Lost in America is great fun; and a terrific character study.
COMEDY: “Let it Ride” with Richard Dreyfuss
DRAMA: “Beyond the Law” with Charlie Sheen (easily his best performance)
Big Jake
Eastwood’s spaghetti westerns
The Outlaw Josey Wales
It sure beats “Wagon Train to the Stars”, right?
The film kept one off-balance the entire time. It was masterfully written and directed, while Alicia Vikander was remarkable! I was amazed at how well she portrayed her character.
Lost in America is great fun; and a terrific character study.
The “Nest Egg” scene is classic.
And as long as you include Silent Movies, you must include
The Birth of a Nation (1915)
Which many include in the top 10 list.
Defending Your Life, is another great Albert Brooks film.
The “Warts” song is the best....
“You’ve got to fight-ehhhhhhhhhhh.....”
She was so wooden it’s a miracle Swayze’s character didn’t get splinters.
