Psycho 2 was so much fun. Meg Tilly was really cute. Its like something De Palma would make.

Really enjoyed The Long Goodbye (1973) on second watch. Gould was so good. But don't understand why there had to be too much light and mildly blurred visuals especially in the scenes in and outside Goulds apartment. The beach scene between Gould and Hayden looked great though.

Rod Steiger as Juan is as good as Eli Wallach as Tuco.

Morricones score for A Fistfull of Dynamite is among his very best. Contains both playful as well as melancholic tunes.

@rharvey81970 I bet it looks great on blu ray, Robert. Some of the scenes inside those cozy small town bars really make you wish you were there.

The Outfit (1973) is a haunting film man. I think it is the presence of the vulnerable Karen Black. Robert Duvall was such a tough actor. I am glad they finally released a blu ray of this tough small town American film.

@roger_bakes Yes Roger. Some films are unique. I consider The Outfit and The Ghost Writer (2010) to be two of the greatest films of place.

@tonytost Love the book and the movie. Hope somebody makes more movies with the Hoke character. Paul Giammati did a pilot I think.

Edward Bunker was co-writer for Runaway Train (1985). Never knew this. Screenplay by Kurosawa.

I met the cousin who introduced me to Trainspotting when i was in my early 20s. 23 years later, I am a drunk nobody and she is a successful heart surgeon.

@TeddyPeppers78 Teddy, check out Night and the City (1992) with De Niro and Jessica Lange. Not a great film but De Niro has never looked so charming and him and Lange as a couple in trouble makes the film worth atleast one watch.

[DixHandley @handley_dix80]

@CarbonHelium Heat 2 will be like that. Kilmers character Chris will be the main hero.

[DixHandley @handley_dix80]

@TeddyPeppers78 Yes. Told you I watched it last week. We had discussed it. I liked it a lot. But I thought Ed Harris was better than De Niro in it.

[DixHandley @handley_dix80]

@TeddyPeppers78 Yes. He was perfect in The Last Tycoon as well. A better actress than Ingrid Boulting would have made that film more believable.

[DixHandley @handley_dix80]

@TeddyPeppers78 Another great scene when he asks Harvey Keitel "How's everything in the pimp business?". I use that to greet my friends all the time.

[DixHandley @handley_dix80]

@foreignhorrors Man, you sure do watch some interesting movies.

Rematched Zodiac (2007) today. It is such a delicious police procedural.
