Re: The 19th Hall of Fame

We only have 4 ballots sent in. This needs to be more interesting.

That's just it. It was vague. I'd like more on it as a theme, because for a movie about the rights and wrongs one sees in different religions, like Ingeri's fidelity and the father's murder of the...

Re: The 19th Hall of Fame

I honestly wanted more character from Ingeri and more delivery on the Christianity vs. paganism theme. Part of the reason I love The Seventh Seal is because of its keen religious theme delivery.

Raging Bull

Like any Martin Scorsese movie with Robert De Niro, this movie kicks ass. It was pretty rough to see Jake La Motta become the person he turned out to be for most of the second-half,...

Cinema Paradiso

When I first saw it, the sentiment was the main reason I loved it. With this shorter version, I still felt related to it because I love cinema almost as much as Salvatore. And...

My nom's got some tough competition with Pulp Fiction, but I'll be happy if that nom wins as well. Easily would've been my number 2 out of the ten.

Re: The 19th Hall of Fame

Well, I'm at the point where I've saved the possible best two that I haven't seen for last: Cinema Paradiso: The International Cut and Raging Bull. I've seen the original version of Cinema Paradiso,...

The Virgin Spring

Like pretty much any other Ingmar Bergman movie, the direction was spot-on. The drama of the story felt real, and very bitter to the point where much of it hurt to watch. The...

Re: The 19th Hall of Fame

Tombstone.

My favorite westerns are ones that typically focus on badassery, and Tombstone is one of the best in that field. Its all-star cast still manages to be outshined by Kurt Russell and Val...

Angel Face

This was the one movie I was the least hyped about, so I decided to quickly get it out of the way. Angel Face has some impressive actors about it, especially considering the chemistry...

Pulp Fiction

I've spoken several times on how much I love this movie. I suppose if I had any complaints about it, it's that the number of f-bombs makes the dialogue occasionally feel unrealistic....

But they were so recently seen that I'd rather spend my time with other movies. I'll watch Cinema Paradiso again, but...

Re: The 19th Hall of Fame

Having already seen half the nominations might make the latter weeks a bit uneventful, so we need a couple more nominations. Though the tough competition might be interesting to debate once...

Gaslight

I'm glad this got nominated, because I'm a fat sucker for psychological dramas. The light foreshadowing of the film throughout was delivered as the best possible scenario for the art of...

Re: The 19th Hall of Fame

I can appreciate a sad ending if there's more merit in it, but I didn't really view the reporter as a threat. There's no good reason any newspaper should endanger a life when they clearly stated what...

Last one for the night.

Return to Paradise

OK, this one was pretty good. It had a fair bit of subtle psychological examination, which I'm a sucker for, as the main character's role in the...

Re: The 19th Hall of Fame

Cool, already seen half of these. But of course, we're pitting Pulp Fiction against The Godfather. I just started Rush in Rio, so I can't watch Return to Paradise now.
