Just Add Water (2008)

Johnny Guitar (1954) - Under Construktion

Well, its 2movies2day thanks to TCM

"a phony Western" –said by François Truffaut

Sterling Hayden
Who I will never be able to forget as Gen. Jack D. Ripper in Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb


Is Johnny Guitar


Or Johnny Carson


***Extra Note: Sterling Hayden, According to his IMDB biography, “cooperated with the House Un-American Activities Committee, confessing his brief Communist ties” and 'naming names'
In the movie, the character Turkey is made to do something very similar (this movie is said to be a commentary on McCarthyism)

I don’t think I have ever wanted to see someone get their comeuppance more than Ema

Natural Born Killers (1994)

"A killer social commentary"

A humourous look at the sad realities of our television/media culture. Poking fun at America's Bonnie and Clyde, this movie places a similar couple, Mickey & Mallory, in the middle of a murder spree, set in the 1990's.

Rewatch-ah-bill-ah-tee

I immediately wanted to re-watch this when I was finished.....am i sadistic? maybe......but the way in which it was shot, and the numerous pop culture references strewn throughout, had me wanting to watch it again and again, just to catch what i might have missed.

The Cast

Huge.

Of course you get Woody Harrelson, who i love in White Men Can't Jump, along with numerous other great movies

Juliette Lewis, who i usually find annoying, but did enjoy in this, as well as in Old School

Robert Downey Jr., who has what sounds like an Austrailian accent, he was also Austrailian in Tropic Thunder, and is murderous in his portrayal of his Geraldo Rivera like character

Tom Sizemore, a celebrated Temple University Graduate, my alma mater

Tommy Lee Jones, whose delivery in this reminds me of his performance as Two-Face in Batman Forever

Coach Lou Brown from Major Leaugue, also known as James Gammon

the guy on the couch in Half Baked, also known as Steven Wright

Edie mcClurg, who I'll always remember as the secretary in Ferris Bueller's Day Off pulling unlimited pencils from her hair

Rodney Dangerfield, who I love in CaddyShack, is great in his portrayl of Mallory's perverted father in the fake sitcom, 'I Love Mallory'

Things worth noting
The original Screenplay was written by Quentin Tarantino
The Copycat Crimes - documented at Wikipedia
The Trial
