I think this film sucked but I need help with a few questions about it, anyone willing to help?
|
I've never even heard of it
|
"In Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock."
I don't believe that you've never heard of this film. I've never seen it but it's on my national TV station on Sunday night so fingers crossed that I'll remember.. |
I'm serious...never heard of it. Sounds familiar but like I said, never seen it.
|
the THIRD MAN is a 1949 suspense thriller that is very critically acclaimed...considered the greatest suspense film ever even against Hitchcock....and i saw it BECAUSE it was so highly rated, and because i like Orson Welles.
...but i have never liked it, didn't even like Orson in it....just slow and boring to me.....really boring. BUT movies are a subjective experience and i choose not to like this one despite its acclaim! Yet i respect it, and don't mean to trash it. |
Maybe that's why I haven't seen it. Old, and trashed by people who have seen it. :)...
Nothing against old movies, I like them, if they can carry a story set back in the olden days, in a new century, I'm up to a good classic movie. :) |
The Third Man is a great flick. I've seen it dozens of times and own it on LD and DVD.
What questions did you have? |
I saw this listed as one of the 50 most essential DVDs to own, but when you haven't seen one, and it's not available anywhere around you to rent or buy, I tend to stay away from those kinds of movies. :)
|
Is this Anarking person not coming back to ask specific Third Man questions?
|
maybe he(?) is maybe he isn't Holden, but now that i've reread my own post, i feel like i'm being unduly unresponsive to The Third Man, and shall once again watch it. i guess there isn't any place this thread can go, since we already have one for B&W's in general.
....Holden, i kind of wimped out on writing a new B&W thread...call it stage fright. you were gone when i needed you most?? :bawling: ;D |
In case anyone is wondering, "Anarking" has been deleted from the user database...he provided a fake email address. As such, you'll notice that his typical post buttons are gone, and his status is set to "Guest." Just wanted to let you all know. :)
|
Awww, that's a shame. With an insightful review like 'I think it sucked', he will be missed. Still curious what he didn't get about The Third Man.
Oh, well. Anarking, we hardly knew Ye. |
There's a difference between a review and an opinion. You may write "reviews" but opinions are just fine for some of us.
|
Oh, definitely, there's plenty of room for the "it sucks"/"it rules" level of discussion.
Like I said, he will be missed. |
Who's he gonna be missed by?
Yeah he might be missed because questions he had will go unanswered, but that's about it. :) |
Maybe you should change your subtitle to omnipotent master of arrogance, pretention, and pomposity. That would seem to be a much better characterization of your interactions here.
|
Indubitably. I couldn't agree more. Right on, my Brutha'! You go, Girl. :yup:
|
Holden, don't start fights. It's just not right.
So if you two ladies would like to stop baiting each other...... *Cough*c'monbrawlthread*cough*!! |
I'm not your brutha and I'm not your girl but I will call you out for what you are... bitch. :rolleyes:
|
Wasn't aware I was baiting anybody or starting a fight.
Ouch: "bitch". So mean. So very, very mean. I'm crushed. Not sure where the anger is coming from, but too crushed to worry about that now. Hey, look! It's a worm, and I assure you it's not on a hook. Don't it look yummy for the tummy? :rolleyes: |
