That's not a choice. Scarface is way better than Titanic.
Tony Montana is a fucking bad ass. Pacino did a very good job.

Thank you for bring this one to my attention D. ;0
I didn't even know it existed.
There's got to be a way I can watch this. Maybe download it from somewhere with Dutch subtitles. I'm gonna hunt for it. =)
I love Tarantino and Dennis Hopper is in it. I know I am so going to like this.

I don't know if you can get this one outside of Holland.
De Dominee.
A movie about the life of this man:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klaas_Bruinsma_(drug_lord)

Klaas Bruinsma
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=MFvl9cN3F6o


As you can read he was the biggest in Dutch Mafia in that time. Got shot in the early 90's.
Also you can read that his former bodyguard said one of our princesses from the Royal family fucked Bruinsma. Of course she denied it. She said she just spend a night on the boat sleeping doing nothing there. But I'm telling you she's fucking lying. =) I know for a fact that you do not get to spend time with such a man without him getting something in return.
No charity, no friendly sleepovers. That's not how it works.
Anyway I like this movie. For Dutch standards it's a good one.

Sadly there are not many previews to find on you tube.

Some classic TV shows that seem to fit here now since they are presented on DVD movie format. The spy genera .......

I Spy (the Don Quixote episode with Boris Karloff, especially), The Man From U.N.C.L.E., The Avengers =) , Secret Agent....

and my favorite.... The Prisoner. :mrgreen: That big menacing "balloon" taking down Patrick got me every time!!

Yeah, I thought it was a pretty good movie. Gave it a 5/5 star rating on Netflix. Those are the types of movies I like. :)

Watched Edmond last weekend. That was pretty trippy.

Edmond....have not heard of that one.

I'll have to check it out.


Google the top ten most disturbing movies of all time, some of them are actually really good...some of my fav's. Many of them are the original foreign films, but the foreign movie remakes now a days are usually the sellers in the US. Some of them are banned from the US but you can easily get a bootlegged copy off the net somewhere.


and to add an edit: Death Proof somewhat parallels HWY.....but in a completely different tone (I have been drinking so I hope that makes sense????)

Takes me a while to catch up, but I saw......

Royal Tenenbaums .......
on Saturday & beyond the great cast & the off-beat, absurdist, black humor....the soundtrack blew me way:

Tracks by:
Vince Guaraldi
John Lennon
The Clash
Bob Dylan
NICO....for all you Nico lovers!
Velvet Underground
The Ramones
Paul Simon
NICK DRAKE
Rolling Stones
Beatles
Eric Satie
Van Morrison
& more

Don't get the first release soundtrack CD....several tracks are withheld.

Anyone else enjoy this Owen Wilson & Wes Anderson film? :mrgreen:

How about some more absurdist films with great sound tracks? What's your favorite soundtrack? Doors excluded !!
:wink:

I've always enjoyed Robin Williams and his wild improv. He can still get me laughing to tears on late night TV.
I remember enjoying Mork & Mindy but never would have guessed at the time that he would show such powerful talents on the big screen.

Of all his great roles, I kind of enjoy a smaller movie best..."The Fisher King" gets me every time. Of course, any film involving a Monty Python alum will get me in, even if it's "only" with Terry Gilliam as director. A story of forgiveness & redemption......

Williams' movies are destined to become classics and stand the test of time, I think.

What are your faves from Robin?? :mrgreen:

From Robin Williams? That has got to be Goodmorning Vietnam.
Loved that movie.
