Re: If you could see a classic movie In the ‬theater

I would like to see a classic Orson Wells mini-retrospective; begin the day with Kane, then Ambersons and then a little break and back in for Touch of Evil. I wouldn't mind watching the Third Man as...

Re: What young Actress today, will still have solid work in 30 years?

Carey Mulligan will definitely still be knocking around. I think she'll have a similar reputation to Judi Dench and Helen Mirren, massively overrated, and consistently overrated. Each performance...

Re: Martin Scorsese's Best Film

To be honest I think I like his two Personal journey documentaries about Italian and American cinema the most. But as far as his fiction films go then it would have to be between Raging Bull and King...

Re: Lets Talk Football

I think Benayoun was a better player than Rosicky, but after spending the whole year on a medical table tast year, maybe he might not be the same player as he was. Worth taking a risk on a loan...

Re: Worst Directors Of All Time

I mean, if we're talking of all time then its a bit difficult really. As Ed Wood is sort of renowned as being the worst of all time. But in reality I would much rather watch one of his films then any...

Re: Films You Love, But Everyone Else Hates

I like Antichrist. I wouldn't go as far as to say that I love it but I like it a lot more than most people generally do. There are some wonderfully subtle scenes in there which I think are ignored...

Re: How to make an intelligent blockbuster

a motion picture, novel, etc., especially one lavishly...

Re: I hate Adam Sandler

I think all the Sandler haters agree that Punch Drunk Love is the only real film in which he is a decent performer. Which he is, and as a Sandler hater I agree. I think with Funny People and...

Re: Your favorite Musical?

The Umbrellas Of Cherbourg is I think the only musical I have ever really enjoyed. Everything is beautiful about it from the music to the dresses to Catherine Deneuve of course. I can't really think...

Re: Films You Hate, But Everyone Else Loves

Anything Terrence Malick has made besides Badlands. Although again, I do not hate them, but I also do not love them. I am indifferent to them, although everyone seems to think Malick is a genius,...

Re: Films that wouldn't stand tall today?

By stand tall, do you mean it wouldn't be as commercially successful as it was when it was released or that it wouldn't be as critically acclaimed? It is a difficult question to answer. Say a film...

Re: Best fashion movie?

I think The September Issue is probably the best film about the inner workings of the fashion industry that I have seen before. I presume from your question you are asking about a film to do with the...

Re: Best Stanley Kubrick Film

Barry Lyndon is my favourite Kubrick film. I think it is fantastic, and it is beautifully shot. The attention to detail was obsessive and I think it really makes it such a wonderful film, some may...
