What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

[Spiffy]

Beach Party (1964) and Chelsea Girls.
Both for class. I love my major.
Tomorrow I watch Bonnie and Clyde twice, at 11:00 (Writing About Film) and again at 1:00 (American Cinema Post 1960). I'm really excited and am planning a thematically appropriate outfit.

 

[Joie DeVive]

The Black Swan and One Night with the King.

Not Maureen O'Hara's best, but I love her.

And I quite liked One Night with the King.
I adore John Rhys-Davies. Gotta love Salla of Indiana Jones.
Plus a cameo from Peter O'Toole. I thought it was rather well done.

Vanishing Point
maaaaaaaaan i swear Kowalski is a freaking GOD!! is he not the coolest cat??

[SweetieStarr]

Imitation of Life with Lana Turner. What a wonderful movie and a complete tear-jerker!

 

[Bugsy]

"Kiss Me, Stupid". A rather weak Billy Wilder film.

 

[Fletch]

Dr. Strangelove. I had forgotten that the bombardier - the one who can't get the bay doors open - was James Earl Jones!

"...and if we were flying any lower, we'd need sleighbells on this thing." -Slim Pickens

 

[John in Covina]

I recently put on "The Asphalt Jungle" which is a fine film noir of a meticulously planned heist that goes terribly wrong.

Dr. Strangelove. I had forgotten that the bombardier - the one who can't get the bay doors open - was James Earl Jones!

yah he kind of got thrown into the film out of the blue...i can't remeber exact details though...something along the lines of someone just saw him and cast him on the spot...

 

[Bugsy]

Cabin in the Sky

 

[AmateisGal]

Ghostbusters.

I forgot how hilarious Bill Murray is in it, even if it is a rather cheesy flick.

 

[Kermez]

Vanishing Point

[SamMarlowPI]

[Kermez]

[Bugsy]

Topkapi Still a fun film.

 

[SamMarlowPI]

Yeah, I kinda figured you'd might...

lol well it's kind of hard to resist Rosario Dawson, Tarantino, Russell, and of course, a charger and challenger all in the same film...it is VERY hard to resist.. lol

I watched 1944's "Laura" with Gene Tierney and Dana Andrews. It was very good, and about halfway through it I realized this is where the plot for Burt Reynolds movie "Sharkey's Machine"came from. I would recommend either if you haven't seen them.

"Once"

Great singer-songwriter soundtrack with the singer-songwriters as actors.

youtube for "Once" soundtrack to hear it.

A love story without a Hollywood ending.

And great music if that was at all unclear.

The Matting Game with beautiful Gene Tierney
Wikipedia:

It was directed by Mitchell Leisen and produced by Charles Brackett from a screenplay by Charles Brackett, Richard Breen and Walter Reisch, based on the play Maggie by Caesar Dunn. The film stars Gene Tierney, John Lund, Miriam Hopkins, and Thelma Ritter. Ritter was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her performance.

Jewel Robbery (1932)
This Pre-code film with William Powell was very interesting. A lot of sexual
innuendo, some great lines and a running gag about marijuana. It's on Comcast's ON DEMAND, I've watched is twice already. I couldn't get over watching William Powell handing out joints and watching guys in three-piece suits smoking them!


Farewell My Lovely (1975)
Robert Mitchum as Philip Marlow in a gritty remake. Lot's of great tough-guy, private eye dialog, prosititutes and drugs.

 

[Delthayre]

"Make it look accidental."

Union Station (1950).

Mercy bless Turner Classic Movies for from time to time indulging my ever growing fascination with film noir.
