I don't begrudge Wise's point of view, but I still prefer DEAD MAN WALKING for the reasons I stated above. I like it when a movie can present itself with both points of view over something so very much controversial, and certainly capital punishment fits in that category.

You mean it was all down hill for Audrey after Roman Holiday? (wink).
Naw, she was still quite lovely in other films, but in ROMAN HOLIDAY I always felt she really shined the brightest in.

Gregory Peck, a class act, insisted that the little known Audrey Hepburn receive billing above the title with him. They would remain lifelong friends.
William Wyler had a good feeling about Hepburn after seeing her screen test and, even though she was a film novice, insisted upon holding off production on the film until after the actress had finished a stage run of Gigi.
In her excitement at winning the Academy Award Hepburn left her Oscar in the ladies room. (They would soon be reunited).
Always enjoy ROMAN HOLIDAY, Audrey at her loveliest and Gregory Peck at his most charming.

Love DOUBLE INDEMNITY, THE GUNFIGHTER, THE PARENT TRAP and DEAD MAN WALKING (which I will take over the one-sided I WANT TO LIVE! any day, despite Susan Hayward's wonderful performance, but the movie was too darn one-sided. At least DEAD MAN WALKING looked at both points of view from the pro/anti-death penalty debate).

RIP, Michael. Loved you as C.W. Moss in the classic BONNIE AND CLYDE.

Michael J. Pollard just passed away?! Bummer!
His role as C.W. Moss in BONNIE AND CLYDE was his most memorable for me. May he RIP.

42, 46, and 49 are my favorite of the bunch. 50....always kind of 'meh' on it, even though I like Anthony Hopkins and Emma Thompson.

I'm glad someone found him amusing. But all I know is I am NOT that someone.
