Maybe I should watch Happy Go Lucky tonight, it's in the have-but-not-seen category for me.

Eddie Marsan was great in HGL. It also made me appreciate him more in Miami Vice. 'it could come back on me baby!'

can you torrent a pirated version of the lot for those of us who can't wait for the release date?

These 4 are all rather sadistic experiences, but two of them are good.

Eddie Marsan is a good John Houseman in Me and Orson Welles

Actually, that's the least true thing I've ever written.

A lot of people I know saw the film after reading the book, and complained that they'd niced up Rob too much. But seeing it a second time, he is a complete bastard at times in the film, it's just that he's played by John Cusack, and everyone loves John Cusack.

uh Edw, I know it's ILX.
― Rage, Resentment, Spleen (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 3 February 2010 18:33 (fourteen years ago) link
honestly most comments on this film were complaints about how it wasn't like a real record store and the girls were unrealistic w/r/t hooking up with a record store owner.
― ('_') (omar little), Wednesday, 3 February 2010 18:33 (fourteen years ago) link
That's the first kinda lame movie on this list, imo.
― queen frostine (Eric H.), Wednesday, 3 February 2010 18:33 (fourteen years ago) link
Maybe it's because I can only remember Tim Robbins' hair in it, tho.
― queen frostine (Eric H.), Wednesday, 3 February 2010 18:34 (fourteen years ago) link
Impossible for a movie about a record store to not show up on the ILX list. Glad it was as low as it is.

i think i'll reveal 15 films per day (6 days for 11-90) and then the top 10 on the last day.

Kinda loved HiFid but didn't come close to making my 40. Best movie on list so far tho.

would like to see it again, but at the time i was working in a record store and the Beta Band bit was OTM.
Also: the first of the bromantic comedies?

this countdown is worth it to see what Morbs thinks about films. I would have assumed he hated High Fidelity.

Todd Louiso directed a movie called Love Liza in my hometown. But that was like 2003.

Cusack's monologues far superior to the ones in American Psycho fwiw

Gukbe, my crush on prime-era Cusack is well-documented, and this was pretty much the end of it.
― Rage, Resentment, Spleen (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 3 February 2010 18:39 (fourteen years ago) link
I saw Todd Louiso recently on CSI or NCIS or one of those procedural shows that's not Law & Order. Looks exactly the same 10 years on.
