I've always thought it too bad that the White Rose Society didn't have greater numbers/support.

Thanks, Kid. I'm just guessing again . . . so Twinkee and I can be put out of our misery.
"Spartacus" ?

Robin Williams did a slo-mo spoof of knightly violence in "The World According to Garp." He mimed blood spurting and did sound effects, too. I thought it was very entertaining.

Thanks for going to the trouble of digging up the clip, Fred . . . but I'm gonna pass. Domestic violence sounds and images, like animal cruelty representations, are things that I just can't take.
Even the grapefruit scene in "Public Enemy" is a little too much for me.
It's not that I'm opposed to movie violence outright . . . it's just that this gal knows her limitations.

Wild guess here (and feel like a dolt since so many of you say you know what it is and it's "too easy" . . .
"Seventh Voyage of Sinbad" ?

<Big Rock Candy Mountain is an old song about a hobo's idea of paradise. "Rock candy" is very large crystals of sugar, even as big as hen's eggs, often strung together on cotton string.>
That's why it was an appropriate song for the "Ironweed" (1987) soundtrack. I read the book a few months ago and was astonished by how closely the screenplay matched the novel.

So . . . it appears there was ONE code that I could get on board with!

Roger Thornhill stands before a disbelieving judge in "North by Northwest."
Was DUI ever a $2 fine??

"Well, nobody's perfect."
"Some Like It Hot" (1959)

Not sure why that line appears in cross-out mode.

Maybe a good item for the Games/Trivia board??
Don't know if it's my all-time favorite line, but it's a good one, I think:
"You're one ugly ************."
"Predator" (1987)
Watch only if you're OK with multi-syllabic curse words:

Take a look at the clip posted below in this string. Pollack comedically addresses this conflict-of-interest issue.
I tried to cut/paste the link posted earlier by hly, but was unsuccessful after two attempts.

"Marie Antoinette" (2006) ?

"Jezebel" was the film I had in mind.
Take it away, Miles.

Sorry if my post was confusing to you, Tom. I never wrote anything about their appearances on screen TOGETHER. I merely stated that they were at the same event in Wakulla Springs, FL.

That was great. Thanks for digging it up hly!
I miss Sydney Pollack

Taking Chance ?

". . . Ooh, come along
Lord, children come along
While the moon is shinin' bright
Get on board, down the river flow

No doubt that "Creature" has been engrained in our collective conscious as classic monster/horror film . . . BUT, does anyone know if it's been spoofed anywhere? The act of spoofing may be considered an homage and cements an image in popular culture.

That's Henry Higgins in "My Fair Lady" . . . "Never Let a Woman in Your Life."

It was Ricou Browning. Thanks for prompting my memory.
