Great video! Thanks so much for joining in and thank for the shoutout!! You have some interesting responses here. I must admit I'm not nearly as familiar with foreign films as you are, so there are many titles I really can't comment on. I like your choices for favorite film and favorite script. Wages of Fear is an amazing movie. Francesco Rosi is a director I haven't heard of, but he sounds intriguing. As for your long movie choices, I'm not a huge fan of It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World, and I still haven't watched my copy of The Leopard. Your choice of North By Northwest surprised me a little, but I can see your point. On the Waterfront is a great film, but I can't call it a favorite. I'll watch it again someday. Kiss Me Kate is a wonderful choice to cure a bad day. I love Scorsese's early work much more than his recent work, although there are still some of his films I haven't seen. I'm afraid I'm not a fan of Tarantino, but I do think he's shown a lot of creativity. The one film of his that I still own is Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Thanks again for doing the quiz!
Loads of great choices there, especially some fascinating euro movies. Bob's Vintage Movies also chose Wages Of Fear as best script (I chose Back To The Future). I'm really interested to track down Cemetery Without Crosses. Toshiro Mifune in Yojimbo is a perfect choice for protagonist. North By Northwest is my 5th favourite film of all time, so you lose 1 point for that one 😂. Great stuff though 👍
Thanks very much for watching and commenting. I wanted to have a good mixture of films to talk about and mention. I kicked myself afterwards for not including Jean-Pierre Melville's Le Cercle Rouge as a double to Best Script as it honestly was the height of his prowess. Cemetery Without Crosses is one of the best SW's that wasn't made by Leone or Corbucci, I believe the Arrow edition is still available. Nothing wrong with a little difference of opinion with North by Northwest, I respect that. I don't really hate it actually I just find it frustrating that Hitchcock really believed no one would care about why James Mason was doing what he did. Take care and speak to you soon.
Enjoyable video, you've given me a lot of films I want to watch. Gonna start getting westerns as my knowledge of them isn't good and rated the ones I have seen. Fantastic taste in films, thank you on the tag. Gonna try and get a response done, when I get a chance
Thanks very much for viewing and commenting Tim, very much appreciated. You're in for real treats with a lot of the films I picked, especially the French ones. Some of the films I'm thinking only have US/Canada releases, so you may want to invest in an All-Region Blu Ray player, which I do highly recommend. The Jess Franco title is unfortunately out of print, but I think you can find it on secondary markets still. Take care my friend, and speak to you soon.
Hi Steven, One of my fav movies in "Raiders of the lost Ark" & still my fav in the series, never seen that movie "The Good, the bad & the ugly" 🤔🤣looks good though, giallo movies i got to be in the right mood for but "The Bird with the crystal plumage" is one of my favourites in the sub genre, love Tomas Milian & he was a total beast in "Almost human" I almost pulled the trigger on that set of "Waterloo" but its a movie i"ve never seen before, we do have "Cemetery without crosses" on our next episode on the Westerns For Life Podcast, i like the movie but do prefer others over it, Sergio Leone would be my fav director without a doubt !!!
