Stewart is hard, too, because all his roles run together. He's just not a very good actor, which is why Vertigo is so wonderful -- it's made for him. Hitch is excellent at doing that -- Grant in North by Northwest, Peck in Spellbound, Cotten in Shadow of a Doubt, Fontaine in Rebecca, Bankhead in Lifeboat. Every one of those roles has to be that actor -- it wouldn't work with anyone else. The scene in Rebecca where Fontaine breaks the figurine and shoves it in her desk -- for my money the single greatest moment in any Hitchcock movie, as it communicates what hours of scene setting and dialog could only approximate and in a way that stabs you in the heart and puts you completely in her corner for the rest of the film -- would never have worked with any other actress. Imagine how unconvincing and manipulative it would have been for Kelly or Bergman (and how laughably unbelievable for Novak).Last edited by Kepler; 07-09-2021, 01:28 AM.Cornell University

Black Widow was very good. Top 5 Marvel I'd have to say. Stay for the end credits. Especially if you've stayed current with the TV Shows.**NOTE: The misleading post above was brought to you by Reynold's Wrap and American Steeples, makers of Crosses.

Chinatown. Saw it for the fourth time. It's going to become one of my favorite movies eventually -- it has grown every time and I can even stand Dunaway in it now. The minor cast carries it, and of course the beautiful aesthetics.
TIL (spoiler): Polanski rewrote the ending which had been happy. What a great decision. The score was rewritten, recorded, and added to the film in the last 11 days before national release.
Get Carter. This is one of the most rancid movies I have ever seen. It's so wonderfully gross and Caine is striking and so cold. Hard to remember that Michael Caine was a very good actor about 40 years ago before he made nothing but crap.
Deadpool 2. Meh. More of the same. Reynolds is charming, the Winter Soldier was cool, the bartender dude was funny, everything else pedestrian.Last edited by Kepler; 07-23-2021, 07:44 PM.Cornell University

HBO's Woodstock '99 doc drops tonight. Looking forward to watching it tomorrow...
It's one of those things that I knew was a big deal when it happened, but at 15 I really had no idea WHY it happened. Over time I've learned about it little bits at a time and my view of things have shifted. Curious how this adds to the perspective.It's never too early to start the Pre-game festivities

I have the Blu-ray for Once Upon a Deadpool, but I haven’t had the chance to watch it yet. I think that will be my Tuesday night movie."The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command." George Orwell, 1984
"One does not simply walk into Mordor. Its Black Gates are guarded by more than just Orcs. There is evil there that does not sleep, and the Great Eye is ever watchful. It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust, the very air you breathe is a poisonous fume." Boromir

I can't watch Ace Ventura: Pet Detective any more.
Yes, I know for 1995, it seemed appropriate, but in 2021 and where I am now, it's "cringe," as the kids would say.Facebook: bcowles920 Instagram: missthundercat01
