Generally the people i've known like that seemed to lack an imagination. Like the netflix review i read on Inglourious Basterds where the person criticized Tarantino's historical inaccuracies! hello!!!, Jew Vengeance fantasy, not meant to be taken as a history lesson!!!! oy!!!!<br /><br />you know, i've only seen ONE Dirk Bogarde film so far, ACK!!!<br />(Libel, which was very good i thought)Artman2112https://www.blogger.com/profile/03062864368596074661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6952132016236201534.post-19312454278651382802010-02-12T15:02:34.147-05:002010-02-12T15:02:34.147-05:00Looks like a wonderful film.

Not everything has to be an oh-so-realistic and intellectual commentary. They're really just screwing themselves over.Francyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17585122575455632885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6952132016236201534.post-43802275308618405232010-02-12T13:51:30.718-05:002010-02-12T13:51:30.718-05:00Great post!

Even for random little films like Gidget Goes Hawaiian (AHAHA!). I just do. I feel the entire story. And I get caught up in the characters. I LOVE the protagonists and HATE the antagonists. It's pretty hysterical actually.<br /><br />What an idiot? Seriously. Haha, maybe he wrote a book about Dirk because nobody else had so he wouldn't feel like he had any competition? ;-D<br /><br />AWWWW, he smiles...because SERIOUSLY, like you said Yesterday...he doesn't smile ENOUGH in his films...SHEESH! <br /><br />Excellent review.Milliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08562702535170134885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6952132016236201534.post-88155977108576848652010-02-12T13:36:47.255-05:002010-02-12T13:36:47.255-05:00Sometimes it's necessary just to sit back and ...Sometimes it's necessary just to sit back and enjoy the ride. My beau tends to look for editing cuts and flaws. I overlook all of that stuff and let the story carry me away. It's much more enjoyable.<br /><br />This movie sounds great! That poster is gorgeous.Raquel Stecherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02687110907002450794noreply@blogger.com
