Alfred, everything should not be on DVD. It's good to have to work for things sometimes.
Like paying extra money a month for cable?

He doesn't think the kids today have earned it, that's all.
btw saw Something Wild and it was pretty great for the most part.

I was too tired to watch SW (not the Demme film btw) and don't tape anymore, but yes I'd like to see it someday based on the first 10 mins.

I'm surprised it doesn't have a larger following. NY looks great as well. Also I never paid attention to Caroll Baker in the few things I've seen her in, but she was excellent! Quite a pedigree in the crew for an independent as well.

I saw that film maybe 6-7 years ago. Scarcely remember it.
Ebert was on last night talking w/ Osborne in his robot voice.

i've sought a legit copy this movie high and low, as i'm a big fan of 10th Victim and Investigation. there isn't even an Italian DVD. figures, like Deep End, that it has been moldering deep within the TCM vaults.
― babytown frolics (Mr. Hal Jam), Thursday, 28 October 2010 18:08 (fifteen years ago)
It's been up on torrent sites for about a year.

I've got "It" set to record, as I've never seen it.
― Gukbe, Thursday, 18 November 2010 04:01 (fifteen years ago)
we could do an extended routine about what "It" is now.
― kind of shrill and very self-righteous (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 18 November 2010 04:09 (fifteen years ago)
well you ruined it now.
― Gukbe, Thursday, 18 November 2010 04:11 (fifteen years ago)

I'm really enjoying it!
― Gukbe, Thursday, 18 November 2010 04:25 (fifteen years ago)
I didn't know a lot about the silent era, am learning stuff!

I had forgotten that Edison was such a cutthroat businessman.
― kind of shrill and very self-righteous (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 18 November 2010 06:07 (fifteen years ago)

1925 Wizard of Oz in a couple hours -- a weird one, even less faithful to the Baum book than the Garland musical -- followed by The Red Balloon and Bicycle Thieves.

Was at a becabled relative's for Xmas, caught a bunch of stuff on TCM that I'd not seen before - 3 Godfathers, original True Grit, The Lion in Winter. Narrowly missed Make Way for Tomorrow, though. :(

Get yourself to the recent Criterion release, if you can. It's an amazing movie.

― something of an astrological coup (tipsy mothra), Monday, 27 December 2010 21:05 (fifteen years ago)
ok, sitting down to watch A Connecticut Yankee, tempering my expectations that it can't be as great as "Will Rogers stars in Mark Twain adaptation."
― kind of shrill and very self-righteous (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 29 December 2010 00:52 (fifteen years ago)
Speaking of which, did you know that Morrissey's favorite holiday movie is Christmas In Connecticut? At least it was growing up in Manchester

Which comment prompted the Archers to put a coffee drinking scene in every movie

At least that's what The Small Back Room commentator said
― The Decline of British Cat Power (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 29 December 2010 03:40 (fifteen years ago)
