bazzap.

bb....one last suggestion.....an off-beat movie that'z kind of obscure...."Joy Ride"...from about 5 years or so ago....a low budget sleeper that got some very good reviews....a mix of comedy and edge of yer seat terror....

Just finished watching Felon, pretty scary stuff.

I saw that years ago Mack, has Val Kilmer in it. I thought it was a classic movie, never heard of it before , just picked it off the shelf and loved the bejeesus out of it.

Watched 'Taken' today on the watch-movies.net site.

Pretty good I thought, about a guy who's daughter goes off to Paris to follow the band U2 on tour and gets kidnapped by an albanian gang that traffic women for prostitution.



Quite liked this too.

Young TommieCoughlin had recommended that film as a little sleeper Yusamile so I checked it out and enjoyed it too.

Your memory is still in good shape Yusamile which is a minor miracle after all the alcohol and drugs you did as a youth err... yes, Val Kilmer was in the movie plus Vincent D'Onofrio.

Harvey is one of my all time favourite films. Absolutely superb, one of the best soliloquys in movie history IMO too.

Suprised you missed It's a Wonderful Life off your James Stewart list though?

Hello Gonzo

Yes I forgot that one. But he made so many movies.
Also very nice were
Winchester 73
Anatomy of a murder
Shenendoah
The shootist ( small part/ rest by Wayne)

Harvey is one of my all time favorites too. Another one that comes in mind is sons of desert with Laurel and hardy.
