I've always loved RR, but Newman was extra-darling in that one, too.


Yep. Had to change my siggy. What a great story.

Yep. Newman was darling too--guess that's why it made about a hundred zillion dollars!

Wow. Kimmi thinks 100 of the greatest films ever made are all "boring." I guess living in Cali has transformed Kimmi into Paris Hilton.

So, Kimmi, what should be included, Roadhouse? Dumb and Dumber? Melrose Place: The Movie?


:yikes:They made a movie!!! :clap: Is it on dvd yet? I love Melrose place!!! :clap:

you scare me goofer - because i think i am agreeing with you. (and yes i am over 40);-)


They just don't make movies like they used to. Resorting to remakes....ie: Oceans 11, 12 13, Sleepless in Seattle, Hairspray..and comic book characters.

I agree with you Ocean Lover. The films of the 40's 50's and 60's are great classics. There are very good films today also like Pans Labrynth from last year or this years factual and riveting Breach. I love films that tell a great story and touch the heart. The expression on film of human emotion or humans in difficult situations or moral dilemnas are things we all can learn from or empathize with. I think Clint Eastwood and Steven Spielberg will be considered masters in the same league with Hitchcock, Wyler, Wilder. Cukor, Ford and Sturges.

What was "Sleepless in Seattle" a remake of?

I find it hard to believe with all of the people writing screenplays etc, that they can't come up w/ something better than a sequel or remake!

I personally thought the 60s sucked as far as a film making era. The music was right on though. :clap:

What was "Sleepless in Seattle" a remake of?

Not quite a remake. It was an allusion to "An Affair to Remember."
