HITCH "Quote" For
November
Hitch:
Basic Principles - no woman wakes up
saying "God, I hope I don't get swept off
my feet today!" Now, she might say "This
is a really bad time for me," or something
like "I just need some space," or my
personal favorite "I'm really into my
career right now." You believe that?
Neither does she. You know why? 'Cause
she's lying to you, that's why. You
understand me? Lying! It's not a bad time
for her. She doesn't need any space. And
she may be into her career, but what she's
really saying is "Uh, get away from me
now," or possibly "Try harder, stupid,"
but which one is it?

What
was the Worst Movie you got dragged
to the theatre to watch??? - the
Turkey awards!!!!
|
Which
Film Most Surprised you when you
were expecting a lemon??? ....the
Keeper Award!!!
|
|
It
was a dead heat for me between
Aramadas
-They portrayed him as a moron. and
Passage to India - but why would
you want to (go to India.)
Grant=Stephens
comments below dissagree with my assesment
of Amadeus.
(1FanTale 2U) Let me say I like the Music
of that composer, But personally didn't
like the film at all.
|
At
Alans we watched the Tyler Perry movie
Madea's Family Reunion :)
definately worth giving it a spin. and
Second Hand Lions- bad cover but a
great film:-GB
|
|
....Regarding
the movie, Aramadas (myBad), which
I presume you mean Amadeus, is
there wisdom in calling Wolfgang
Amadeus Mozart a moron? Many of
his 600 compositions are widely
acknowledged as pinnacles of symphonic,
concertente, chamber, piano, operatic and
choral music. He is generally
regarded as the greatest musical genius
the world has ever seen; his understanding
of music theory, the complexities of
harmonics and his mastery of musical
expression as an art form is second to
none. If he was a moron, then the rest us
are totally brain dead. You won't get
people coming back to read your website by
saying things like
that. (Please
bear in mind I saw this film once, at the
Mecca, in the 80s and simply didn't care
for IT.)
.....I'm
very surprised that you, a musician and
lover of music, found Amadeus, a film
about a music genius, not to your liking.
Apart from the fact that it left much
to be desired in terms of
biographical accuracy, I found it totally
compelling. It portrayed with pinpoint
accuracy the culture of the classical
music period in Europe at all levels, even
down to the playing of Mozart's
compositions on authentic period
instruments. In an early scene, the
pounding of the horses hoofs galloping
through the dark streets of Vienna to the
opening bars of the 1st movement of
Mozart's 25th symphony was one of the
finest marriages of music and visuals I
have ever seen in a film. The fine line
between genius and madness has never been
so cleverly defined and portrayed on film
as here. And as for Mozart being a moron
... of all the people who have ever lived,
he would have to be among the least
deserving of the title 'moron'. You really
dropped a clanger with that one!
......As
for A Passage To India, it certainly
wasn't the best transcription of a piece
of classic literature to the big screen,
and would definitely be a low point in the
directing career of Sir David Lean. By his
standards it was a below par film, but I
am sure that was because of the
impossibility of retaining the integrity
of the novel while keeping it all visually
interesting, which is what a film must do.
Given the importance of India as a major
source of revenue to Britain and British
merchants during the era in which the film
was set, I feel the answer to your
question as to why one would want to go to
India is rather obvious.
(what
did you see at the Movies you
Hated)
......I
have recommended a number of people to
your website to try and increase traffic
to it, but more than one found your
comments such as those about Mozart and
India to be quite foolish. You may well
believe that Mozart was portrayed as a
moron in the film, and you have every
right to say that, but by saying that
Mozart himself was a moron, it
convinced two of the people who I
recommended your website that you in fact
are the moron. That to me was very sad
because I know you're not. Stephen
Yarrow.
(Your Team Profile- reads just right.)
