Jimmy Cagney, the tough guy Rocky broke down on facing the electric chair, however, it was an act he did, because these kids in the video, the dead end kids, bowery boys, looked up to him and might have followed into a lifestyle of crime in admiring the criminal character, Jimmy Cagney played. Pat O'Brien, a priest, asked Rocky to do something to disappoint the kids. The two, O'Brien and Cagney were friends since they were kids. That's the background to this.

"Angels Have Dirty Faces", a classic.

Alright fellas, let's go and say a prayer for a boy who couldn't run as fast as I could

I think early in the movie, they show them as kids, they stole something, Rocky (Jimmy Cagney) was caught, O'Brien's character got away... childhood friends.

He just found out something that would cause most people to lose it. He reveals his understand that hes slow, that hes been totally conscious of it the whole time and hes afraid his son will face the same challenges.

Too many movies, too many scenes, if others are like me, there might be even some stuff we like that we might be embarrassed to tell others. Some movies are just so famous and known by everyone or almost everyone, to those, I think Braveheart, Gladiator, Saving Private Ryan, to me, the whole movie is memorable.  Yep, too many movies, some are too intense now as opposed to say 40 years ago..

Wikipedia entry: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argo_(2012_film) (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argo_(2012_film))

I don't know about others but I saw Argo close to when it first came out... the CIA agent it portrays, Tony Mendez, recently passed on.. January, 2019... I didn't realize and it would be easy to miss in watching a movie in a theater how the opening trashes America's role in the pre-Mullah Shah-ruling  Iran, 1953-1979, as shown above.  I've said for quite a while, going forward, we just need to be as fair as can be always, when possible.  It's no wonder, the other side, can exploit past deeds, when we are trying to do right in Venezuela for example.  And Venezuela really needs help, Rwanda needed help but no one came... so it's a two sided coin.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Mendez (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Mendez)

In fact, Ben Affleck, main star, producer or director of the movie, probably did put some anti-Americanism in this; and maybe it could be defended. He makes the Shah sound terrible in this opening.

Good movie and I believe it is currently, in the Walmart $5 movie bin.

A few months ago, I saw "Hyena Road" which someone said was a Canadian 'American Sniper', maybe a bit.  Not nearly as bloody, not on the same level as the above movie which was directed by Clint Eastwood in addition I believe but "Hyena Road" I still found to be pretty good actually. It's not "Saving Private Ryan' but it was entertaining.

John Wayne, he was my favorite actor as a child all the way through until adulthood.  He was great.  Everything he did, I enjoyed.

Perhaps his most impressionable movie for me as a young boy was the Flying Tigers.  Read the book by Col Scott if I recall when I was very young.  Loved this movie.  Could watch it 100 times and never tire of it.  For me, it was about bravery, men who went to war to fight the Japs when they did not need to do so.

Right behind it, The Fighting Seabees, which again honored brave men.  It was John Wayne at his best.

And there were other WWII movies with Wayne, and I loved them all.

in 1952, he made what I consider his best movie, The Quiet Man.  John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara were excellent together in this movie, which spawned others.  All the actors in this movie were in great form.  Since I had Irish ancestors on both sides of my family, my own paternal grandfather from Ireland to the USA in 1920, it was that much more endearing.

So many movies he made that I enjoyed.  The Horse Soldiers, North to Alaska, The Searchers, In Harm's Way, True Grit, Rooster Cogburn, The Shootist, and many others.

As a lover of movies, boiling it down to five movies would be near impossible.

At the top of my list, Spartacus, my all time favorite movie.

And in no order, the following:

Ben Hur

Forest Gump

My Fair Lady


and one of the following, for they are all great movies:

Bringing Up Baby

The Sound of Music

Seven Brides for Seven Brothers
(my youngest daughter's favorite movie.  Watched it 100s of
                                                       times with her)

Planes, Trains and Automobiles  (watched it last night.  Laugh riot.  My work life was similar to
                                                          the role of Steve Martin.  Many years in airports, missed/late
                                                          flights, etc)


...and so many more great movies!

