dark and stormy knight
The new bio-pic from and about Steven Spielberg. No way to tell fact from Hollywood fact but as with all movies of this sort it hardly matters if it’s well made and well told which this one definitely is.
That's an absolute classic. Remember watching it as a kid, along with Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines
Brilliant film, not seen it in years!FREEBIE AND THE BEAN (1974) This film also has intense chase scenes; though it was excluded from TCM's chase theme. A dark comedy depicts plain clothes cops in many activities, even one of which would (I hope) have them suspended.
Sergeant Tim Walker (James Caan) aka 'Freebie' as the most extreme, while Sergeant Dan Delgado aka 'Bean' (Alan Arkin) usually shows restraint. They are out to get 'Red' Meyers (Jack Kruschen) who has been the boss of a number racket for 40 years. Comical things occur throughout the film, and the final event, which I will not spoil, seems much too extreme.
A very enjoyable film!
The 1976 tv-movie is rather creepy.Black Dahlia (2006) D: Brian De Palma S: Josh Hartnett, Hilary Swank
Several years back, I read the James Ellroy novel which this film is based. And prior to that, I read various articles on the real Black Dahlia murder case. This movie only deals with the Black Dahlia murder in a peripheral way. The main story is about a love tringle that morphs into a rectangle, then back to a different triangle. I think De Palma was trying for another L.A. Confidential, but sadly it doesn't quite work here.
Poltergeist
Caught it halfway through, seen it loads of times but it never gets old. The definition of a classic
