I'm glad we agree on H&M.
I don'...@Matt<br />I'm glad we agree on H&M.<br /><br />I don't care for <i>Being There</i>. It's an odd little film with some good performances. I haven't seen it in a while, though. I just remember the really out-of-place closing credits.<br /><br />I've been wanting to see <i>Shampoo</i> for quite some time. I haven't been overly impressed with the Warren Beatty and Julie Christie collaborations. <i>McCabe & Mrs. Miller</i> was a big WTF and <i>Heaven Can Wait</i> is good, but overrated, Oscar-wise.<br /><br />I've always found Jack Nicholson a little overrated. We're watching <i>Chinatown</i> in film class right now. I remember not liking it too much when I saw it several years ago but I'm liking it now. So. <i>The Last Detail</i> seems interesting.Marcyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03026474177609894679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4581610664264670624.post-31297421592770194752010-02-28T21:24:12.200-08:002010-02-28T21:24:12.200-08:00Hal Ashby made three of the best films of all time...Hal Ashby made three of the best films of all time: BEING THERE, SHAMPOO and THE LAST DETAIL, the latter of which is to this day the most amazing work Jack Nicholson ever did.<br /><br />I don't care about H&M, either, though.matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00269017909461737952noreply@blogger.com
