Name That Movie!
Re: Name That Movie!
That's the name of the movie, as I recall.

I vote that people should provide the movie poster when answering, like BoSoxGal does. 
For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

BSG--well, if you're going to insist on that, I suggest only the real movie posters be used, not something for a Criterion DVD like you posted. I think this should be a real poster (if it works); otherwise, the link will lead to one.
Re: Name That Movie!
Okay, that works for me! This thread is a source of new entries on my 'to watch' list - in fact, I've watched a few of the films already and have been pretty impressed. I'm going to have to try to find this one, because I adore Malcolm McDowell, especially when he was young and HOT, HOT, HOT!

Re: Name That Movie!
Maybe I didn't like it all that much because I wanted the victory to be complete. All we got was the fade out and 'if'

Actually the title is "If...."Big RR wrote:OK, I really thought you had me stumped.
Re Dales quote, and your mention of Malcom, I would guess "If".
We have a winnah!
Your collective inability to acknowledge this obvious truth makes you all look like fools.

"Religulous"?

Mildred Pierce? (I don't think they would have said "good sex" in the 40s, though)

For some reason I was captivated by this movie and have seen it several times:Big RR wrote:New quote:

BSG has it; and it is a great film; my favorite that year (2011 I think).

Re: Name That Movie!
Sounds like a chick flick or one of those Robin Williams feel-good ones

It sure does, which means I'm completely SOL on this one...MajGenl.Meade wrote:Sounds like a chick flick or one of those Robin William's feel-good ones

Hey LJ - I edited my post to correct that awful apostrophe faux pas. Can you edit your quote of the original so that no one notices?
Oh
Oh

Re: Name That Movie!
I don't know if you would classify the movie as a chick flick, but it's recent and think Academy Award winning.

Re: Name That Movie!
I would call it a romantic comedy, however, wouldn't you BSG?
Re: Name That Movie!
Yes, I think it is classified as a 'rom-com' - but one more tolerable to men perhaps than the average 'chick flick'? Several Academy Award nominations, one win for performance.
