Reader's Choice - Let's watch _____ together
Thursday, March 30, 2023 at 8:01AM We'll be discussing the comedy Dick (1999) this weekend. But how about next weekend (April 7th/8th)? We're starting the voting earlier so you have more time to decide. Voting closes this Sunday. So which film, hitting a major streaming service on April 1st, will it be?
UPDATE: Marnie won in a squeaker over Bound with 39% versus 38% of the vote respectively.

I chose Marnie as it's the only one I feel is worth watching again plus Louise Latham should have won the supporting actress Oscar for it.
AH and Bound are both hugely overrated and i'm not a fan of Jennifer Tilly either,why did you choose The Blue Lagoon it's awful or is that the point.
Death and the Maiden with Sigourney,The Legend of Lylah Clare with Kim Novak,Harlow with Carroll Baker and The Killing of Sister George are some i'd like to see discussed.
A lot has said about Bound and American Hustle. My choice is Blue Lagoon because it’ll be fun to read.
In the words of Jennifer Tilly as Tiffany as Jennifer Tilly: Bound is on cable. Gina Gershon is fingering me.
Marnie is such an odd film and it would be interesting to discuss how Hitch's obsession with Tippi is portrayed through the characters on screen. And also how her career was ruined because of him after this film.

Marnie!!!!!
I choose Bound.
mr ripley -- why i chose blue lagoon is that there's a new doc coming out about Brooke Shields.
I'm betting the larger Film Experience community would be most into Bound. And if it ends up that way - I'd highly recommend watching the "Death on Denial" episode of Chucky. I don't think you really need to know a single thing about Chucky (the tv show or series of films) to enjoy that, since it features all 3 major actors from Bound - plus Meg Tilly.
If Marnie isn't picked, hope you still watch it, Nathaniel. It's fascinating, and the way it looks is striking. I get why a lot of people don't love it, but there's a lot going on in it that's worth checking out.
Kind of feel like Bound will run away with this vote.
@Mr Ripley79: I heartily second Death and the Maiden. A great, forgotten film from a genius director. One of Polanski’s most rewatchable films. Love that film.
Whoa - BOUND had been leading every day but the moment i was logging in to close the poll, MARNIE had somehow overtaken it by just a 1% difference.
So we're discussing MARNIE next weekend!
