Pre-Oscar movie chit chat

[Mortimer]

OK....I'm taking notes.

[Mortimer]

I was very tempted to put Horror of Dracula here. Those Christopher Lee/Hammer serial movies were to die for.

I haven't seen much Antonioni. The Passenger and Blow Up and one of his supposed classics which I barely remember.

[Mortimer]

Hard Times and Mean Streets are great off the track movies.



Maybe there should be a T-10 for off the main trackers.

[Mortimer]

I am inspired to do so.


I'll come up wth mine later.

Best Tom Hanks Movie...


Turner and Hooch

Agreed. Mean Streets is obviously a classic ( " what's a mook " ) and Charles Bronson as the bare knuckle boxer in Hard Times is excellent.

One False Move!

I love that movie.

Scrooge with Allistair Sims..???..can't quite bring up the name....was very close for mine as well.

I really hated Saving Private Ryan

the Americans all died horrible and the Germans only died while trying to surrender.

It's brilliant, how bout the work of Michael Beach as Pluto the quiet, and brutal killer? I thought it was the best film of that year, and of course it go overlooked at award time.

Il Deserto Rosso was good.

Good cast.
