Amadeus - a visually stunning masterpiece, Tom Hulce and F Murray Abraham's finest hour.

Separate Tables - John Schlesinger's 1983 version of Terence Rattigan's world-class play. I've watched this one several times but keep coming back to it - mainly due to Alan Bates' splendid dual performances of the wife-beating Labour firebrand, and then as revolting old Major Pollock, whose character I like quite a lot.

When he utters those lines about why he can't change his life - 'I know my form' you know you're in the company of a great actor and a great writer.

Keanu is more robotic than his robot...

But I digress - if there was ever a thread on movie characters you'd kill at a moment's notice, Jaden Smith would be high on the list (alongside Justin Chatwin as Tom Cruise's son from War of the Worlds - another crap movie with another dysfunctional family)

Walter Hill's 1979 classic gang movie. Great closing scene with "In the City" by Joe Walsh

The remake's got a lot to live up to

**Clouddancer** · January 20th, 2010, 07:54 AM

An excellent & engaging Film based on a play by Noel Coward rather in the vein of Brideshead Revisited, or Bright Young Things ( Which in turn were both adaptations of novels by Evelyn Waugh)
A good English cast, alongside Jessica Beale - who plays Larita - with aplomb

A young Englishman marries a glamorous American.
When he brings her home to meet the parents, she arrives like a blast from the future - blowing their entrenched British stuffiness out the window.

Jessica Biel ... Larita Whittaker

Ben Barnes ... John Whittaker

Kristin Scott Thomas ... Mrs. Whittaker

Colin Firth ... Mr. Whittaker

Kimberley Nixon ... Hilda Whittaker
Katherine Parkinson ... Marion Whittaker
Kris Marshall ... Furber

I`m currently watching The Foot Fist Way

Very funny and about as low a budgeted film as i`ve ever seen

Trailer

I personally can't see what the fuss is about. granted I didn't see it at the cinema in 3D or on an Imax screen, but merely on TV played by my media player. So I probably didn't see it at its stunning best. Some good visual effects, however.

A paraplegic marine dispatched to the moon Pandora on a unique mission becomes torn between following his orders and protecting the world he feels is his home.

Cast
Sam Worthington ... Jake Sully

Zoe Saldana ... Neytiri

Sigourney Weaver ... Dr. Grace Augustine

Stephen Lang ... Colonel Miles Quaritch

Joel Moore ... Norm Spellman (
