Come to think of it, the remake was surprisingly enjoyable as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13372093.post-64095499532940469012017-03-21T19:41:16.041-04:002017-03-21T19:41:16.041-04:00Some terrific choices though none would make my to...Some terrific choices though none would make my top 5. <br /><br />Pretty Poison is such a twisted film with a pitch perfect Tuesday Weld. The Swimmer is another odd number anchored by a great performance from Burt Lancaster. Boom! & Berserk! are train wrecks (though compared to Crawford’s Trog Berserk! is almost decent) but fun in that terrible movie way.<br /><br />I have many films I love from this year but picking the top 5 really wasn’t that tough, though it’s hard to say which my number 1 is.<br /><br />Top 5:<br />The Lion in Winter<br />Funny Girl<br />No Way to Treat a Lady<br />Buona Sera, Mrs. Campbell<br />Bullitt<br /><br />LOTS of runner-ups-The Bride Wore Black, A Dandy in Aspic, The Detective, Don’t Just Stand There, Faces, The Fixer, House of Cards (with the divine Inger Stevens), How to Save a Marriage and Ruin Your Life, A Minute to Pray-A Second to Die, Once Upon a Time in the West, P.J., Planet of the Apes, Rosemary’s Baby, The Swimmer, The Thomas Crown Affair, The Wrecking Crew, The Young Girls of Rochefort, What’s So Bad About Feeling Good?, Yours, Mine and Ours (I haven’t watched this in years but I loved it when I was a kid).<br /> <br />I also have two entries in the exclamation point sweepstakes for this year-Star! with Julie Andrews & Oliver!joel65913https://www.blogger.com/profile/14526657073681774683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13372093.post-44376166416785870472017-03-21T19:07:49.517-04:002017-03-21T19:07:49.517-04:00The Swimmer is so underrated!

Love Boom! I'd like to direct the play. Jason, you must see The Bride Wore Black. It is, along with The Last Metro, my favorite Truffaut. I just read the book of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, and it isn’t anything like the movie. Love If…, Bullitt isn’t bad. <br /><br />My pics?<br />2001: A Space Odyssey; Zefferelli’s Romeo and Juliet (beautiful); Funny Girl (probably seen it 20 times); The Lion in Winter O'Toole and Hepburn burn up the screen; Yellow Submarine Terrific animation; Targets, Bogdanovich's first important film; The Bride Wore Black, Truffaut's ultimate tribute to Hitchcock; Isadora (Vanessa Redgrave!); No Way to Treat a Lady (Rod Steiger's best performance); The Subject Was Roses for the return of Patricia Neal, and The Night They Raided Minsky’s, an utterly delightful movie.<br />Piercenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13372093.post-8187872326512521262017-03-21T18:04:22.096-04:002017-03-21T18:04:22.096-04:00It's not right!
