Jim's movie and birthday cafe - 17 August 2020

[BlueGreen]

Thanks for the tag @Kiwi2016 !
I find this so hard, choosing a favourite anything really. One of my fave films is Groundhog Day and there isn't one thing I would change about it. Or High Society - well, maybe I would change out Bing Crosby because he reminds me of my dad so I couldn't possibly fancy him. It needs a better/sexier male lead like Cary Grant.

Hi! What an interesting thread!
Well, I have many favorite films, many different genres and countries of origin...
I am a big fan of fantasy, so I was torn between Lord of the Rings and my other favorite of this genre - Labyrinth with David Bowie; LoTR is far more epic.

1..So what is your favourite movie?
Everyone's least favourite part of LoTR trilogy - The Two Towers

2.What is the genre of this movie?
Fantasy

3.Who are your favourite characters? Is he/she a villian or hero?
The Ents. The wise trees, who stay away of people's and other fantasy creatures' troubles, but change their mind at the crucial moment.

4.If you were given the chance to change the plot of the storyboard, how would it be like?
Some scenes are too long. Less talking, more action

5.Which are your favourite scenes?
every time the characters give up, but then find strength to go on

6. To whom would you recommend this movie?
everyone!

So what is your favourite movie? It's between It's A Wonderful Life and Scarface.

Does that mean that if a movie was made that was a cross between the two, then you'd really like it?

Think Jimmy Stewart snorting cocaine

I’m a go w/Ikiru

Maybe I'll try seeing it. I've seen Ran, Kagemusha, Rashoman, and Throne of Blood

 

[MisterBGone]

it was also coming on the heels of an adaptation of fyodor dostoevsky’s “the idiot,” who was one of his greatest influences. That one, was not perfect 👌 by any means, despite the use of another Titan in Japanese (& the rest of the world) cinema; Yasijiro Ozu,’s main leafing lady, “Setsuko Hara,” However, this one was inspired by another great Russian writer, Tolstoy, and his famous “Death of Ivan Illyich!”

You’ve got a lot of great ones left to see..
