    Great underated British SciFi film. Having grown up in "The Projects" of NYC (what the Brits call "Council Estates" I believe) I always wondered what would've happened if E.T. had landed his scrawny butt in MY backyard instead of the suburbs. This movie kinda answers that question. Except there were/are a LOT more guns in the Projects I grew up in. Still in all I loved the flick.

    But I was/am always a sucker for Ford's sentimentality though... and I"m not even Irish! I admire both directors immensely. Still I think Wayne does his best "acting" away from Ford. In "Red River" and "In Harms Way", directed by Hawks and Premminger respectively I believe Wayne gives subtle and nuanced performances that belie the bluster and bravado of most of his roles. At lieast in my humble opinion.

    "7 Million Years to Earth" aka "Quatermass and the Pit". Great Hammer Film's Sci-Fi from the '60s and you gotta love those mod fashions.

    "Open Range" Duvall was great as "Boss".

    Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows. I liked it a lot better than the previous one. Robert Downey Jr. is great.

    I really liked that the kids really arn't very sympathetic at all, but you do 'get' where they are coming from. The aliens are waaay cooler than E.T. though!

    I was going to watch this but my DVD player had other ideas. It would play it for a while and then stop dead.
    People think they are so rebellious and original, when really they are just banal, boring and dumb.

    You mean "Bluebonnet".

    Saw this in the theatre years ago. Still drop & watch whenever it's on. Great film!
