Movies you can watch over and over

Also it’s a good shout out to the continued saga of whether Tidwell is gay or not. The film got slammed because the monster was too phallic shaped (Barker said so himself).

Same here man, Basinger was at her best emotionally, like she was struggling from this guy playing games she wanted to marry him and hae a family and he led her on. I still never understood the scene with the old man artist that was the pivotal scene that had her think about her future and what she wanted with John. Do you know why that made her decide to leave John? when she met the old man artist?

I think at the end John really loved her but he was so into playing games with her and it was too late he wanted to control her and got off on having power, but at the same time he wanted her and did love her.

I watched it again when it was on netflix a while back and when I was still majoring in Theater and film and people who dont understand acting wont think she was amazing in it but for those who really love studying actors her emotional ebbs and flows in it so subtle she is almost innocent and pure and than she goes to this pain and sadness. Its not fake too its almost as if she really fell for Rourke like he played with her and told her I really love you in the trailer before shoots, and then later ignore her on set.

I know Brandon and the director of last tango did the same to that poor girl, she was only what 19 years old and brando was 49? but they really emotionally strung her along.

When women are still pure like that it fucks with them when you play with their emotions, and I think that 9 and half weeks really was the film that did that for Basinger.

But man she was so clean, one of my child hood crushes I remember my folks rented it and it was considered like a banned movie but for today that shit is PG 13 lol

You know what, I have that movie on the hard drive plugged into my TV right now, after I write this I'm gonna go back and watch that scene again, sede what I come up with.

Looking back now I used to think he reminds her of her own father or the father she wishes she had, and perhaps feels embarressed knowing what she has been doing when there is a man of such purity and heart sitting in front of her.
Or she realises this is the type of man she wants to be with as she grows old, genuine, loving, talented, sharing, rather than being dominated and fucked with by John.
He also says that he only 'remembers when to eat and when to sleep', perhaps just reminding her of the fundamentals of living that she has been missing out on because the choice is not hers any more.

Maybe the surroundings are enough to break the spell; being surrounded by all the colors and the art, and all that influences the old man pulls her from her obsession and realises she does not want to be surrounded by Manhattan greys and black pleat skirts while living out her life in a penthouse dungeon in NY.

I'm gonna watch it shortly and come back!

Last Tango is not a movie I'll ever weatch again I don't think, that is possibly the closest we'll get to seeing a real rape on celluloid in the name of art! Go Marlon! Go Bernardo!

Exorcist I almost chose, it's my 2nd or 3rd favorite movie, and though I watch it yearly it's almost too good to be included as a go to movie. Every time I watch it it's an event you know? Same with Goodfellas

yeah she was just getting big, with dirty dancing as her break out role there were so many that people dont even know of, only us kids from that time remember them, like Jami Gertz and Jennifer Beales to popular female actresses who never become A lister super stars and fell off doing smaller shows and roles.

Another one of the top dog sex symbols of that era was Patrick Swayze, he was HUGE, but also he felll off bad, He had the charisma, the looks, everything.

His peak was GHOST that I think was his last great film or big film, that was the time when his star was the its brightest.

I heard he fell off because he had an attitude or diva personality? but it shocked me how he just disappeared, my mom used to like him a lot when I was a kid and said whatever happened to Swayze?

You also had Michael J Fox another huge star at the time who fell off.

I honestly love it! My top 3 movie.

Got slated in its reviews when it was released tho and called porn due to the tonne of nudity.

But it's Kubrick. You know it's good.

After you watch it, google about the fan theories and hidden meanings. There's tonnes of them on the net.

It's a great flick and well worth watching. I thought Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman were really good in it too.

yeah man last tango was hard to watch that experience traumatized that poor 19 year old, it was wrong what they did they basically dry humped her and played with her emotions she was still young and innocent. She wasn't like one of these girls you see like balla thorne or miley cyrus who are enticed and easily seduced by evil things.

9 and half weeks has so many angles to it. I think she didnt go back because she realized he was playing a game with her, remember he started counting he pushed his luck and it was too late he opened up at the last minute but she kept looking back, some people said she was also playing a game because she kept expecting him to be the one to chase her.

so they expected each other to bow or submit to each others ideal she wanted John to be the loving husband and father, and he wanted her to be his play thing to enjoy sexually and keep her away from his friends and family, remember she was looking at his pictures and saw his ex girlfriend and he called her on the phone from the phonebooth he planted that photo to make her jealous and when he came back he got mad at her and than they have sex.

She wanted more and was curious and he wanted fun and flings. But at the end he came off sincere he was ashamed o fhis family its really complex man.

I bet you if it were real life she got married to another man she would probably think about him from time to time, girls never forget that type of affair. She probably doesnt look at pics of him if it were a real life situation because she would get curious and get that butter fly feeling thinking about him.
