The Two Worlds of Jennie Logan (1979)
fyi
I've just purchased this region 0 DVD from http://stores.warplowmerchandising.com/StoreFront.bok?cart_id=2554983 (type "Jennie Logan" in the search box) For my Mother. She's always saying what a great film this is and I'm hoping it arrives to make her Christmas. She says it's the best film she's ever seen and I've been looking forever for a copy.
I hope i'm not breaching IMDb guidelines with this, but considering the number of people commenting, saying how much they loved the story, I'm hoping it won't be rejected.
Film lovers love films. If it makes as happy this time around I'm happy to give you a route to purchasing it.
I hope you all buy it and it's as good as she says it is. Merry Xmas.
The Royal Tenenbaums (2001)
Just watched this, had to comment...
I'm not very good with words so please bear with me. This film is, (in my opinion), a work of genius. It made me laugh, not often, but I found myself with a smile on my face most of the time. Gene Hackman (who I always doubted frankly) turns in his best work. Ever. Gwyneth Paltrow is equally engaging. Ben Stiller shows a side I didn't know he even possessed but Luke Wilson, as ex-sports pro Richie Tenenbaum is a real treat. His role is, er, let's say far from your typical family-drama role, and he handles it wonderfully. I haven't even mentioned Bill Murray and his child study yet. Another stunning cameo double-act with some blindingly funny lines. The soundtrack? Well, if you had listed it I would have scorned you and referred you to my parents, as it's not really my thing, but in the film itself it works brilliantly. Ruby Tuesday and Hey Jude will never sound the same to me ever again.
I've just re-read this and I don't think i put it across very well. If you find yourself with a spare evening this week with nothing else to do, pop down to your local video store and rent this. You'll be glad you did. Trust me. Any film who's funniest line centres around a suicide note must be worth watching once.
