David Kelly 1117 Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 SATURDAY 27TH JANUARY THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN 6.10pm five If you haven't seen this you can't call yourself a bloke. Like the Great Escape and The Bridge on the River Kwai these are films your dad loves. And you should too. BEHIND THE SUN 8.40pm BBC4 I ain't seen it, but it's Walter Salles (who did the Motorcycle Diaries) so should be worth trying. CARLITO'S WAY 11pm ITV4 Brian De Palma and Al Pacino's look at a gangster trying to get out years after doing Scarface about one trying to get in. Sean Penn's best work. BATTLE ROYALE II: REQUIEM 11pm Film4 Absoloute horse shit, don't sour the first one by watching this. THE LAST BOY SCOUT 11.30pm ITV1 I always preferred this to any of the Die Hard's. A very enjoyable buddy cop action comedy. SUNDAY 28TH JANUARY ROBIN HOOD: PRINCE OF THIEVES 6.45pm BBC1 The accent doesn't matter, it's not a biography, it's a fun action flick, And bloody good. WATERSHIP DOWN 7.15pm Film4 Parents, sit your kids down and scar them for life with this traumatic nightmare of film horror. DAWN OF THE DEAD 10pm Channel 4 The remake, I've not seen it but it's meant to be the most acceptable of the recent spate of 70's remakes. THE FOG 10pm ITV4 The original John Carpenter one MONDAY 29TH JANUARY CROSS OF IRON 10pm ITV4 Sam Peckinpah, James Coburn, James Mason. Sounds like something. A FISTFUL OF DYNAMITE 1.05am Film4 Not Leone's best work, but still a fantastic film. Rod Steiger is a legend, James Coburn does a terrible Irish accent that it's worth watching for on it's own. Ennio Morricone writes the songs as usual too. TUESDAY 30TH JANUARY SOME LIKE IT HOT 6.40pm Film4 A very very funny film. Tony Cutis's Cary Grant is hilarious. THE COMMITTMENTS 9pm Film4 "Elvis was a Cajun, he drove a Cajun car, he drove it down to Memphis, and that's where he got his start." "Dat's fuckin blasphemy! Elvis wasn't a Cajun." WEDNESDAY 31ST JANUARY JOHNNY GUITAR 4.05pm More4 I haven't seen it and I'm gutted I'll be at work. Need to invest in one of them fangled tv boxes. TONY TAKITANI 00.50am Film4 Tony is lonely so he gets married. His wife likes to shop. He doesn't appreciate it. He's left lonely. NOTHING ELSE HAPPENS! Very slow indeed. I enjoyed it. VIDEODROME 2.20am Film4 I've not seen it, but you can't go wrong with David Cronenberg. THURSDAY 1ST FEBRUARY THE THIEF OF BAGDAD 4.05pm More4 I've not seen it but if, like me, you enjoyed Black Narcissus last week, it's another fix of Powell and Pressberger to hopefully satisfy. THE MAN WITH TWO BRAINS 10pm ITV4 Another Steve Martin classic for those of you who enjoyed The Jerk last week. FRIDAY 2ND FEBRUARY THE BIRDS 10pm ITV3 Hitchcock's the daddy really, his films rain blows on everything else with a snooker ball in a sock. This one doesn't have a score. Difficult to imagine it now when 90% of films rely on the soundtrack to provide the scares. It also explores the unexplained terror of living with a woman on the rag. At least I think so. THE WILD BUNCH 10.20pm ITV4 Another Sam Peckinpah one. Geet violent. And Ernest Borgnine is a personal hero. THE HUSTLER 10.50pm Film4 Paul Newman is the coolest mother fucker this planet ever saw. I don't know what he and Martin Scorsese were thinking when they made the infinitely inferior Colour of Money. If you don't love this film you're a nonce. Cross Of Iron is well worth watching, typical Peckinpah violence and a story of the Jormans battling against the Russians from the Jorman perspective. Coburn is very good in the hero role. Apparantly the ending is the way it is because they run out of money to finish it the way that was intended. Fistfull of Dynamite is not a patch on Leone's other masterpieces and is difficult to follow in places but it has some excellent scenes. Videodrome is tottlay bizzare but James Woods is excellent as ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted January 30, 2007 Author Share Posted January 30, 2007 Hey the Commitments is a class film. Loved it when I was little but haven't seen it for donkeys. Shit acting, but the soundtrack makes up for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted February 3, 2007 Author Share Posted February 3, 2007 What a really shit week it is.... SATURDAY 3RD FEBRUARY ALWAYS 6.40pm Film4 Not seen it, but I'll always mention a Spielberg film. UNBREAKABLE 10.50pm ITV1 Average film about a bloke who can't be hurt and another bloke who's always getting hurt. BITTER MOON 11.25pm Channel 4 IIRC this is a reet dorty film by Roman Polanski. A young Hugh Grant stars, can't imagine him doing anything so risque these days. SUNDAY 4TH FEBRUARY JACOB’S LADDER 10.40pm Film4 Post vietnam horror for Tim Robbins with a canny twist that has since been overused so you'll see it coming a mile off. THE THING 10.45pm ITV4 John Carpenter horror about a shape-shifting collection of guts and organs that terrorise a remote ice station. Canny. MONDAY 5TH FEBRUARY HERO 9pm Film4 