Miscellaneous Movie Musings - Page 63

A quick update on my Hitchcock cycle. I've been watching all of the Hitchcock movies in chronological order and I'm up to Dial M For Murder.

Anyway, I had a "how the heck did I miss this one" moment last week when I saw Shadow Of A Doubt. Holy crap! What a fantastic movie!

OK... back to penguin talk.

I liked 'Dial M' a lot. Keep in mind that a couple of scenes in the film were shot in 3D. That was an added effect for people seeing it in the theatre back then...

I don't think he's watching Sue Grafton DVDs in chronological order.

My 12 year old and I are going to ditch the wife and finally see Dead Man's Chest tonight. I'm just a bit behind the times.

I agree that on the whole Nacho Libre was awful, but I loved the characters- just weird enought to keep my interest. Not Jack Black- he gets on my nerves a bit, but the others. I wouldn't pay to see it again, but I didn't dislike it as much as I thought I would.

Lol, Alex, wouldn't that be a painful dvd fest. What would be worse is if they made The Cat Who series into movies. The Cat Who Baked a Quiche, The Cat Who Knitted a Sweater, etc. My mom was really into those. I read one when I was 13ish. Even then I could recognize crap. The cat moved a picture and the woman realized a neighbor was a pedophile or something.

I just have one word for M. Night Shyamalan:

Yes, GD, that's what caused the demise of Ethan Frome's wife in the movie 'Ethan Frome'. Very astute. Mojo for you.
