Good to see you back here, pizza!

Now, lookit these

Crib notes:

1940 Zorro features a certain Tyrone.

Mel Gibson is Tom Mullen in Ransom.

In The Good Doctor, said medic gets so attached to his patient that he devises ways to keep her with him.

Lemmy in for #948.

I was getting ready for more pizza!


I Dood It�Red Skelton is a smitten pants presser in this loose remake of Buster Keaton�s Spite Marriage.

Floating Weeds is a more ambitious colour remake of Ozu�s A story of Floating Weeds.


In Peter Medak�s odd film �Negatives� Glenda Jackson gets off when hubby Peter McEnery dresses up as the early 20th century wife killer Dr. Crippen. When Diane Cilento enters the picture things get even weirder.

Also included is a review with no fewer than three hyphens.

Here's randall's #948 list.

"Four ever European"

I hope that my review for Just the Wind (Csak a sz�l) isn't too flippant: I couldn't think of anything else for the film. It's about a group of Romanies who are on edge after their neighbours start being murdered.

Me and You (Io e te) is set in a basement. One of the two main characters is addicted to heroine.


In Britain at least, many people called the 2000s the Noughties.

Spoiler for The Best Offer potentially in the review and definitely here: Sylvia Hoeks's character tricks Geoffrey Rush's standoffish auctioneer into falling in love with her in order to steal his art.

Little bit late myself...

Eighties

NB:
In "Mephisto" an actor famed for playing Mephistopheles aligns with the fascists to continue acting in Nazi Germany.
"Body Heat" is a remake of "Double Indemnity".
Martin Brest directed "Midnight Run" which sees Robert De Niro and Charles Grodin team up.
Dean Proffitt persuades an heiress with amnesia that she is his wife in "Overboard".
Mark Harmon plays a teacher who takes on a class of misfits in "Summer School".
