@mikemovies Hip, young, fresh at the time. Nichols did a good job directing -- lots of great shots, storytelling, etc. Anne Bancroft is amazing. Last 40 or so minutes are not nearly as good as the rest of the film. Hoffman is probably miscast (if you know the novella).
@texasrunnerDFW@JillFilipovic Conflict builds character and life skills. I love Harry Lime's (Orson Welles) quote at the end of his monologue in "The Third Man" re: Renaissance vs. the cuckoo clock.
