Flicks To Hold You Over
"Full
Metal Jacket" Reviewed by DLFerguson. "...Ermey is simply wonderful
in the role and he has a scene where he finds some contraband food in
the footlocker of one of his recruits and the cat just simply loses his
mind. The scene has even more power if you do your research and find out
that R. Lee Ermey's dialog is this movie was actual things he used to
say to his real-life recruits. Suddenly it doesn't become so funny."
Where
The Side Walk Ends - If "The Maltese Falcon" and "Kiss Me Deadly"
are the bookends of the Film Noir Genre, "Where The Sidewalk Ends" helps
to better define it. When you think of this genre, this The Otto
Preminger film's images are what usually comes to mind.
"Moon"
- Science Fiction is at its best when it takes normal people like you
and I and puts them in extraordinary circumstances and teaches something
about ourselves. To the movie studios I ask - Give us space adventures,
but also allow them the opportunity to make us think. Give us more
"Moon."
