Haven't seen those either. Apparently, I've got a few films to rent.

I also like Wings of Desire a lot but I wouldn't rate it that highly. I like Wenders. I probably prefer Paris Texas.

I think the director of Dream Lives of Angels has a new movie coming out by the way.

Godfather
Shawshank
Pulp Fiction
Goodfellas
Slapshot
Breakfast Club

Have you seen The White Sheik? I love that......

I've seen every Fellini movie except Roma ( and maybe the Ship Sails On ).

The White Sheik is his first movie.....right?

I think so, or one of his first.

Very sweet.

Roma wasn't great.

You know which one I've never seen... Il Bidone.

Have you?

That's the one about the friends hanging out, right?

It's great. It's also probably one of the more copied movies ever made.

no one likes Lord of The Rings?

Das Boot
Dr. Strangelove
Vanishing Point

blackthroatedwind 02-21-2008 07:59 PM

Lord of the Rings is one of the top 1000 movies made over the last ten years.....I think.

Actually, I'm thinking of I Vitteloni. I've probably seen Il Bidone but I don't remember it.

Perhaps you were only kidding Mr. Andy, but I actually like "Funny Bones". I've always enjoyed Oliver Platt's work, and Oliver Reed is terrific in that film as well IMO.

!!

I thought I was the only person in the world who liked Paris Texas.

Mortimer 02-21-2008 10:14 PM

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Amadeus,Cuckoo's Nest and Arsenic and Old Lace.

I wasn't joking, actually, and I also think Oliver Platt is great.
