hahaha, i missed rita hayworth’s glorious entrance into this thread
knowing her history makes that photo a bit tragic for me. damn you, knowledge! |
Yeah, she was a pretty tragic case. She was also one of the 1st stars forced to go through plastic surgery to make her look less Spanish.
Pre-surgery Rita Cansino ![]() |
margarita. yeah...

senses of cinema review of the great beauty
http://sensesofcinema.com/2014/featu...-great-beauty/ pretty good, but i don’t rate the social realism the same way the reviewer does. still a good read. |
needed a trash flick today. found the right one with:
BRING IT ON feels so 90s lmao. the clothes, the cars, the slang, the terrible music, and the “hilarious” sexual assault (weird the shit we laughed about 20 years ago). talk-back movie all the way. ![]() also, post-buffy eliza dushku on it. great as usual ![]() glory/glorificus from buffy is in it tooo hahahha. and finally: kirsten dunst has nothing on gabrielle union ![]() mmm-mmm-mmmm! ![]() lolololol |

It's one of the best films of the decade....a swirling, ebullient ode to a certain city (Rome) and the array of friends, hangers-ons and society within. It's also a mysterious and moving exploration of the way we meld the past and present, brimming with imagination and life. Scenes like the midnight entrance to an ancient museum, Jep’s interaction with a magician and his giraffe, and his various walks around the city, with gazes into the eyes of couples in restaurants and meandering streets feel like dreamy excerpts from a novel. I love everything about this movie. I've seen virtually all of Sorrentino's other stuff. I think I'm one of the few who adores "This Must Be the Place" and his early films like "One Man Up" and "The Consequences of Love" deftly establish his style and tempo beautifully. |
![]() Bill Murray rules on this one And then the sequel: ![]() |

![]() Watched this yesterday with wife. I read last year that this movie was originally written as a homosexual love story, and that it was edited to be about low-level italian mobster guys. The movie does not make sense as two cousins. it only makes sense as two lovers, fighting for each other. supposed to be funny. only sometimes funny. |
![]() Would never have watched this if my parents hadn't put it on while we were eating dinner. Actually loved it, really related to Denise (and, to a lesser extent, William), enjoyed the soundtrack. The rape joke was a bit ew, but I'm willing to look past it. I also love all of the names in the credits - Michelle Brookhurst as 'Girl Whose House It Is'. |

Despite the parody, I do legitimately love Willow. Can't Hardly Wait is also a good one but not as epic-feeling.

![]() Ed Wood I'm not the biggest Tim Burton fan but this felt like a real labour of love and was clearly an affectionate take on Ed Wood rather than just an opportunity to mock him. Kind of a love-letter to a whole brand of desperate Hollywood romantics that Burton clearly identifies with - even if his career has elevated him above them in terms of success. ![]() |

Yeah, that’s a really enjoyable movie. I haven’t seen any of his other works, but will try to find them. Thanks! |

This and Edward Scissorhands are the only truly GOOD Burton films. This is better. |
I've never actually seen Edward Scissorhands but as Ed Wood is the only one that I have seen that I've really, wholeheartedly enjoyed, you may well be right.
