Lazarus 0 Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Watched 'Salvador' again in Greece of all places the other night complete with off-putting subtitles. Love that film and James Woods is a class actor. James woods is great like. first film i saw him in was the excellent 'Best Seller' with another underrated actor called Brian Dennehy.

Happy Face 29 Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Slow start on here today. Hard Candy The scene to induce leg crossing from male viewers wasn't as bad as I expected. It's all implied where I was led to believe it was quite graphic. I was really impressed by the lass when she was acting the innocent, but couldn't abide her angry, vengeful personality which seemed very forced to me. Still a canny film. All About Eve George Sanders is my new hero. He's the coolest bastard who ever lived. I've only seen him in Rebecca before this, but in this he's the daddy. I only recently watched Sunset Boulevard which is very similar, and as much as I liked that, I think I prefer this far less cynical view of dwindling fame. Chinatown Not seen it in a while, and never commented when Alex brought it up recently, but rewatched it on Saturday and it is a fantastic film. On a par with Cuckoo's nest for best Jack performance.

It was on TV the other week, but I missed the start so didn't bother. I'll have to get hold of the DVD, I've just got hold of Five Easy Peieces too which was excellent. EDIT: And I haven't seen The Passenger either which is meant to be superb. Edited October 16, 2006 by Happy Face Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Sanders is the greatest underrated actor ever. I would suggest that you watch The Portrait Of Dorien Gray when it's next on TCM (should be on in the next couple of weeks). He plays a similar character to the on in all about eve but even more so. He's very good in Rebecca too. I agree All About Eve is better than Sunset Boulevard too.

I guess the reason I can't is that it's called The Picture of Dorian Gray. It's not on DVD. I'll keep an eye out, cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1260 Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 I always get that wrong. It's definitely on TCM either this month or next (I was checking the schedule the other day) if you have sky. It's an excellent film too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye - the whole of Europe is region 2. The only thing to watch out for with french dvds is their 'forced subtitles'. This means the subs cannot be removed from the screen. ive no idea if this title has forced subs though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
