Wasn’t a first date, but got laid after a viewing of it because it was so depressing they wanted to do something life affirming.
Soooooo maybe?
Saw it recently for the first time since it was in theaters. Can't believe how well it holds up, looks like it could have been made today. I'm talking both the story and the production.
Sgt Nicholas Angel be the kinda guy to report police corruption and mysteriously disappear the next day
Personally I think everyone should try to read The Lord of the Rings but if not that, then they should at least watch the movies. They really are incredible.
The Hobbit movies, on the other hand, really are incredible as an exhibition of late capitalism's shamelessness. It's good to see Sylvester McCoy getting work, though.
Cool Hand Luke (1967)
It's such a great movie. It has a fantastic musical score and a great cast. It has a huge number of memorable scenes...
- "Night in the box"
- Girl washing a car
- The boxing match
- The poker game
- Luke's sick mother visits him at the prison camp - Harry Dean Stanton sings A Closer Walk with Thee as he strums his guitar
- Road paving
- 50 Eggs
- Plastic Jesus
- Failure to communicate
People tend to only mention "Failure to communicate" scene but the others are great too. I didn't mention all the great scene because some are spoilers or near-spoilers.
A laid back Southern man is sentenced to two years in a rural prison, but refuses to conform.
and its about the violence of the penal system. idk how americans handle the deluge of movies screaming "PRISON BAD" and then :frothingfash: at the idea of not imprisoning people
End of Evangelion (1997)
If you don't take the evangelion anime seriously (as one should) then maybe the rebuild movies, they suck big time from an ideological perspective but a lot of normie weeaboos like them so apparently theres some merit there.
something by Almodovar (I'd say Women on a Verge of a Nervous Breakdown, or All About my Mother).
Pan's Labyrinth.
The Matrix.
The Shining.
Akira
House
