If she doesn't like "algorithms", how about "target audience", "focus group", or "demographic"?

"Are you a dream, Merlin?" "A dream to some... A NIGHTMARE TO OTHERS!"

Gold? Not quite, but it is going for £59.55, on Amazon.

Even if he did his original choice of 'The Monsters Are Due On Maple Street', after what happened, it still couldn't have saved that film.

Didn't they do Paris, in FALLOUT?

"Anál nathrach, orth' bháis's bethad, do chél dénmha."

Scorsese has nowt to apologize for, with THE LAST TEMPTATION OF CHRIST. The Roman Catholic church is in the wrong, and it knows it

"Johnny, boy! How's it hanging?... Really?... A pendulum?... What side is it now?... Ooh, you cheeky mare! Listen, darling, about London. Until you give us a date for a return trip, we're gonna stand here and hold our breath until we're all blue in the face."

Ah! "I was A Teenage Jesus" The film is less about Christ, and more about people's reaction to him. It concentrates on what's going on around Jesus, rather than his ministry. I always find the last shot of the shadow making a cross on the beach, quite moving. As far as fictionalised accounts of the life of Christ go, then JESUS OF NAZARETH is the gold standard. THE LAST TEMPTATION OF CHRIST is a decent attempt to depict both the divine and the human sides of Jesus as two halves of the same whole, in a clumsy effort to have them in conflict with each other. Of course, regarding Jesus, both the book and the film miss the point by a country mile, but that's not the point. They point to the divine and the diabolic in all of us. The film still remains among Scorsese's finest.

Thanks, dude (!). Way to ruin a perfectly nice evening

Only in the torture scene, with the Turkish Bey.

Why is 1941 ranked so consistently low? Come on, guys, it's time to give 1941 the love it deserves.

You mean THE PIANO? I have absolutely no interest in Keitel's dick, but I like the film.
