Great. Is there some sort of seal-of-approval icon I can put on my web page?

(Is that the version of Romeo and Juliet featuring 9mm pistols made by
"Sword"?)

I didn't hate "Moulin Rouge". I just didn't like it. The singing was great,
the music great, the dancing great, the costuming, etc. I just didn't like
it.

To compare Saving Private Ryan impact with American Beauty impact is a
completely mistaken thing. The difference among the two movies is gigantic.
Reaaly, this is an opinion from who doesn't know the difference between the
sugar and the salt.

I agree with you Maura, anything by the Coen Brothers is
pretty good. The Coen brothers is great and irreplaceable.
Each movie these guys is an art. The Big Lebowski is a
very very good movie but I think Bloody Simple and Fargo
are the best productions under all point of view.

re #82..."American Beauty" doesn't quite count as "overlooked" since it won
the best picture oscar in 2000. But it is a great movie.
Speaking of films that won best picture, and today might be overlooked by
younger generations, I was in the video store the other day and was
looking at a dvd and a kid of 17 or 18 saw it and said, "never heard of
it, any good?" The movie was "Midnight Cowboy", the 1969 best picture
winner.
"Midnight Cowboy" is a great movie, a story of friendship and love between
two drifters, Joe Buck (Jon Voigt) and Ratso Rizzo (Dustin Hoffman) It is
really a love story, about how we all need and look for someone to love
and care about. There is great chemistry between Voigt and Hoffman in
this movie. One of the most moving scenes in any movie I can recall is in
this, when Ratso Rizzo dies on the bus, and Joe Buck (Voigt's character)
puts his arm around him and holds him tightly as the bus goes down the
road. In a lonely world, if you find something or someone you really care
about, you hold onto it for all its worth. When you find love, you don't
want to let it go.

I agree with you Richard, "Midnight Cowboy" is a great movie.
"Midnight Cowboy" is director John Schlesinger's best movie.
I believe Schlesinger had luck of getting a good screenplayer
(Waldo Salt)to write this beautiful story. Unhappily Schlesinger
doesn't have a great philmography; his movies oscillate
between reasonable quality movies.
The performance of Dustin Hoffman is magnificent. Dustin knew
how to give to his character a convincing & touching charisma.

re #99
If you're not failing every now and again, it's a sign
you're not doing anything very innovative.

re #99
I forgot to say that we don't need to try the flavor
of the acid to feel its "impact".
We just need knowledge.

Marlon Brando remember me a great John Huston movie,
"Reflections in a golden eye".
This movie is a classic as well as John Huston for
the movies.

John Carpenter isn't a filmmaker,
he's a truck farmer.

Nah. He's done some turkeys (e.g. "Ghosts of Mars"), but at his best,
he's pretty good.

John Carpenter should work at a grocery store, he's a
great salesperson of green vegetables or something
like that.
Although his products have few nutritious as well as
the films he directs.

Yes. And I shall ask to him personal questions
relating to his life. Ex. "Did you ask Pumpkin
whether he bought the yatch yet?"

I'm afraid we're talking of the same Carpenter.
Are there how many Carpenter & Crane in the same situation?
