    Jackass 2 ??

    It's kind of like a double jackass feature! Batman and Robin can be: Jackass and Robin or Batman and Jackass or Jackass and Jackass! Now let's try it with The Cook The Theif His Wife and Her Lover.

    Jackass 2 ??

    So let me see if I understand this.... You take the title of a movie that is not called Jackass. You remove one word from that title. You replace that word with the word Jackass. Hilarity ensues. GENIOUS!! :rolleyes: PS: How could no-one have mentioned Billy Jackass?

    Movies about the Golden Age of Radio

    Some good choices so far. I hated Radioland Murders though. It seemed to have been scripted on the spot. It reminded me of one of those puppet shows at a kids party that just makes it up as it goes along and doesn't pay any mind to the fact that no-one is watching. The Phantom Broadcast is a...

    The BEST 1930s Suit Ever?

    He must have a good tailor to help that suit fit him like that. The trousers are perfect, with just that tiny, almost indiscernible little break. He could almost be a Fellowes illustration, he just needs a mustache.

    Film Noir, any suggestions.

    I also agree that In a Lonely Place is way better than Dead Reckoning. In Dead Reckoning Bogie kills time throwing pitches in his hotel room, and what pitches they are!! They make Gary Cooper's pitching in his hotel in Meet John Doe look dangerous by comparison. Maybe Bogie hadn't been to a game...

    Paper Moon

    Paper Moon is a wonderful movie. It is pretty much perfect. Weren't the seventies great!!! The documentary attached to the dvd is interesting too. it seems that Polly Platt, then married to Peter Bogdanovich, was as responisble for the excelence of this film as Bogdanovich was. Last Picture...

    Henry Townsend RIP

    Maybe this should be in NEWS, but here it is. The last, the very last of the original blues artists to record on Paramount Records has passed away. Here's the article/obit from AP:

    The American Abroad - How to polish up the image?

    The Proposition

    You'll be pleased to know that The Proposition was such a success that director John Hillcoat and star Ray Winstone will be back together on another Nick Cave scripted project very soon. It's a black comedy (you were expecting a romantic comedy from Herr Cave?) set in London called Death of a...

    New Addition to the Family

    Congratulations JP. Having a baby changes your life, like turns it all around and reinvents it. But it so great. Enjoy fatherhood.

    Bay Rum Blunder!!

    I've been refilling my cork topped Dominica bottle with Pinaud's Bay Rum for years. Just 'cos I'm so cheap is all.

    80s Punks / 00s Fedorans

    Is that a new policy? The Pleasantville thread was pretty political. Or do you mean that you don't want political discussions unless they can be directly relatd to the film? Cheers.

    Robin Hood, Men in Tights...

    Wasn't there also a Mel Brooks produced tv show called When Things Were Rotten or something? And didn't it star some gameshow host or something as Robin Hood? Or am I confusing an episode of Don Adams' Screen Test with Men in Tights? (Rememebrs more: "There comes a time in every man's life...

    Shooting Suit with Plus-Fours ("Knickers")

    It has a real Terry Thomas quality to it. It's so suggestive of that period of film, those Ealing comedies especially (Kind Hearts and Coronets, for example, or those St Trinians films) that I'd love a suit just like it. I can just see myself walking into a lecture hall wearing knickers...

    Flyboys

    I'm not all that hung up on period detail even when it's really off - like Robert Redford's hair in The Sting. Comments like "Josh Harnett's hat is all wrong" are kind of comical, and barely relevant to my veiwing of the film. I'm more than willing to check my disbelief at the door as long as...
