A little movie query!

[Ernie]

You know, I'm probably like the only one but I gotta say...I really love these multiple question threads...I wish we could do them weekly, or at least bi weekly...they're great to reply to and read...thanks for making one.

Godfather - De Niro
Living Actor - Philip Seymour Hoffman, Zooey Deschanel
Dead Actor - fuckin' Bogart RIP
Comedy Actor - Ben Stiller
De Niro - Raging Bull
Turturro - Jungle Fever (makes the film better, lifeboy agrees I'm sure)
Nicholson - The Shining
L. Jackson - Pulp Fiction
Coen Brothers - The Big Lebowski
Martin Scorsese - I'll say Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore today
Steven Spielberg - E.T. the Extraterrestrial
Akira Kurosawa - haven't seen any
Mike Leigh - haven't seen any
John Sayles - ummm...Gimme Shelter?  
Alfred Hitchcock - Vertigo
Comedy - god, I don't know...Flirting With Disaster
War Film - Apocalypse Now
Crime Film - Goodfellas maybe
Thriller - Raiders of the Lost Ark
Sci Fi Film - Alphaville just for today, I love it
Black and White Film - ummm...how bout Raging Bull again

SoNowThen...I love the mention of Casino man, it's underrated as can be...Bogart too, gotta love him. I don't know if I ever really liked Jimmy Stewart, hate to say it...you really have to like his voice to like him and I don't know if I do. I know I'd probably get raped for saying all this but I'm being honest. I don't hate him either, I definitely don't hate him. I've only seen two of his films after all.

Oh my god, I had no idea John Cazale was dead! That sucks. Any details? Or at least the year?

Well, this definitely sucks...he wasn't old enough at all.

u are so cool. and i can see u still havn't got the hang of the search engine. well, keep at it, tiger.

[Ernie]

John Turturro Performance: The Man Who Wasn't There

Um, John Turturro wasn't in that...I don't think. Are you thinking of Tony Shalhoub maybe? The lawyer guy? He kinda reminds me of Turturro.

[chainsmoking insomniac]

It was Shaloub.  But I could definitely see Turturro playing that role too....

[modage]

the title of this thread is misleading. i find it to be "a big movie query".

[Pwaybloe]

You all better fucking watch some Kurosawa movies right now.  :x  :x  :x

Yup.  I find it hard to believe.  At just about any video store, you will find a copy of "Ran" somewhere in the FOREIGN or DRAMA section.  

John Sayles Film: sorry, but who?

This makes me even angrier.  I know for a fact that you can find "Lone Star" or "Sunshine State" in your video store.  They're there.  I swear it.  

And also, guys, John Sayles isn't one of the Maysles' brothers.
