me, you mess with the best".


To be continued.  . . . ,  .

Thats with the exception of GODFATHER I & II and maybe goodfellas.

How could you not love Tony Montana.

Re: Old Movies, Who's Watching?
« #61 on: July 29, 2008, 01:23 AM »

because the movie is overrated?

when they are good movies like

-The Untouchables
-Good Fellas
-God Father
-Casino
-Bronx's tale
-Once Upon A Time In America

even carlito's Way is better than ScarFace.

Only people that laud it so much are guidos, retarded rappers and those that havent seen any other "mafia" movie other that

You have a good list there and I have seen every one of them except "The untouchables", and I still give it up for Tony Montana. I just think it was a good flick.
