Harry P. Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 Ok, not a new movie. Not even a "movie" movie, but a made-for-TV movie, and an old one at that. Last night I watched "The Legend of Lizzie Borden" on youtube. Not the newish one with Christina Ricci, but the old one from the 1970s starring Elizabeth Montgomery. Yes, Samantha! Wow... talk about playing against type. If you only know Elizabeth Montgomery as Sam from Bewitched, check out this move. She's absolutely terrific as the creepy yet sweet (and mysterious) Lizzie Borden. The movie is really good... could easily have been a theatrical release, it's that good. There's a whole version on youtube, but it was so dark I could hardly make out the images. I watched a version that's chopped into seven approx.15 minute segments. Kind of a pain to have to keep clicking on part two, part three, etc. but no worse than commercial breaks, I guess. Definitely worth the effort, especially if you've never seen Elizabeth Montgomery in a dramatic role. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GILnT9JHsBo
Guest Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 You might want to change "move" to "movie" in your title.
peter31a Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 Yeah, I thought Harry was planning on pulling up roots.
Austin T Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 I thought Harry was talking about moving parts of the Forum around when I read the title.
Custom Hearse Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 I thought we were finally get rid of him and he was gonna move in with Justin Bieber... I know, I know... That was below the belt...
Harry P. Posted June 22, 2014 Author Posted June 22, 2014 You might want to change "move" to "movie" in your title. Ooops. Fixed it.
High octane Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 I just saw the newly released movie Jersey Boys this afternoon and thought that it was great. There are some really nice cars shown throughout the movie and also in the closing as well. I will be buyin' the video of this movie when it's released.
Harry P. Posted June 25, 2014 Author Posted June 25, 2014 I'm a big Clint Eastwood fan... more a fan of Eastwood the director than the actor, so I'll have to check this one out. He's probably my favorite living movie director.
disabled modeler Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 If one is a nostalgic drag fan you must see the movie(Heart like a wheel)...I want to build about half of the cars/trucks used in the movie...LOL..
cobraman Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Glad to hear that "Jersey Boys" was good. My wife is taking me to see it for my birthday on Saturday ( hopefully after the model swap meet ) she may also take me across the street to "Claim Jumper " !!!
slusher Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Harry I saw that movie with my dad and hardly remember it. I think I will watch it again. I watched return to macon county and Elvis Presley in loving you on you tube...
slusher Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Hard to believe but Tammy is nuber one at the box office but I would not watch it if it was free...
Harry P. Posted June 26, 2014 Author Posted June 26, 2014 Harry I saw that movie with my dad and hardly remember it. I think I will watch it again. Carl, are you talking about "Jersey Boys?"
JollySipper Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 You guys will probably hate my recommendation because 1) it's a romantic comedy, and 2) it's in French, so you have to read the dialogue. But try a movie called Amelie, starring Audrey Tautou at her cutest and sweetest..... a good wholesome movie without any cursing or violence.....

I don't have a problem with a movie without cursing or violence. In fact. I have a problem with movies that have cursing and violence. I don't see either one as "entertainment," but given what Hollywood puts out these days, it's pretty much unavoidable.
High octane Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Cobraman, Jersey Boys is better than good as I give it TWO thumbs up! Be sure to watch for the cars through out the movie as well.

And I too thought it was pretty great, for a made for TV movie.
