Transsiberian (2008), directed by Brad Anderson, starring Emily Mortimer, Woody Harrelson, Eduardo Noriega, Kate Mara, Ben Kingsley. A thriller that I thought wasn't particularly thrilling. Not bad, either, but nothing special.

I don't think it's the same with books at all. I agree that everything cannot be translated exactly and something is often lost, but it's not necessarily "a great loss" if the translation is really good. If one only read books in their original lang…

The Caine Mutiny (1954), starring Humphrey Bogart, Robert Francis, Van Johnson, Fred MacMurray, Tom Tully, José Ferrer, Lee Marvin, based on Pulitzer Prize winning Herman Wouk novel... and it got multiple Oscar nominations and was very successful at…

@chrisisall Well done, you, for ending the abuse, and you shouldn't feel guilty at all, 14 is still a kid. Be proud of yourself instead. WillyGalore wrote: » I'm sometimes really lazy by putting on English subtitles when watching English langua…

Are you sure it's a tattoo, and not painted? But either way, well...

Key Largo (1948), directed by John Houston, starring Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Bacall, Edward G. Robinson, Claire Trevor, Lionel Barrymore. Hadn't seen this in years, so it was about time to re-watch. The Treasure Of The Sierra Madre (1948), direct…

@Birdleson - Yes, I agree there was some over-sentimentalism in Amistad - the use of music at times was irritating especially because of that, and some speeches were a bit over the top or longish, and stuff like that - which is one reason I certainl…

Winter's Bone (2010), starring Jennifer Lawrence and John Hawkes - both were Oscar nominees for their portrayals, the movie was also nominated for screenplay and - somewhat amazingly considering what it's like - best film. The movie got awards at fi…

I don't see a problem myself. Everyone is influenced by what they see, hear and read, and use some of that material in their work one way or another. Using ideas, philosophies, or occasional short sentences others have used is not a problem. What…

The Black Swan (1942), starring Tyrone Power and Maureen O'Hara. Was this sort of stuff really considered exciting or something at the time? Goodness it was awful. I thought about giving up on it, but then sat through it anyway. The Sting (1973),…

Thanks for the info on the wins. I hope it wins everything else possible as well, and Matthew over Woody (I agree he was great, too, but Matthew was exceptional).

@Sandy - Oh, I see, I get it. Bad experiences, then, due to circumstances. I might hate water if there hadn't been a bridge and I had gotten wet every day in autumn and spring (when there was no ice to cover it) going to school and coming back, and …

But that has been done over and over in all sorts of films and it is a worn and cliched thing to use, IMO. But ok, if people still think it's a great idea to do it yet again. I don't see the point myself that's all. (Besides, a shot of brandy/whisky…

Ok... I don't see what cosy and romantic indoor scenes have got to do with having snow outdoors, though. But I do agree snowy landscapes can be very beautiful. Then, so can lots of different kinds of landscapes, with or without snow. The world is fu…

Good Will Hunting (1997), directed by Gus Van Sant, starring Matt Damon, Robin Williams, Stellan Skarsgård, Minnie Driver, Ben Affleck. I must admit I don't love this film like some of you do, but I do like it a lot. I love the story, Damon is grea…

An Affair To Remember (1957), directed by Leo McCarey, starring Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr. Considered a classic romantic film. It was... pretty good, for most part... partly enjoyable, partly not so much. Partly comedy, partly serious and emotiona…

The Roaring Twenties (1939), directed by Raoul Walsh, starring James Cagney, Priscilla Lane, Humphrey Bogart, Gladys George, Frank McHugh. A good, good movie. I was also quite pleased to notice that I was familiar with the music used in it. :D As w…

@Creasy, it isn't about suicide, but it is kinda heart-breaking at times. In the end it's still a positive story. I'd say it is about surviving guilt, surviving tragic events, helping, and healing. At the end I'd expect you'd feel uplifted rather th…

Speaking of Terry Gilliam's films... @Creasy, have you seen any of his 1990s trio, The Fisher King, 12 Monkeys and Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas? I liked them. :)

Re-watching these 2 after several years, and I enjoyed them both: Bringing Up Baby (1938), directed by Howard Hawks, starring Cary Grant, Katharine Hepburn, and of course the very important Skippy alias Asta (as George the dog), and Nissa (in the…
