What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

[AmateisGal]

Gran Torino with Clint Eastwood. Excellent performance, excellent movie.

The Duchess with Keira Knightley. The male-dominated society of the 18th-century definitely took its toll on this woman, duchess or not.

The outlaw Josey Wales and Raiders of the Lost Ark

Both are great movies!

"A man has got do something for a Living."
" Dying aint much of a living boy"

You should watch it. Myrna Loy is wonderful and I'm officially in love with William Powell now

Yeah, they had great chemistry and Asta the dog was cool too.

I watched "The Expendables" last night at a friends house. It was pretty good in some parts, a little predictable, and had an eighties buddy film free to the screen writing. But a genuine testosterone fest.

Wasn't he cute? Loved that dog

Wasn't he cute? Loved that dog

Yeah he was. My favorite scene from the movie is on Christmas morning when William Powell is on the couch shooting the decorations off the tree with the BB gun that Myrna Loy gave him

I love that scene and the one where she walks in on him hugging the girl and they both squish their noses at each other


Today I watched Midnight (1939) A really cute comedy starring Claudette Colbert and Don Ameche.

 

[Old Rogue]

I watched The Untouchables with Kevin Costner, Sean Connery, et al. It was ok. Without Sean Connery's performance it would have been a very forgettable movie in my opinion.

 

[Wally_Hood]

Rio, at the movies. Fun, beautiful colors, an enjoyable way to pass an afternoon with the Missus and Youngest Hood.

 

[Widebrim]

Metropia is an indie animation in a noir, dystopian near-future right out of Orwell and Kafka, where corporations control the world, and are, of course, evil. Fortunately, some people know the truth, and the resulting story is worth making a movie about. I found it on iTunes.

I would like to see that done as a live-action movie.

 

[Blackthorn]

The Glass Key, with Alan Ladd and Veronica Lake

Sadly, each died at age 50 after a life of heavy drinking.

 

[Black Dahlia]

I watched 'Silent Rage' with Chuck Norris. Ha ha. A combination of an action/slasher film. ;0

The Untouchables also featured an unknown Andy Garcia.

The Glass Key, with Alan Ladd and Veronica Lake

Yes, very sad. Last week I saw Ladd's funeral crypt at Forest Lawn, Gledale; a well-done bronze bust of him is located next to it. My favorite Ladd/Lake film is The Blue Dahlia. So little did either Ladd or Lake emote in their various roles, that one author refered to the couple as something like frozen zombies in a catatonic state (but he actually wasn't putting them down, though...lol).

The Untouchables also featured an unknown Andy Garcia.

The one scene that sticks out in my mind is when Connery's character refers to Garcia's character as a wop, which causes Garcia to stick his pistol against Connery's head and spout off something close to, "Yeah, and this wop's gonna blow off your mick head!" Connery looks at Costner as Ness and says, "I like him!"

Interesting. They did a bunch of movies together, too. I liked the Blue Dahlia, too.

Exactly, that's the spark Connery seems to bring to any role he plays.
