That was my reading of it too. Mozart was the MacGowan character , buckets of talent but very irreverent about it. Salieri was an establishment guy, who like most rock stars fall short of this degree of brilliance.

If you want to disagree with someone, I just added it to the "Baaaaaaaaaaaad Films" thread. :D

Saw Primal Fear there this evening and don't know how I escaped such a good flick for eleven years.
Might have too many big actors for this thread though.

Shot Through the Heart ?

Thought of another 2:

The beat that my heart skipped
NARC.

Yeah Narc is quality alright

How about The Heart is Deceitful Above All Things? Asia Argento's directorial debut? Again a very disturbing movies in many ways, but very well shot, and very well acted

classic movie, the part where the russian women bites of his manly bits is the bit that springs to mind!

great acting, did Coburn win an oscar for this, he should have anyway


another classic war movie..... Patton

ah come on, it was an obvious pee take, it wasnt meant to be "serious" hence the joke in the Simpsons

The Wild bunch,
Evil Dead 2(love it):cool:
The Asphelt Jungle(Marilyns debut?)
Ice cold in Alex
Cape fear (original)
The killing
The lost weekend(Billy Wilders film about an alcoholic on a wild bender)

blood diamond. saw it there the other night. i thought that it was very good.

agree about blood diamond, leprechaun.

Id reckon Jackie Brown is the least popular of the Tarantino movies but i love it. If you havent seen it, its definitely worth watching. And Bridget Fonda is f*ckin hot in it too which is a bonus.

The Devils backbone, pretty good, from Guillermo Del Toro who gave us Pan's Labrynth,,,,,also set in the Spanish civil war.

Completely cheesey, totally unbelievable but for some reason it just rocks...

That's my fav. film of all time - love it. AFAIK it's either Chelsea's Headhunters or West ham's ICF that are used for as one of the gangs and supposedly there is a remake on the way :confused:

As in Warr-i-urs, come out to play-e-yay?
That was a good game aswell.
