The Duellists

Carradine and Keitel rock this one hard. The best swordplay anywhere. Keitel edges Carradine, though, with his primalness. Heck, there are even IDEAS in it. Maybe even PACKED into it. Effortlessly. And if you like period film-making, well, look no further. There are even still-lifes. (Carradine has his best hour in "Choose Me," I thought.)

Brokeback Mountain

I just keep watching it, it's one of my all time favourites! (mind you, anything by Annie Proulx is in my list!)

As much as everyone makes fun of it, I saw this movie twice in the theater and really enjoyed it. Sure you need an open mind, but it's also a love story that rings true in so many lives, regardless of the players involved. It was well acted, and the ending was just heartbreaking. I very much enjoyed it!

Just watched M (1931) by Fritz Lang, and man, what an excellent film. Kept me on the edge of my seat all the way through!

Peter Lorre was grand, and I really liked the criminals. Quite interesting, very enjoyable.

Let's see...quite a few lately!

Sherlock Holmes with Robert Downey Jr. I really liked it and hope they make another one.

Something's Gotta Give with Diane Keaton and Jack Nicholson. First time to see it and I really enjoyed it.

The Karate Kid with Jackie Chan. Pretty good.

Charade with Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn. LOVE that movie!

I absolutely hated Sherlock Holmes. [and NO, I didn't go into it expecting to, I WANTED to enjoy it.] I'm pretty much the only person I know who hated it... I thought it was well acted, but the plot was thin and predictable, and the dialogue limped along. I enjoyed Downey Jr. as Holmes, and would have loved to see him in a meatier role.

Charade is a FANTASTIC film. Two of my favorites in one film with a great supporting cast.

I picked it up a couple of weeks ago out of a discount bin. Brilliant film. Just rivetting. And some of the performances were like nothing I've seen in any hollywood film of the time.
