Came across Always (1989) with Richard Dreyfus and Holly Hunter last night. Forgot how much I loved that movie. Was also reminded just how gorgeous Holly was in that movie.

I think either Gere or Keaton has somehow managed to keep it from being shown. I remember it was really good and really shocking, kind of like Al Pacino was shocking in "Cruising".

I'm old enough I remember seeing that at the theater and yes what an ending.

Vincent Gallo indulges his fondness for prog rock and uses King Crimson's "Moonchild" as the music in that scene.

I watched three yesterday that I have seen in I don’t know how long: The Eagle Has Landed, A Bridge Too Far and Saving Private Ryan. I wasn’t planning a WWII movie marathon, it just kind of worked out that way. I did get me to thinking of another which I know I haven’t seen since I was a kid and that is Empire of the Sun.

Somebody mentioned To Live And Die In LA here recently. That's a fantastic movie that I haven't watched in forever. Great performances all around, plus one of the greatest car chases of all time.

I also haven't seen Real Genius for a long time. My best friend, who has a physics PhD, told me that was the most realistic portrayal of what graduate school was really like.

I mentioned To Live and Die in LA in the Mindhunters Netflex thread when I brought up the film Manhunter was a prequel to Silence of the Lambs. I said if you like William Petersen in that film, watch his next film To Live and Die. You're right, that has a great car chase scene, who would of ever thought of going backwards on the interstate. However, the film suffers with one flaw, the same flaw that was in No Country for Old Men, I won't spoil it for others.

When I saw Silverstreak, I did something I had never done before, went to the same theater and watched it for a second time about a week later. That was about 1976, Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor best film. The next with them was Stir Crazy, not near as good.

"Requiem for a Dream" was always my go to movie for when I became in the I want to be movie scared mood. I could pretty much watch any scary movie ever made, shake it off in 3 minutes but that one kind of sticks with you.

And Jennifer Connlley in her prime!

"Memento" had a pretty creepy vibe to it as well.

Yes, I was a 10-11 year old girl when these came out...lol. I bought both of these on DVD, but I don't think I've watched them since I bought them.

Can't Buy Me Love was a good movie and I was looking it up on the IMDB and Amanda Peterson died at the age of 43.
