"The lovely bones".

Berlin, I watched it on a flight last year, and came away very disappointed. Susan Sarandon did a wonderful turn, but other than that it was weak. The ending was particularly poor in my opinion: it almost has the feeling of a TV show which has been told at short notice they had only one more episode to tie everything up when they had been expecting three, and badly edited at that. Friends tell me the book is worth reading, but to be honest I have nil motivation to do so after that. Very disappointed, as I'm quite the fan of Peter Jackson's other work, and especially given what he did with Heavenly Creatures.

 

[Dan'l]

I Want to Live! (1958)

Good movie, kind of troubling in parts. It's about a Female prisoner on death row...

 

[Black Dahlia]

What We Do Is Secret (2007) about the Germs.

BD

[Tomasso]

"The lovely bones".
Didn't liked it at all.

One would think that with all that talent (I love Tucci) something good would result but ......shakeshead

Went to the ArtCraft Theater -- Franklin's wonderful art deco movie theater, built by my grandfather -- today to see "The Maltese Falcon." Haven't seen it on a big screen in decades. Wow.

(I loaned them my reproduction of the "blackbird" prop to stick in the box office window.)

I have not seen The Lovely Bones, but I did read the book. I loved the book, but having read it, I can't picture the movie doing it justice.

The last movie I saw was The Green Hornet. I didn't think I was going to like it because I'm a huge fan of the original series, but I did enjoy it.

 

[John in Covina]

G-Men (Cagney) It was quite a movie, See?

 

[Miss Golightly]

I Want to Live! (1958)

Good movie, kind of troubling in parts. It's about a Female prisoner on death row...

Excellent movie - Susan Hayward was superb in it.

Human Desire - I thought this was only so-so.

Teen daughter and I went to the Stanford Theatre in Palo Alto last night. Saw Cleopatra starring Claudette Colbert with Shanghai Express starring Marlene Dietrich. Costumes were great in both, bored by Cleo in spite of the monumental sets, and after a short while we got tired of seeing both actresses completely unbelieveable in their roles basically being shown emoting full face, filling up the screen.

Shoulda gone and bought the DVD version of BBC's Pride and Prejudice starring Colin Firth, and stayed in to watch that instead. Or taken my daughter to the movies to see The King's Speech.

Bonnie and Clyde.

Bonnie and Clyde.

The Faye Dunaway one, or did I pick up correctly on a rumour there has been a remake?

 

[Stray Cat]

The Gang's All Here (1943)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0035916/
Laughed so much at the scene in Peyton Potter's study, with Dorita. When his wife enters the room, and he said to her that that's ketchup on his face. She replies: "No doubt, and from a Brazilian tomato!"

The Faye Dunaway one, or did I pick up correctly on a rumour there has been a remake?

Faye Dunaway (what a looker she was!) and Beatty. I think the only remake was a TV version quite a while back. I think it's time for another one. The original is fun, but historically lame.

Edit: Just looked on the web, new one pending starring Hillary Duff? I question that casting...

 

[Berlin]

Black Death with Netherlands best actrice: Carice van Houten. Awesome movie.

 

[Romy Overdorp]

I saw Casablanca again last Saturday. It's funny because Ingrid plays Ilsa, and next day my boyfriend's brother called us and said: We have a baby daughter! Her name is Ilsa!
He has no interest in vintage or whatsoever he doesn't even know the movie, talking about coincidence!

 

[Snowdrop]

'The Quiet Man' (1952)

In preparation for St. Patrick's Day!

 

[Edward]

Black Death with Netherlands best actrice: Carice van Houten. Awesome movie.

I missed that in the cinema, but I ust pick it up on DVD - I remember the trailer looked tremendous fun.

 

[Lady Day]

Red (2010)

Tremendous fun
