Damn good movie, it's been on my radar. I only watch old movies, the new ones have just gone to shit. Keep the old movie suggestions coming.
Another pretty good movie that I watched recently was "The Earthling ", not a great deal of action but it has a good plot. |
|
Excellent suggestion, OP. I've loved that one since the first time I saw it as a smaller, younger version of me. Unlike most people, I was never a child.

The scene where they see each other in the binoculars and grin just gets me every time.
Marvin smiles like the Cheshire Cat. |

Charles Bronson. the Embodiment of the Real American in the 70s dude.
He signed my CCW permit while he was Sec. Of Florida Department of Agriculture. |

Marvin looked like he had some fun making this movie. Or he just got all of the great lines. Edit: for more of a summertime movie, movie night here will be "To Live and Die in LA." She likes Dafoe and Peterson, and hopefully isn't holding against me how slow Manhunter was. |

A great movie that is NEVER on TV or TCM :(
I have to find a DVD. |

Never heard of it. But I like Charles Bronson. So I'll check it out

View Quote What does this tell us about Rotten Tomatoes as a reliable movie critic? Though the critic <20%, audience >70% is usually a clue for an entertaining two hours... |

View Quote I agree with that usually being a good indicator. The wider the gap, the better. The inverse of that (high critic score & low audience score) usually indicates a DEI/Woke movie/series that should probably be ignored. |

On the topic of movies, I just now discovered there is an earlier version of "Day of The Jackyl" (1973). It looks interesting.

Where did you find this? Never seen it on streaming. As another poster said hard times is good too.

Great Movie
Marvin and Bronson together in a movie is a must watch. Angie Dickinson performs the same speech on Marvin as she did to John Wayne in Rio Bravo. |

Or, at least I used to. Plinkett's lengthy shredding of the Phantom Menace will make you reexamine how you view visual media. Ebert was right: 8 1/2, La Dolce Vita, Nights of Cabiria, are absolutely fucking genius movies. Not simply because of how they're satirized. Rashomon if you've never seen it: Will absolutely change how you view the world. I don't really remember my undergrad historiography class, other than an appreciation for Tacitus (I really need to compare his writing to Xenophon---guess I need a good translation), except that, one night, we got dragged to watch Rashomon. I'm not kidding that this was probably the most important college class I ever had. So the critics are usually right! Or, at least they used to be. I don't have the time to find a "The Woman in the Dunes"; they do. But it doesn't work that way anymore, does it? |

View Quote I teach film and my goal is to not only teach to the standards, but also aim to open a student's viewpoint by exposing them to films that they would typically not screen (like Rashomon). That film is so applicable in times like these where everyone is living "their truth." What's even better is when they use films like you mentioned as influences to their own creative process. Everything is a remix, but it's cool to see the originators make cinematic discoveries that question your perspective and ways of doing things. |

Death Hunt was not available on my normal streaming services - will have to hunt it up latter. Watched The Earthing - good. Will start Day of the Jackal next.

I just watched Death Hunt tonight on a Roku device using a streaming app called Free Movies+. It does have commercials.
I don’t recall having seen the movie before and enjoyed it. |
