The Long Good Friday

[Big J R]

I re-watched 'Goodmorning Vietnam', with Robin Williams, on satellite a couple of days ago.

 

I'd forgotton what a brilliant film that is.

[The Doog is King]

Mississippi Burning or 12 Angry Men (Henry Fonda and Lee J Cobb version). A toss up.

Good shout Doog.

 

Both great films. I think I've watched 'Burning' 5 times now ! Hackman in that is awesome !

Agreed on Mississippi Burning & Long Good Friday.

Enjoyed watching Michael Mann's 1986 Manhunter again the other night and I don't know if anyone else has seen the 2011 film Drive with Ryan Gosling but for some reason, maybe the soundtrack or the filming itself seemed similar.

Roadhouse

[missunderstood]

Made in Dagenham was factually and historically spot on, but would possibly only appeal to people who lived through that era, or come from the area. Surprised no-one mentioned the Kings Speech, and The Shawshank Redemption was a powerful film. My own favourites would be Bridge On The River Kwai, or The Dambusters.

 

Most irritating, Grease or Dirty Dancing.

Missunderstood - I disagree, I suppose you also dislike the likes of Flashdance, Footloose, Saturday Night Fever and Staying Alive

I have seen SNF and thought it was dreadful, haven't even heard of the other three, Didnt mind Mama Mia but that may be because I was on Skiathos when it was being made, and it wouldn't be that unusual to be sitting close to some of the cast while enjoying an evening meal. Julie Walters is totally bonkers in the loveliest way possible.

You mean you haven't heard of Flashdance, doesn't Jennifer Beales ring any bells!