Gorgeous Chinese film in the vein of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and House of Flying Daggers. The dodgy politics it esposes are a bit shocking but not suprising considering it was funded by the Chinese government. It's always stunning. If you've seen and enjoyed this (or the other two mentioned) keep an eye out for Curse of the Golden Flower which is by the same director and has been getting rave reviews. THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS 10pm ITV2 You've all seen it. SEX, LIES AND VIDEOTAPE 11pm Film4 Along with Reservoir Dogs this reinvigorated the independent movie scene in the early 90's. Always engrossing slow burner about one persons perversion being anothers normality, about frigidity being just as out there as extreme sexuality. TUESDAY 6TH FEBRUARY LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL 6.45pm Film4 A heartbreaking holocaust comedy about a man trying to hide the true horror of what's happening from his son by turning it into a game. Recommended above all else that's on this week. THIS IS SPINAL TAP 10.30pm ITV But only because everyone's already seen Spinal Tap. I can't decide if this or The Life of Brian is the funniest film ever made. WEDNESDAY 7TH FEBRUARY METALLICA: SOME KIND OF MONSTER 9pm More4 Very apt that this is on the day after Spinal Tap. It's absoloutley hilarious and I'd advise both films be watched as a double bill. THE BREAKFAST CLUB 10pm BBC3 A bunch of highly irritating and self absorbed teenagers sit around in an afternoon of detention complaining about how hard their lives are and how much they hate their parents. Still suprisingly watchable and funny. In the end they smoke some weed and everything is alright. Isn't it always the case? MANHUNTER 10.30pm ITV2 I've not seen it and I won't be spoiling it with an advert riddled showing, but Brian Cox is meant to be the best Hannibal there's been. FRIDAY 9TH FEBRUARY PALE RIDER 9.30pm ITV4 Clint Eastwood has made far superior westerns, but he's always worth watching on a horse. ASSAULT ON PRECINCT 13 11pm Film4 Another John Carpenter classic I haven't seen. Meant to be a superior sci-fi film retelling the story from the John Wayne western Rio Bravo.

luckyluke 1 Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 I've never seen Life is Beautiful, must watch that on Tuesday. I've had Hero on DVD for almost a year, but still haven't watched it. Thought it was great when I saw it in the cinemas, but I think watching it on my crappy telly might diminish my opinon of it. A film that deserves to be shown in Ultra Super High Definition (might have made that up) on a massive, massive screen. Hero on IMAX....now there's a thought.

David Kelly 1117 Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Manhunter is brilliant but and Cox is superb but I think you have to go a long way to surpass Hopkins in Silence. Assault isn't sci-fi as far as I can remember. Might give Hero a try tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted February 10, 2007 Author Share Posted February 10, 2007 SATURDAY 10TH FEBRUARY THE APARTMENT 6.35pm Film4 - Comedy brilliance. Hilarious. Superb. SHREK 7.15pm BBC1 - Funny BEVERLY HILLS COP II 9.30pm BBC3 - Amusing DOG DAY AFTERNOON 10.15pm ITV4 - Excellent ANY GIVEN SUNDAY 11.25pm five - Stubbly Pacino puts on a black suit and shouts. As always, entertaining. CITY SLICKERS 11.30pm ITV1 - Chuklesome BRAINDEAD 11.30pm Film4 - Grotesquely funny. DRAGNET 11.50pm ITV3 - 80's buddy cop comedy at it's best. ONE NIGHT IN MONGKOK 1.35am Film4 - Not seen it. Meant to be good. SUNDAY 11TH FEBRUARY THE ORANGE BRITISH ACADEMY FILM AWARDS 9pm BBC1 - For a chance to bitch at the frocks. CROUPIER 9pm Film4 - Excellent British thriller with Clive Owen that never seemed to get the audience it deserved SEXY BEAST 10.20pm Channel 4 - Not as good as Croupier but got a wider audience. Worth watching for Ben Kingsley who mashes up the screen superbly. THE SUGARLAND EXPRESS 10.45pm Film4 - A Spielberg film without sloppy sentimentality. Good stuff. MONDAY 12TH FEBRUARY SHOWBOAT 1.30pm Channel 4 - Not just the gays can enjoy a lavish musical, and this is one of the best. THE GRADUATE 10pm ITV3 - Fight Club for the 60's. OLD BOY 10.55pm Film4 - One of the best films in the Korean boom. Easily the best of the vengeance trilogy. TUESDAY 13TH FEBRUARY THE AFRICAN QUEEN 4.10pm More4 - Classic. DOUBLE INDEMNITY 5pm Film4 - Another classic. Watch them as a double bill and see that they really don't make them like this any more. WEDNESDAY 14TH FEBRUARY BRIEF ENCOUNTER 12.30pm Channel 4 - Bought this a while ago. Still haven't watched it. NATIONAL LAMPOON’S ANIMAL HOUSE 12.45am Film4 - Meant to be very funny. THURSDAY 15TH FEBRUARY BOYZ N THE HOOD 9pm Five US - Excellent film. Just don't call them 'boy' FRIDAY 16TH FEBRUARY TAXI DRIVER 10.50pm Film4 - Mesmerising. PLATOON 11.15pm BBC1 - I don't know because the bastard DVD I bought never worked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
