Re: Name That Movie!
BSG--if you like Diane Lane, I would recommend taking a look at A Little Romance; it was the first movie I saw her in (she was 14 I think) and she did a pretty good job (I recall her winning some award for young artists for her performance). The movie is only so-so, and it features Lawrence Olivier in one of his overacting/walk through roles, characteristic of his 70s and 80s performances, but it's worth the watch to see her and see how she can take so-so material and make it memorable (I don't know if I ever saw it again after seeing it in 1979, but it stuck with me for nearly 40 years).BoSoxGal wrote:I just watched her this weekend in one of her two costarring roles with Richard Gere - SO much to slobber over! She and Meryl Streep were my first and strongest girl crushes as a teenager - and of course Gere in that Officer & Gentleman movie was the end all be all of male perfection, in my adolescent judgment.
Anyway, this movie is just lovely - I think I’ll go watch it again now, since you’ve brought it to mind.

Hey, nothing wrong with a movie with a high body count...Some how I knew you'd know this one, what with the number of bullets fired and body count.
Sure beats that three-hanky snoozer you posted the last time...
Re: Name That Movie!
Nice hybrid guess, RayThom, but not the right answer even by accident. Next quote:
V: I'm angry. I'm very angry, Ralph. You know, you can ball my wife if she wants you to. You can lounge around here on her sofa, in her ex-husband's dead-tech, post-modernistic bullshit house if you want to. But you do not get to watch my fucking television set!
Re: Name That Movie!
I just watched the trailer and I have a faint memory of it - I think I might have seen it on HBO in the early 80s, but I can’t be entirely sure. Damn, she was SO young then! Anyway, sadly it’s not available to stream, so I’ll have to settle for my uncertain memory. Too bad, because I am a huge Olivier fan too!Big RR wrote:BSG--if you like Diane Lane, I would recommend taking a look at A Little Romance; it was the first movie I saw her in (she was 14 I think) and she did a pretty good job (I recall her winning some award for young artists for her performance).

For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

Your collective inability to acknowledge this obvious truth makes you all look like fools.

Re: Name That Movie!
Nice one Dales, but no, and you are not getting warmer.
V: My life's a disaster zone. I got a stepdaughter so fucked up because her real father's this large-type asshole. I got a wife, we're passing each other on the down-slope of a marriage - my third - because I spend all my time chasing guys like you around the block. That's my life.
N: A guy told me one time, "Don't let yourself get attached to anything you are not willing to walk out on in 30 seconds flat if you feel the heat around the corner." Now, if you're on me and you gotta move when I move, how do you expect to keep a... a marriage?
Re: Name That Movie!
I have an vague idea of what it might be but i’m not going guess because if it’s not I’m not going to give up what would be an awesome movie to play.
Okay... There's all kinds of things wrong with what you just said.
Re: Name That Movie!
Oh, take a chance!
D: You recognize the MO?
V: M.O.? Is that they're good... Once it escalated into a murder one beef for all of 'em after they killed the first two guards, they didn't hesitate. Pop guard number three because... what difference does it make? Why leave a living witness? Drop of a hat these guys will rock and roll...

Re: Name That Movie!
is it that surfer movie where all the guys wear president masks when they rob stuff and then the guy dies on the big wave?
Re: Name That Movie!
I didn’t realize that they played older movies on airplanes; I’ve only seen recently released when I’ve flown. That said this movie is one I missed and I’ve added it to my queue based on the very good reviews.

Re: Name That Movie!
BSG--I think it depends on the airline and whether you have a choice of movies at your seat in a video system. Lately United has offered a couple of first run movies and then a number of old movies and TV series on long haul flights.
Re: Name That Movie!
No on Loose Cannons and Point Break (wesw's apparent guess). This is from the mid-90s and it was a hot cast with numerous stars.
