I can't watch these videos from work
but if it’s the egg-eating scene from CHL, I’m glad I can’t… makes me sick everytime.

great movie
If a woman has to choose between catching a fly ball and saving an infant's life, she will choose to save the infant's life without even considering if there are men on base. ~Dave Barry
It's hard to believe Newman's no longer with us
except in salad dressing form.
That's why they call them business sox
and Fig Newmans
those things are TAAAAASTY

I still have Hud
At the top of my all time favorite movie list (granted it’s a short list). Newman and Patricia Neal performed defining roles in that one.

Really?
Man, that movie is dark and depressing as hell.
I don’t dispute that the acting is superb, but van damn, what a debbie downer of a flick.

Color of Money
Was my first exposure to him. Brilliant performance. I was a teenager at the time, so that has always stuck with me.

A movie that was made 19 years before I was born.
Yet it’s one of those Saturday afternoon-ruining movies. You’re flipping through the channels, planning on watching 20 minutes of TV before you get to work on your big list of things to do.
You flip past AMC, and there’s Cool Hand Luke (or, in another personal example, The Running Man, because damn it, I love that movie). And it’s then that you realize that you’re not going to get any of those things on your list done, because you are inherently obligated to watch the entire movie.
Seeking a new signature...
If It's Blues Brothers or CaddyShack

Bad 80s/90s hip hop is the usual fare for Friday videos…

it took me a while to like it
or really get it
but the music, george kennedy, the stupid stories – all really great.

I've always liked it
But I didn’t really “get it” until the second or third time I saw it either. I haven’t seen it in way too long. Might have to rent it now.

Leaving a comment here, boss
I got the Blu-Ray; very good transfer for those thinking of getting it.

oh man
my dad and I take a break every few hours to catch 10 minutes of this on YouTube…what an amazing work break.
what a great movie
"Hang-Dai, Wu...Hang-Fu$&ing-Dai"
Embarassing
But I only saw this movie from beginning to end a few months before he died.
Great movies of his that some might have not seen are The Verdict and Nobody’s Fool.
Remember Red, hope is a good thing. Maybe the best of things. And no good thing ever dies.
Nobody's Fool...
was playing at the AMC Sundance when I worked there as a teenager. I never saw it though. I’ve only seen Color of Money.
"I know you're a bit dense but no, it doesn't. Obviously lying isn't a problem for me."
The Verdict
Immaculate film that rarely gets a mention.

Sidney Lumet is a master.
‘The Verdict’, ‘Network’, ‘12 Angry Men’, and my personal fave, ‘Dog Day Afternoon’.
"I saw your act, just didn't make it for me. Just a lot of fluff."
Have you seen "Before the Devil Knows You're Dead?"
Over looked gem, in my opinion.
For some reason, it really flew under the radar, but I loved it. P.S. Hoffman going against type with fantastic abandon.

Haven't yet
Thanks for the reminder- I’m terrible about recent movies.
Also, I was remiss in omitting ‘The Hill’ among Lumet gems.
"I saw your act, just didn't make it for me. Just a lot of fluff."
Meh. Great movie, but a little light on the robots.
The 40 Trumps All!!!
You want the mustache on or off? ... ... ... Too bad.
Old moves from before I was born >>>>>> Kids in the Hall and crappy 80s music videos
By 2028, Mark Teixeira will be in the HOF.

Movie Greatness.
Fascinating to count the future well-known actors that were in supporting roles.

"WHAT, ME WORRY?"
one thing about this movie
when they’re dancing (i think someone’s playing a banjo and someone else is dancing) – it’s just really weird
Ceterum censeo Cat esse delendam - Cahill the Elder
one more thing
how come the prison was so willing to cook 50 eggs for one person?
Ceterum censeo Cat esse delendam - Cahill the Elder
Great movie
I’m partial to the car wash scene.
It also passes the Roger Ebert- ‘Stanton-Walsh’ rule. Any movie with either Harry Dean Stanton or M. Emmett Walsh is gonna be good.
"I saw your act, just didn't make it for me. Just a lot of fluff."
Have you seen Blood Simple?
Walsh + Coen bros in noir = delicious filmmaking…

Beat Weed here!
One of my favorite movies. Obscure to most except the illuminati. A unique Texas offering.

You know, Beat
We prolly have more in common than you think.

Possibly my favorite
Coen Bros. flick. And for sure my favorite Walsh role. Noir at it’s best, right up there w/ Double Indemnity.
"I saw your act, just didn't make it for me. Just a lot of fluff."
I gotta go Miller's Crossing
But that’s not noir.
And agreed on Double Indemnity. Anything Cain wrote made for good film noir material.
