Time to watch some of these again. Haven't seen "The Godfather" or "On The Waterfront" in years, though I love both of 'em. I'm ashamed to admit that I've never seen "The Sweet Smell Of Success" - will be off to my local video store on Friday.

Just as soon as I see this movie I will register my outrage/pleasure with your decision!!!
I think you'll be pleased, Misha. And damn good to see you! what about broken toes? I broke the 5th metatarsal of my left foot falling over a curb. I can remember the doctor (Dr. Love, I shit you not) saying, if it was your left foot, we'd have something to worry about, but since it's your right foot...
What? Dr. Love had a problem!!!! I broke the middle toe on my left foot. What a collossal pain in the ass. All this limping and compensating has the whole rest of my body aching. All over a freakin toe!!!!

Dr. was really nice at hospital....didn't even touch it...thankfully it broke and stayed in line.....

Glad to be back....I think....we'll see what you folks are up to these days!! Besides thinking of me as characters in movies I haven't seen!!!!

:wink: Misha---toe is broken, but still full of piss and vinegar
Where are the strong?

how did you know I once dated the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man?

Thank you, BWAP. Finally, a "love interest" role, rather than the "wise-cracking sidekick" role!


El Vez, for your Godfather cast, what do you think about WHAR as Carlo?

Moody, I had an obstetrician named Dr. Love. No kidding.

Reservoir Dogs

K-Billy DJ/Steven Wright: John & Martin Foyle (because they're full of useful music information)

Mr. Blonde/Michael Madsen: So Lacklustre (because I think he'd cut off an ear if he had to)
Mr. Brown/Quentin Tarantino: Blue Chair (because he talks more than anyone in the room)
Mr. Orange/Tim Roth: Noiseradio (because I sometimes go undercover)
Mr. Blue/Eddie Bunker: A Rope Leash (because he liked Madonna's early stuff. Borderline. But after she got off on that Papa Don't Preach phase, he tuned out.)
Mr. White/ Harvey Keitel: Bobster (because I bet he's a big Lee Marvin fan)
Mr. Pink/Steve Buscemi: WHAR (because he's a... Nevermind. It's too easy)

Boy, do I feel uncultured right now. I have no idea who my character is, other than that he's probably drunk and depressed all the time. (This is O'Neil, right?)

It's a given with any O'Neil play not called "Ah, Wilderness!" that the characters are very drunk and very depressed. The play should be readily available at any half-decent bookstore and the '62 film version (directed by Lumet) came out on dvd not too long ago. I recommend you dive into both over the holidays. Now that I think of it, that's sort of a sick thing to suggest to someone I actually really like.

otis, is the UK Adam Sandler-proof? The Waterboy was probably called something else over there - maybe The Water Chap? The Drinks Fellow?

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120484/

Paco says things like "I am not what you would call a handsome man. The good Lord chose not to bless me with... with charm, athletic ability... or a fully functional brain, " and he's played by Ron Howard's brother.

Goody, I hope your Dr. Love knew his right from his left!