For the ladies...from my fav book

@mystery-ak

This exchange between Elizabeth and Lady Catherine was also great.  Their exquisite command of the English language is spectacular.

  (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONaPfzjl8qc)


I also liked the scene where Elizabeth's father gives her the impossible option by telling her that if she doesn't marry Mr. Collins, her mother will never speak to her again, and that she does, he will never speak to her again.

The Pope of Greenwich Village is a movie that I've seen a dozen times, and could watch it a dozen more.  From 'The Summer Wind' playing in the opening scene it grabs you by the neck.

My sons could recite the entire script of entire scenes that have stayed with them their entire lives. My baby boys are 34.

FYI...in Pulp Fiction, it would have been much better for Mickey Rourke to have Bruce Willis' role and character.  First of all, he was really a boxer and he would have been perfect with the Harley and all.   :laugh:

Please?  Any help is appreciated.

Recently watched a movie/episode where one person says to the other..."You must let go!"

The parable/script continued:

"Two monks sworn to silence are trekking miles over hills and roads
coming upon a young geisha splendidly dressed trying to
cross the muddy road without soiling her gown.

One of the monks picked up the geisha girl and carried her across
the road, setting her down gently.

He then gestured to the other monk and they continued on for the final 3 days of their journey.

When they arrived the monk couldn't contain himself and asked, "Why did you pick up that woman
and carry her in your arms across the road?"

The monk said, "Why are you still carrying her?  I put her down 3 days ago!"    :patriot:

John Wayne, he was my favorite actor as a child all the way through until adulthood.  He was great.  Everything he did, I enjoyed.

Perhaps his most impressionable movie for me as a young boy was the Flying Tigers.  Read the book by Col Scott if I recall when I was very young.  Loved this movie.  Could watch it 100 times and never tire of it.  For me, it was about bravery, men who went to war to fight the Japs when they did not need to do so.

Right behind it, The Fighting Seabees, which again honored brave men.  It was John Wayne at his best.

And there were other WWII movies with Wayne, and I loved them all.

in 1952, he made what I consider his best movie, The Quiet Man.  John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara were excellent together in this movie, which spawned others.  All the actors in this movie were in great form.  Since I had Irish ancestors on both sides of my family, my own paternal grandfather from Ireland to the USA in 1920, it was that much more endearing.

So many movies he made that I enjoyed.  The Horse Soldiers, North to Alaska, The Searchers, In Harm's Way, True Grit, Rooster Cogburn, The Shootist, and many others.

And a special mention to The Cowboys, which I thought was a special story, for it was Wayne and a bunch of kids, and the story came across very real and dramatic.
They were all great!! I agree. (https://i.postimg.cc/YL2N2zMX/30ax35g.gif) (https://postimages.org/)

You'll watch it more than once!

"Bob" (Tom Hardy) is the enigmatic bartender at this cousin Marv's (James Gandolfini) bar which is a "DROP BAR" for illegal gambling/book, etc..

@Hoodat

Please try this one out and let me know what you think.  I've watched it at least 3 times already since last Fall.   :laugh:

It's James Gandolfino's last role and he's superb!   But IMO, Tom Hardy is jaw-dropping. Even Matthias Schoenaerts will now look familiar to you, (Roman in The Mustang-2019)

Watched Planes, Trains and Automobiles again this week for the umpteenth time.  There are so many funny scenes in this movie, if you have not watched it, I highly  recommend it. 

John Candy and Steve Martin at their best!  One laugh after another, nonstop.

The end gets me every time.  I can relate a lot to the role Steve Martin played, for my life was on the road five days a week for many years, home on weekends only.  Dashed from a client site to an airport to catch many flights in the nick of time, fighting all kinds of harsh weather, traffic conditions, etc.
