3 Days In The Valley-Many fine actors in several intertwining stories.From the mid nineties.And Charlize Theron is one sexy evil doer.
Brazil-Terry Gilliam(of Monty Python animation fame)creates a satirical nightmare future world,with art direction that just has to be seen to be believed.
The Lookout-The extremely talented kid from 3rd Rock from the Sun stars in this thriller/character study from a few years ago.
Freeway-Reese Witherspoon,Kiefer Sutherland.Mid nineties insanity.Not one likeable,redeemable character in the whole cast.And funny as hell.
Project A-Jackie Chan,Sammo Hung in their best film.Funny,and action scenes so good,so clever they will have you shaking your head in disbelief.
Floundering-A very well written social commentary on race and class set in L.A. right after the riots.Thoughtful and engaging,with several star cameos.
They All Laughed-Screwball comedy set in NY in 1981 or so.Ben Gazarra, Audrey Hepburn,John Ritter,Colleen Camp.Very much of its time and place,and quite funny,and a little touching.Notable as the last screen appearance of Dorothy Stratten.
Contains one of my all time favorite lines-"Im on the narrow edge of a precipice,and even the slightest additional irritation could send me hurling into a gaping abyss,from which I doubt I would recover."
