CinemaInternational Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Edit: i just viewed To Die For for 1995. starts off as wickedly funny, flattens a bit before the end but its still a knockout. Fine work from Nicole Kidman, Joaquin Phoenix, Matt Dillon, and Illeana Douglas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Spitfire Grill 8. Shine 9. Jerry Maguire 10. Trainspotting Also of note: Bottle Rocket, The First Wives' Club, The Mirror Has Two Faces, Grace of My Heart, Unhook the Stars, Jane Eyre, Emma, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Blood and Wine, Fly Away Home, The Preacher's Wife, Hard Eight, Twelfth Night, Big Night, One Fine Day, Matilda, Beyond Silence Curiosities: The Evening Star (sequel to Terms of Endearment. Script is messy, and despite deaths, feels like a 2 hour sitcom, yet the performers do all they can to try to push it over) Flirting with Disaster (Quirky with a capital Q. I like quirky films, but this was too much for me. Mary Tyler Moore is wonderful in it though.) Mrs. Winterbourne (a Noir retooled as a broad comedy, Shirley MacLaine still does wonders with her too few scenes) 101 Dalmatians (live-action remake starts well but becomes Home Alone redux in second half. Still entertaining though, with Glenn Close having a blast as Cruella) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LawrenceA Posted May 4, 2017 Author Share Posted May 4, 2017 10. Paradise Lost: The Child Murders at Robin Hood Hills I remember seeing this the first time. It upset me more than any other film I had ever seen, I think. I was seething with rage at the miscarriage of justice. Since then, the story has developed and things have been somewhat addressed. There have been two sequel documentaries, another one done by a different group of filmmakers (2012's West of Memphis), and a fictionalized version in 2013 (Devil's Knot). I've also become much more cynical, pessimistic, and jaded, and stories like this don't surprise me any longer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I showed it to my own mother and she didn't quite get it though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
