    • @ignatiusjackson235
      @ignatiusjackson235 Рік тому +1

      I don't know how anybody could deny his range after watching both The Night of the Hunter and The Friends of Eddie Coyle. They're entirely different characters with entirely different moods and motivations, but Mitchum's work is true to the bone in either case. Nobody's cooler than Mitchum. It's hard for some people to grasp how difficult it is to be that understated. Hackman and Duvall are the only guys I can think of who are in the same league as Mitchum in that regard.

      What Ebert says from 9:43 to 10:44 is very well put and he essentially summarizes a major problem with the film industry these days.
      Box office success seems to be the end all be all and the creativity and risk taking doesn’t seem to be as common.
      In particular since physical DVD rentals gave way to streaming services, the importance most studios see on theatrical performance is probably higher.

      @@lw3646 I'd say one's idea of a GREAT conversation certainly changes once you know how film works, have read literature widely, have a foundational understanding of philosophy, art, etc. But that doesn't just go for a conversation about film--it goes for conversation about anything. It's always more fun to have a conversation with someone who knows what they are talking about than to have one with someone who doesn't (unless you are the one who knows a lot and the other person is actually interested in learning about it).

      THANK YOU. I never got the hype and of course Seinfeld at the time made an episode about how crap it was. I'd like to add Leaving Las Vegas as overrated.

      I didn't like The Color of Money because I thought it was a disappointment with all the talent involved. I always thought the Academy gave Newman the Oscar because they felt sorry for him. Not only did I not think he deserved the Oscar, I didn't think he deserved a nomination. The actor who should have won that year wasn't even nominated, and that was Gary Oldman for Sid & Nancy.
