Do you want to see them? Whats stopped you? "I won't be wronged, I won't be insulted, and I won't be laid a hand on. I don't do these things to other people and I require the same from them." - John Wayne in "The Shootist" | |||

How is that even possible? On the other hand, I have a girlfriend who has never seen Animal House. | |||

You can't see all of them. I've never seen Rocky Horror or Titanic. | |||

Have you seen many other more recent gang/mob movies? | |||

IMO, The Last Great American Film made. It is the top in every department- script, casting, direction, costumes, music, editing, etc. etc. etc. They simply do not make films like this anymore.

I've been considering, recently, taking a day and watching them as I have always heard how great they are/were. For some reason, I've just never had the desire to watch them. Never watched an episode of The Sopranos either. Perhaps it's just the genre that doesn't do it for me? I don't know. I've watched other mob related shows that I thought were good. Just not these. ________________________________________________________ "Great danger lies in the notion that we can reason with evil." Doug Patton. | |||

Clear your weekend schedule. Grab a few bottles of a good red wine, toss on your favorite pasta dish, get some good Canoli. Put on The Godfather Leave the gun, take the Canoli. You won't be disappointed! Trust us!!! ______________________________________________________________________ "When its time to shoot, shoot.

When I was growing up my father used my bedroom for his book collection. I read the Godfather when I was ten or twelve years old. So I have had no interest in seeing the movies. And the inherited Mennonite kablammo pietism demands that gangsters expire as a culminating feature of cinema. I have seen snippets here and there. I do admire FFC for being true to book and including the scene about selling drugs only to the 'eggplants' because they have no souls. Watch a documentary on the mafia if you prefer. Try 'America, America' for an under-appreciated epic. "It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye". The Little Prince, Antoine de Saint-Exupery, pilot and author, lost on mission, July 1944, Med Theatre. | |||

Listen to CPD SIG. Some good Chianti, some pasta (I'm thinking spaghetti with marinara sauce, and some sausages, and a little of that Chianti, plus plenty of cheese), and Cannoli don't suck. Just watch the fuckin' flicks and then you'll be saying: When a thing is funny, search it carefully for a hidden truth. - George Bernard Shaw | |||
