RE: Films worth a second look

Posted by jimdgoulding@yahoo.com on July 27, 2009 at 14:20:58:
Two brit comedies . . Peter Cook and Dudley Moore's Bedazzled and The Wrong Box with a brilliant cameo by Peter Sellers. They were made in the 60's and the latter only recently made it to DVD. And a third, Local Hero, a tender comedy with a funny Burt Lancaster if you can believe that.
A handful of others: The Quiet American- a love story for old men and commentary on modern day colonialism; Lone Star (John Sayles is a fine writer/director, IMO, and his The Brother From Another Planet is a hoot); Atlantic City, a Louis Malle movie also with Burt Lancaster it just so happens and Susan Sarandon in her first (I think) movie.
Worth a first look if you haven't seen them.
