Persona vs. 10. Fight Club 2. A Boy and His Dog vs. 15. Million Dollar Baby Both the winner and loser are great, so I'll take what happens. Strangely, I've only seen 6 movies so far in total of bracket 4, and I can't vote on any of the matchups. But I've got A Boy and His Dog lined up for a viewing for tomorrow, to start things off. I'd like to see Out of the Past and The French Connection as well. |

You haven't ticked off Mildred Pierce in your 100 film noirs list even though you've just updated your Cannes' Award winners list. If memory serves, you also nominated Platoon. Did you actually watch Mildred Pierce or is this just a vote for the film you nominated? |

Now stop investigating me. Bad boy. |

Now stop investigating me. Bad boy. SC, watch the damn film. It's good and worthy of your time. Don't follow Mark's lead, he's a troublemaker. Brodinski, great sleuthing. |
Re: MOFO Movie Tournament: Bracket 4
This whole thing is nightmarish. I haven't seen most of the films in this competition and I'm certainly not in the mood to spend my current movie watching time checking them all out just for this thing. I should have just not bothered with this game.

Lighten up, Sexy. At least Ferris Bueller will likely advance to the next round.
Nice to see that there's 3 Michael Curtiz films nominated in this tournament. I'm certain of Angels With Dirty Faces (nominated it myself) and Mildred Pierce, but iirc Casablanca was nominated too. Anyway, I have to get a hold of Man With The Movie Camera, Mildred Pierce, Persona and A Boy And His Dog. I might not bother with Cabaret and Midnight Cowboy, and they seem like the kind of movies for which you have to be in the right mood to fully appreciate them. And I'm rarely in the mood to watch a musical (not my cup of tea). |
Re: MOFO Movie Tournament: Bracket 4
I have Midnight Cowboy (on Blu-ray) to watch, but haven't stuck it in and watched it yet. I've seen part of it before - years ago. I have never seen Cabaret, though.
I was disappointed that Fight Club got paired up with Persona, since I believe that's a favorite around here. I picked Fight Club. I thought it had a good chance to win -- I wasn't even real keen on picking it -- didn't it win some other kind of contest around here? |
Yeah SC watch the movie!

Joan Crawford was quite an actress. Here's some of her best slapping moments.
