Re: Letterboxd Stats Showdown: Sidney Lumet/Woody Allen

Kanafani, do you take in account TV movies? For example Don't Drink the Water for Allen and Strip Search for Lumet.

Re: Last Watched

I simply adore To Die For. :hearteyes: It took me about 10 mins to fall in love with its style and manner. Great work by Van Sant and Kidman was in total command of her character. Need to watch it again!

Larceny, Inc.

One of my favorite comedies! Woody Allen's remake "Small Time Crooks" is great too.

Coincidentally, I was just listening to Minnie Riperton. Her song Inside My Love played in Jackie Brown.

I want to join this love circle for Point Break . Amazing and dare I say - a timeless film. More exiting and thrilling than most of its 21st century imitators. And I've seen that terrible remake. I've only seen 4 films from Bigelow, but she certainly has a strong command of the medium and I'm lookin...

Re: SCFZ poll: Sydney Pollack

Pollack replaced Frank Perry after he was fired by Sam Spiegel. I'm not sure how much of the finished film is directed by Sydney Pollack.

But if we deem The Swimmer unsuitable for this poll, I'll change my vote to Three Days of the Condor.
