For the life of me I couldn't remember if you had and YES, great director and I love the cast as well. Amazing flick!
Not sure if it helps or if its the same for your country but it is on Netflix (Streaming) right now.

impressive list of Cagney flicks!! Even a couple I haven't seen!!!

VERY commendable!!

Wow I wish I had the viewing experience with Split all of you above had. I had a chat with Monnom about our different PoVs. Will have to go back for a rewatch in a different mood.



Never gets old. That soundtrack creeps me out. Large box of poppycock rating.

There are countless escorts and addicts out there who would fool you senseless.

true dat!!

Thank you. There are a handful of actors who I'd see in anything, and I know a movie made in the 30s is going to be good, if not great... Same with Bogart, who I like even more, though Brando is my favorite, but he was in a few silly movies that I can watch later in life.

Louis C.K. 2017 - 7/10

He's better than this. He extends the worst bits, and you only get sprinkles. Still worth watching, I might check it out again before my subscription is over.

Know what you mean about Brando. Have you seen Morituri with him? There was another war movie he was in where he insisted on playing a german officer instead of an allied called The Young Lions which I haven't seen but really need to.

Were you going in chronological order with Cagney or just enjoying your favorite decade?

Those are the exact movies I haven't seen of his. "Sayonara" as well, but some of them have been hard to find.

As for Cagney, they play so much on TCM, I put an automatic record on any of my favorite directors, writers, actors, and I notice many. I think "Yankee Doodle Dandy" is the only one I didn't finish (I'm not into dance, musicals).

But, I usually try to go chronologically, especially with a director, but some movies are impossible to find, or too expensive.

The Discovery - 2017

The ending reminded me a lot of Charlie Kaufman’s Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Honestly this isn’t the worst movie in the world and it’s not the best, its serviceable at best. I watched it at home sitting on the couch with my dog on my lap and had a fine enough time. Found myself looking at my phone or playing with my dog, a pug and he is awesome, name is Winston. He is five years old and… Sorry I got distracted again.

Full review over at my site!

The Fury - 4/10

I thought with John Cassavetes and Kirk Douglas, how bad could it be?

Poison (Haynes, 1991)


Todd Haynes ties together three stories centering around people rejected, stigmatized, and crippled by society for their sexual impulses. Three distinct styles/periods of filmmaking are utilized: that of a 50s black and white sci-fi monster movie a la The Fly (1959), that of a documentary employing talking head interviews as well as narration, and a period drama set in the 40s which uses a prison setting and flashbacks to a juvenile disciplinary institution. It's an elaborate construction in which its complexity is kept in check with clear thematic tie-ins across the board and well reasoned, cleanly editing. As a pioneer of the New Queer Cinema movement, Haynes resolutely provides a voice for society's fringes at a volume which can no longer be drowned out.

Street thug Terry Hawkins is released from prison for charges of drug dealing. He now has an idea to start making porn. But since a certain group of clientele are growing jaded in their taste of sleaze. His idea is to make artsy snuff films. The budget is uber low and the flick feels padded at times even with a less then 90 minute run time. The atmosphere is great however and the grainy film footage adds to the visuals. So much so there was a rumor that due to not knowing who the crew were and the alias of director Roger Watkins that this was a legit snuff film. Turns out it is not. Overall the movie is a very dark, grainy, low budget gore and sleaze fest, but it is nowhere near as good as 8mm. I still liked it though.

Legal Eagles (1986) 6/10

Maborosi (1995, Hirokazu Koreeda)


Few films convey the sense of loss and profound sadness and melancholy as beautifully as this one. The serene natural flow of the images, the thoughtful, contemplative silences, the lingering static-camera shots of beautiful Japanese landscapes and scenes of daily routines - everything about this film works to create an atmosphere of quiet reflection on the mysteries of life, death, love and memory. The central question that torments Yumiko (Makiko Esumi) finds an answer toward the end but will it finally soothe her soul and bring her peace of mind?

This was a pretty crazy movie. Three "handicapped" musicians recruit an author to be their drummer. His handicap is that he can't play the drums. He turns out to be just as screwed up as they are. I would recommend this to people who like movies like Trainspotting and Romper Stomper. Its not similar in plot, but rather in style and energy, but this movie is sicker and more outrageous. It is often hilarious and features some great music. I started to wonder if there was a point to the whole thing, but it was a wild ride.
