Remember BULL DURHAM?
❝I still remember how happy I was when I saw it the first time and I had to restrain myself to immediately watch it again, it was so perfect to me. ❞

❝Only a handful of sports movies I would watch on a constant loop because they are just so satisfying: Slap Shot, Bull Durham, and the original Bad News Bear❞

This is the entry to a kino here in Norway. My friends didn't let me go in *sniffle* Be back to NYC and thus movies tonight. What did I miss these past ten days? Fill me in! What have you been seeing?
Wednesday, May 29, 2013 at 5:48PM Behold my "best shot" from Hud (1963)
NOT REALLY. See, that is my favorite shot in the 1963 classic and my favorite shot does take place in the black of night but my screencap trickery is mysteriously failing me today and all I'm getting is this blankness when Paul Newman's beauty should be readily visible to the eye. So my post will be up in the morning. If you're still wanting to watch this masterful film, please consider your own late entry in the black of night tonight or any time tomorrow. Or go visit these Best Shot participants to read their takes on the movies: We Recycle Movies , The Film's the Thing, Film Actually, The Entertainment Junkie, and Antagony... It's one of the great 60s films and mysteriously little talked about today.
In the meantime, WHAT'S ON YOUR CINEMATIC MIND? Seen anything good lately?
Tuesday, May 14, 2013 at 2:00PM Mine is all over the place today. Can't focus on any one movie... which might mean a movie marathon is in store. When's the last time you had one?
Sunday, May 12, 2013 at 1:34PM Did you call your mother yet? I was just talking to mine. Before we hung up, apropos of nothing, she says...
I was watching Turner Classic Movies this week. Sometimes I think of you when I watch."
Which... well, from my mother that's like a huge bouquet of flowers and hugs since she isn't super verbally affectionate. When pressed about which movie(s) she couldn't remember. "You know... that actress"
Was it... Barbara Stanwyck? I asked, trying to help with the first name that popped into my mind. "No. But I've seen lots of her movies. I didn't used to like her but now I do."
Her current obsession is The Pirates of Penzance (1983) with 'that great new actor Kevin Kline' (new, mom?). She has apparently been buying up his filmography on VHS at garage sales and also likes French Kiss (1995) "except for the awful language!" Last time I visited she wanted to see Snow White and the Huntsman and then closed her eyes for half the movie.
What peculiar movie tastes does your mom have? What's the last movie you took her to?

Holy Motors (2012)
It's confession time. Name the last three movies you watched. No editing. GO...
