ivan96822 Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 just realised I don't own a copy of - Deep Cover - Laurence Fishburne / Jeff Goldblum, I love everything about this movie down to the way its shot... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan96822 Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 I disagree about Deep Cover with Fishburne. The movie is excellent up until Felix Barbosa gets killed in the police pursuit...After that, the movie just fizzles out and comes to a complete halt.

It is strange but when i first saw the movie there was quite a spray given to the CIA and the government's policy with regard to Colombia and the drug trade, A particular president was named but when i bought the DVD this segment somehow had dissappeared. It somehow summed up the whole hipocracy with both the international and domestic drug industry and the complicity of governments .. I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lomatopo Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 I know we are enthralled with how technology has moved on but for me some old black and white stuff is really excellent. African Queen, Ice Cold in Alex, the list goes on. Have to agree - very few movies can match the build up of suspense in "The 39 Steps" despite all manner of tech wizardry... Hitchcock was a great director. he knew how to maintain suspense and seemed also to adapt books well to the screen. Some personal faves of mine he directed are; Dial M for Murder The Birds (Daphne Du Maurier novel) To Catch a Thief (David Dodge novel) North by Northwest Strangers on a Train (Patricia Highsmith novel, author who also did Ripley) Vertigo (based on a French novel I believe) I think "Vertigo" recently displaced "Citizen Kane" as the "best film" by consensus. http://blogs.indiewire.com/theplaylist/read-new-all-time-top-10s-from-martin-scorsese-woody-allen-francis-ford-coppola-quentin-tarantino-more-20120803 Slap-dash ten plus one: The Wages of Fear The River The Seven Samurai Pather Panchali A Canterbury Tale Duay Klao Kung <deleted> Hustle Hero Le Samourai City of God Scarface Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
