Your Ten Of Ten
Peter Wells | June 24, 2008Lovely Reader Paul Mulroney posted his ten of ten list in the comments of the latest episode, but was a bit too eager for his free tickets, and posted his full address with the list… To protect his privacy i’ve deleted the comment, but here is his list for all to enjoy.
Top 10’s, not in order
Fisher King, for Robin Williams, Jeff Bridges and Mercedes Rule
Falling Down, for Michael Douglas
The Seven Samurai, better than the Magnificent Seven
The Trouble with Harry, for a young Shirley McLean and a very quirky story
Strangers on a Train, for Farley Granger and Guy Haynes
The Wall, for Bob Geldoff as a jaded rock star. (OK, I was stoned the first time I saw it)
To Kill a Mockingbird, for Gregory Peck, his best ever work
North by Northwest, Cary Grant and Eva Marie Saint
Reservoir Dogs, for the gratuitous violence set to cool music
Rope, a cinematic play, brilliantly shot in long continuous scenesand for a second ticket, my most disappointing movies, again not in any order
Indiana Jones 4
The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy
Mr and Mrs Smith, the Hitchcock version which nearly made me burn my
Hitchcock collection
Starwars Episode1
Kill Bill 1 & 2
Reds, how did that win an academy award
La Dolce Vita, ditto
I am Legend, making it a zombie movie killed it
I don’t want to think of any more, it leaves a bad taste
I’ll keep updating this post as others contribute, so you’re ideas don’t get lost in the comments.
