I saw _Pather Panchali_ for a film class. I probably have a review of
it, stuffed away in a pile of college homework somewhere. I did watch
it all the way through; I view it as excellent film, in the sense that
a challenging crossword puzzle is excellent.

It's all about "The Godfather".

My mom and I were discussing great movies - I said my favorite was "The
Godfather" - she said, "That's your opinion", and I said, "yeah, mine and the
American Film Institute."

I've never liked _Gone with the Wind_ much. Too long, and incredibly
overacted. I love Citizen Kane_, though.

The mivie I like to watch over and over is Grease. It was such an
upbeat film and the music was excellent. I also like the Cary Grant
comedies, except for Arsenic and Old Lace; way too loony for me. I
also like a number of WWII flicks starring The Duke.

the movie I like to watch over and over is Charlie Chaplin's "City Lights"
This is a film that never ceases to amaze me. And the final scene with
Chaplin and the blind girl always gets to me

"City Lights" is amazing. The whole story is a cliche (possibly more so
now than when it was made, but probably it has been a cliche since the
dawn of man), and yet it still has amazing emotional impact. No way I
could watch that over and over again. It'd wring me out. Maybe less so
these days, when my own life isn't quite so lonely.

We saw "Old School" last night. If you are Will Ferrell fan, this is
a must see. He's pretty darn funny. It can definately wait for a
rental, but is a fun and entertaining movie.

I saw Chicago over the weekend and would have much rather seen Old School...

I finally saw "Amelie" yesterday and I loved it. Tim hates watching
movies with subtitles and I told him he had to watch it cause slynne
said it was one of her favorite movies. And when we were watching it
he said "This is a TOTAL Lynne movie!" hahahahaha. Even Tim liked it!

I'm with Tim regarding subtitles. When I went to see Crouching Tiger,
Belching Dragon--or whatever it's called--I didn't know it was all
subtitled. Talk about disapointed.

RE#247 -- It was alright, but I dunno, there was just *something* I can't put
my finger on that I didn't like about it. I think seeing it on stage would
have been great, but I don't think it translated to the big screen. That
said, the costumes were good. And now that I'm thinking about it, CAtherine
Zeta-Jones is one of the things that bugged me. She never convinced me she
wasn't Catherine Zeta-Jones.

For a movie like Amelie, subtitles are ok. For CTHD, it was hard to
read and watch the action. He's a martial arts guy, and was was also
disappointed cause he couldn't watch both.
Must be that lack of multi-tasking men have. ;)

Hey, now. I found CTHD so easy to handle with the subtitles that I didn't
even realize it was subtitled by the end. If you'd asked me, I might have
denied it.

I too found CTHD easy to deal with subtitle-wise. And I can't usually read
them (my eyes are bad enough that I can't read AND watch the action, I can't
see half the action when I'm not trying to read subtitles, too). As an aside,
this is one reason I've discovered that I LOVE DVDs -- I can finally see the
damn movie, 'cause I'm watching on a 17 inch screen ten inches from my eyes.

I was in college and grad school when "art houses" showing subtitled
foreign films were commonplace, so I've seen dozens of subtitled
movies and am very used to it. Doesn't bother me. What *does*
bother me is a foreign language film with bad English dubbing.

I hate dubbed films - they can never really get the voices right.

I don't like dubbed movies either, I much prefer subtitles.
I also like listening to the foreign language and match what I know to
the english words. :)
