Lemmy in for #990.
In F for Fake Orson Welles says about Chartres cathedral: �You know, it might be just this one anonymous glory of all things, this rich stone forest, this epic chant, this gaiety, this grand, choiring shout of affirmation, which we choose when all our cities are dust, to stand intact, to mark where we have been, to testify to what we had it in us to accomplish�.
Bette Midler�s name in Beaches is CC Bloom.
In J-P Melville�s wonderful Second Breath (Le Deuxieme Souffle) Lino Ventura plays a world-weary hood named Gustave (�Gu�) whose last job goes awry.

Still not too sure how to link to just my 'consideration' selections instead of a full review page...
It's been awhile...

Noir
NB: Dixon Steele may be a violent killer in "In a Lonely Place". In "The Stranger" Orson Welles' character is killed by a clock mechanism. James Cagney's most famous "top of the world" speech comes from "White Heat", just before he is blown up. Fritz Lang's "Cloak and Dagger" stars Gary Cooper as a scientist attempting to stop the Nazis from reaching nuclear capability. |

Here's randall's #990 list. This one's dedicated to demon14c, by whose good graces my bride and I will be watching a reportedly superb production of TWELFTH NIGHT on B'way on 1/19. But that's not the best part: we're going out with a member of the company afterward -- and he's a fwiffer too! |

Viewted. Another good round. I think everybody is stepping it up a notch. I'm really enjoying reading these reviews. |
