Last night was Mrs. 70salesguys turn to pick the movie. It was My best friend's girl.

Pretty funny, I have to admit.

In one scene in Tank's apartment, you can see what appears to be a silver-faced receiver from the 70s.

The other cool thing is that Tank drives a silver 67 GTO.

"Happy-Go-Lucky" (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1045670/), second film of Mike Leigh I watch (the first one was "Secrets & Lies" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0117589/ ). Interesting films for those who love the universe of Aki Kaurismäki.

Surprised my girlfriend with "Cape Fear" this past Friday night. She thought it was a nice movie. Nick & Robert are quite the pair in this movie.

A lot of action & tension is a major signature draw for this one.

The last two nights we've watched two recent LD scores, "Benny & Joon" and "Clear & Present Danger". Not bad...I think "Awakenings", "Amadeus" and "Close Encounters" are next in line.

No surprise with my avatar but I just revisited Where the Buffalo Roam and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas the other day.

500 Days of Summer. It's hot in Vancouver so we went to a movie this afternoon. Good film, we both came out happy with our choice.

I saw it for the second time last night. It's a decent movie, typical Coen brothers flick (i.e. it gets better every subsequent time you see it). Hated Big Lebowski and Fargo the first times, but they've become favorites.

Toshiro Mifunes " Seven Samurai" . Great black and white classic. A must see.

I totally agree.A great story(its been remade several times,including as The Magnificent Seven,and A Bugs Life).Beautifully shot,great acting all around,wonderful direction by the master(Akira Kurosawa).One of my ten favorite works of art in any form.

I've already seen it many times so this time I watched it with the commentary, the first time I've done that and it was pretty interesting.

Funny People,made by Judd Apatow,same guy who did 40 Year Old Virgin,and Knocked Up.I just couldnt get into it at all.It was almost 2 and a half hours long,and I had a hard time warming up to any of the characters.My wife absolutely hated it.
500 Days Of Summer.Wow,what a clever,thoughtful,well written and well acted romantic comedy.

I have avoided this movie for years because I have never found Val Kilmer to be a quality actor.

In this movie, I must admit he did very well. It may be that he only had to fake being stoned, fake sex and fake rock'n'roll that ade it easy (if he's sings in the shower I am going to guess he has enough experience that it ALL was easy to do).

Really, though, it was very well done, and I enjoyed it immensely.

There is a part of me that had a problem with Kyle MacLachlan as ray Manzarek, but it was only when he talked...Twin Peaks flashbacks.
