MyFavoriteFilms Posted January 18, 2011 Author Share Posted January 18, 2011 Maybe with FIRST KNIGHT, they were trying to avoid any homosexual implications. It is more hetero if they are competing for the woman and jealousy ensues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ValentineXavier Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Set in Italy, all Fellini: *Amarcord* *La Strada* *Juliet of the Spirits* *Fellini Satyricon* *Fellini's Roma" *Nights of Cabiria* ... to name only a few of my favorites. Of course, Italian directors, kinda like shooting fish in a barrel... So, I'll add *The Italian Job*, 1969 version, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyFavoriteFilms Posted January 18, 2011 Author Share Posted January 18, 2011 Yes, I tried to stay mainly with U.S. or British productions filmed in Italy. However, I did mention BICYCLE THIEVES and LA DOLCE VITA since they are so well-known internationally. I should've also added OPERATION CROSSBOW.

Two more non-Italian made Italy setting films - *A Bell For Adano* and Spike Lee's *Miracle at St. Anna* OOPS! HOw could we forger *The Da Vinci Code*, and *Angels and Demons* ?

MyFavoriteFilms Posted January 19, 2011 Author Share Posted January 19, 2011 I should've mentioned THE FABULOUS DORSEYS on the post for the big band era. I wonder if THE FABULOUS BAKER BOYS could be considered a loose remake...? LOL Also, WHITE NIGHTS seems to fit with the cold war theme. And for painters, I think we can include two recent pics: FRIDA and ****. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
