Crappy you're clearly gay.

You should take up Bollywood, if you found Rebecca better than Rear.

While Rebecca was a good movie I thought it missed the Hitchcock factor, mainly because it was adaptation. Also, since I had already read the book I found myself making comparisons which is never good. The guy's character was much better in the book. Still, I enjoyed the movie and would watch it again given the chance. I've yet to see a Hitchcock movie that I haven't enjoyed.

No, I'd rather watch Requiem of a Dream a million times over. . .and then claim it's a master piece on drug addiction in the middle of a drugs rehab clinic.

I didn't regret watching Rebecca, but I definitely won't be watching it again.

Who said it was a master piece?

It was definitely not shit though. Exaggerated yes, one sided yes but he presents his side in the best way possible.

crappycraperson · 15th November 2007, 16:57

Ok, which one should I see next

North by Northwest, 39 steps, A man who knew too much, strangers on a train or without a doubt

It was shit, though. Stick some nice effects in and a totally silly storyline by a director with no idea about the subject he's trying to portray and bingo, the public(generally the people who have had no addiction whatsoever to anything let to alone drugs) will love it. Crash was another, racism for fuckwits.

Salvation · 15th November 2007, 17:01

I rated North by Northwest, not too highly though. His best that I've seen

Spoony, can I please recommend this?
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0338490/

You wouldn't regret it, it doesn't have any songs and shit, plus it's is part-English

Give it a try...

Spoonatov · 15th November 2007, 17:01

It's either those types or daft teen slashers thesedays.

Fuck off Hollywood, you've become gay.

As long as there aren't any silly dances in the middle of rice fields.

Agreed

Requiem was good for one story, i.e the pretend druggie's ma's

Crash was awful

I don't think many will. Or I hope not. If you've got it in your top 100, I'll personally walk over to Germany or India or whereever you are at mo, and stab you in the eye with a rusty nail.

That or To Catch a Thief.

Requiem was wank.

Spoonatov · 15th November 2007, 17:08

By the way, Laura loved Requiem. It's her fav film.

Dare I say anymore?

crappycraperson · 15th November 2007, 17:09

You' re all druggies...fuck off

In fact one of the things that annoyed me about Requiem the most was that all the druggies I knew thought that the movie was extremely cool and they'd watch the scenes where the characters take drugs over and over again.

crappycraperson · 15th November 2007, 17:12

Strangers on a train it is for tonite...

Mehro, if you have the link for sting or butch cassidy, pm them to me.

Fuckwits without doubt.

That effects were very cool, though. MTV like.

crappycraperson · 15th November 2007, 17:13

That goes for Come and see as well...infact mail me any links you have of movies you recommend.

mehro · 15th November 2007, 17:17

Come and See will be near impossible to find. I suggest you try to download it using torrents or rent it.

crappycraperson · 15th November 2007, 17:20

Ok, is it a foreign movie?

Gimme a while, I'll send you a PM in the weekend when I'm arsed. Worse comes I'll upload the darn thing

mehro · 15th November 2007, 18:44

Crappy, watch the Man Who Would Be king. Not one for the list but a good movie with Sean Connery and Michael Caine.
