(2002 Director: Martin Scorsese) Here is a movie (that feels a bit like theatre to me...my old fiance was an acting major) I can't quite finish watching this movie & now that I am/almost have..it is resonating with me....Some of the most impressive performances in a film I have watched in a long time...Ahhh yes...Scorsese?

Woke up Saturday morning & watched this movie finally on recommendations Liam Niessen...Leonardo DiCaprio...opens with an awesome group gangraising for a fight...what fight? Was it over Irish not been given jobs here in the "New Land"??

Despite some remarkable acting, I felt the editing could have been less choppy. I am not referring to the flashback sequences...where DiCapprio's character remembers some of these "big" gang leaders from when he was just a small 5 yr old boy (orphaned & arriving from Ireland)....More an attempt at an almost artistic statement surrounding conscription (unless you could pay $300 to AVOID the draft), immigration, monopolization/gang ....Extreme violence, raw in many, many parts. COULD NOT watch this film straight through... Bill the Butcher's from-the-gut speech to his "apprentice" Amsterdam (DiCapprio), was the closest thing to tender in this movie & it stays with me.....that is--except for the love that evolves between Diaz & DiCapprio's characters...wheeewwwww [true compassion of spirit & mutual empathy]

Equally, however, I was moved by Cameron Diaz's performance & the story of her character & her "scar"(much worse than my own) but a significantly deeper scarring of her psyche...life as a street urchin from age 12 (orphaned) & taken in by the seemingly compassionless Bill the Butcher (crime boss)......so many faces his character shows...Bill's lasting admiration for "Amsterdam's" dash aka guts....Bill even uses a bible quotation, "Lukewarm, neither hot nor cold, I will spew you out..."

(2006 Director: Christopher Nolan!) Hugh Jackman, Scarlett Johansen, Chrisian Bale, Michael Caine & DAVID BOWIE!! WHAT A CAST!! Watched this movie today (New Year's) in parts. It seemed kind of long but enjoyed it. I thought it was rather oriiginal. I liked the historical aspect & the setting oin likely what the late 1800"s (there was electriicity invented obviously)

Michael Caine is a fascinating actor...Christian Bale also. Parts are a bit raw (violence) not graphic sexuality (for once!!) Based on the book by Christian Priest.

[a Flixster friend (JC') review of Dune:] the movie dune the original version of the movie didnt do much justice to the book since it was cut an hour short but there is a special edition of the movie dune wich has the 1984 original theatrical version and the 3 hours and 20 minute directors cut check out the directors cuit it has scenes that was cut from the 1984 version and makes the film even better. overall its a beautoiful film to look at with spectaculkar special effects especially the seqence of the worm and to see aeveral big starsstar in this film way befroe they became famous like virgina madesen, dean stockwell, patrick stewart aka captain jean luc picard on star trek, brent spiner data from star trek, jurgen pronchow the famous german actor from das boot, sting, richard jordan and sean young before blade runner sucxcess and also contains a wondeful score from tangerine. you must watch it just to expereince it
