Good Night and Good Luck - Closed
Shame on you right back. I don't need another Morally Conservative Dictator telling me what to say or do. You should have banned Biltmore Bob; he was a hate monger. I'm sure his little Hillbilly-Gestapo Mates miss him greatly but he was a jackass. I don't need you threatening me and I don't...- Harry Lime

Good Night and Good Luck - Closed
A precisely correct observation. The FL unwritten and unspoken rule; let 'em know you're fighting on the side of the Republicans and Jesus and the rope is pretty long. All others watch your step. A right-winger can hurl epithets and slander at will at "jews and lib-tards." But dare venture...- Harry Lime

Miller's Crossing
I love Miller's Crossing. The comparison to Road to Perdition is a good one. Miller's doesn't take itself seriously; Perdition does. The over-the-top nature of Miller's is on purpose and adds an element of humor to it. Plus, some of the most quotable tough-guy movie lines ever. ("Look into...- Harry Lime

Good Night and Good Luck
Herringbone Kid is one of the first posters to land on an important discussion topic of GNAGL - it's simply a very good film. First and foremost an excellent script, well shot and well-acted. Clooney's accomplishment for this triad alone towers. With just these 3 facets it's a very good...- Harry Lime

James Dean Jacket
Most things with James Dean lack any kind of agreement or conclusion. The burned clothes thing sounds like urban myth born of the Cain and Abel type relationship Dean supposedly had with his father (dramatized in East of Eden.) It is doubtful his clothes or personal possessions were burned...- Harry Lime

Five that are Seriously Underrated. (Under, not Over)
Jake Fink, I knew you would come through with some gems. I agree with every pick you made. Mitchum really was amazing and his Farewell, My Lovely is great. I think people forget how good he is because he made so many lousy films too (Mitchum was always chasing a buck.) Another guy who...- Harry Lime

Five that are Seriously Underrated. (Under, not Over)
The overrated thread has gone over well, let's try the flip side. What are five films that you feel are seriously underrated ie. not given their due by The Academy, the FL, or the world at large? There are no right or wrong answers, it's your choice (s). Five of mine: 1) The Hustler...- Harry Lime

Our only hope...the bar (the best part) is supposed to re-open. Hope they stay true to their words. If so, Airfrog, we'll meet and tip a few. (you're an Oak Parker - Philander's is a nice old classic bar. I've had a few there in my day.) Harry Lime- Harry Lime

depression-era style photoshoot
Some of those are so dead-on they fooled me (the women in particualr look quite authentic.) The guys are a give-away, but even a couple of them pass the test. Interesting photo. Harry Lime- Harry Lime

Mr.Arkadin or The Three Lives of Harry Lime
Good information, I had not heard this. Welles had legendary differences with everyone on his films at editing time. Sadly he lost every case. Now all these years later we're seeing his original ideas cut togetehr and I'd say in every case they are an improvememnt. Thanks for this, I'll...- Harry Lime

Spring Fever
March in Chicago is the cruelest month. You might get a few days that approach 60 F...only to have the temperature plunge to 0 or get a foot of snow. It's very up and down. Then, about April... Zohar's picture gives me hope. I have a couple of flowering crab trees that are gorgeous in...- Harry Lime

The Blackboard Jungle
There have been plenty of films over the years that dealt with topics yesterday that still resonate today, many even before Black Board Jungle. Bogart in Knock on Any Door deals with a slum kid who faces anti-Italian prejudice. Criss Cross is even earlier; it deals with anti-Semitism, a change...- Harry Lime

The Blackboard Jungle
What myth of social repression does this shatter exactly? I'm afraid I have no idea what you're going for here. Judging from the one reply you've had I think you need to clarify if you want any action on this thread. Harry Lime- Harry Lime

Name your "bookend" double feature.
Another one. 1) The Best Years of Their Lives (1946) A very brave and realistic look at the lives WW2 returning vets faced. Far less rose-colored than we might expect for a film released at this particular time. 2) Born on the Fourth of July (can't remeber exact year.) A look at a vet...- Harry Lime
