Jackie Brown, Tarantino staple. Okay to good for plot and acting.
It must hold close to the record for use of N and F in dialogue.

I think it's one of his best.

I like all John carpenter films V ( although this is not one of my favourites), I could never understand why he was never given a bigger budget.
Quick film buff question, what was the biggest error on “Assault on Precinct 13”( my personal favourite, plus love the music).

This was on Film 4 back in January, I managed to Sky Plus it.

I used to make our kids watch Tiswas with me back in the day even if they didn't want to. Are you doing the same with MK Junior mate, especially with some of your fim choices?

Hey, her choice mate. If it was up to me it'd be Japanese anime.

No Tiswas re-runs then, shame.

Saw Straw Dogs again yesterday.Seriously underated film.Sam Peckinpah (for those who don't know) was the Quentin Tarintino of his day (only better).

Very true, but better in some of his films, The Wild Bunch is a TOP TOP movie.

 

[MK Shrimper]

Batman Begins - Not seen it in yonks. Very broody and the best of the 3 IMHO.

Yeah I agree.That's probably my favourite of his films.Though I have a soft spot for Ride the High Country aka Guns in the Afternoon and Junior Bonner.Suspect I'll be watching all these alone as my wife can't stand Westerns (not that she watched last night either).

Another,imo, very good western, modern, is Open Range, Duvall is excellent, Coster and Benning are very good.

Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia is my favourite Peckinpah.

You really must, great film.

 

[MK Shrimper]

Alexander and the (something or other) very bad day.

Not half bad family film. But who names a baby Trevor in the 2010s?

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

Saw The Deerhunter again last night.Wonderul film though I could have done without "God Bless America" in the last scene.

Warren Oates is great in it (His first ever lead;IIRC) but better in The Wild Bunch (IMO).

Yeah, Oates is fantastic and it's his best performance for me. I always tend to lean towards more leftfield/offbeat things, hence why I prefer ...Alfredo Garcia to the more commercial Wild Bunch.
