I'm not surprised at all that The Innocents came in first. It was a very solid film. Congrats, Siddon! :up:

Re: 17th MoFo Hall of Fame

I was apprehensive about The Aviator, but ended up enjoying it. It didn't place high on my list though (it's in the middle), since I liked a lot of other films in this HoF as well.

When I saw the nominations, I assumed that it would be last on my list, but two films ended up placing below it (Hawks and Sparrows and Pixote). I actually liked Pixote quite a bit more than Amélie,...

Re: 17th MoFo Hall of Fame

Lock, Stock... showing up reminded me that I didn't get around to rewatching Snatch, even though I was quite keen to watch it during the HoF.

I don't remember what the general consensus on The...

You mean the Wilhelm scream? I don't think I noticed that in the film, or if I did, I've completely forgotten about it.

Strange that Incendies is on Netflix here and not elsewhere, since usually we're the ones with a smaller selection haha.

I know it's not the case, but I'm imagining Colin Firth playing the baroness, and thinking that I'd totally watch that movie haha.

Re: 17th MoFo Hall of Fame

I wonder what the record for most consecutive reviews of the same film is haha.

I think Suspect is the only one who hasn't posted a write-up for The Innocents yet, so we probably won't get 5 in a...

Re: 17th MoFo Hall of Fame

It's on Youtube. I'll send you the link. The low quality does actually work for the film, but there were some issues with the subtitles (where sometimes the wrong letters were capitalized,...

I think the same thing whenever I see a film that has an actor playing a character who is also an actor. That can't be easy.

Interesting. I've only ever heard it referred to as "day for night", even by Americans. "Hollywood Night" has a nice ring to it though haha.

It did get a laugh out of me, but it seemed odd because it was too well made to feel like a comedic exaggeration, but too silly and obviously fake to be taken seriously. It needed to lean more in one...

Don't worry, it took me about 10 failed attempts to get the tag in. Though for the first half I had completely forgotten that she even asked, so I wasn't actively trying until the last few haha.
