I hadn’t thought much farther back, but that’s a great addition. Mary Poppins and Sound of Music were both huge hits, and those were ostensibly her first feature film roles. Crazy how so many pop up seemingly overnight and then just vanish a couple years later.

Yes! I feel like the rainy city soundscape of Seven would be pretty great as well.

I agree. As a kid I’d never heard of him until Lethal Weapon 4 and I thought he was the most badass dude I’d ever seen. Then I saw Black Mask, which was awesome. And then it just seemed like it was nothing but crap after crap 😢

I completely agree. There are hundreds of films that are “products of their time” and lord knows Hollywood is rife with sexualisation and pedos but it was wrong then and it is wrong now.

Julie Andrews came very close with Mary Poppins and Sound of Music. Although she might not fit the post because those were her 1st and 3rd major films roles, plus she was already established in Broadway

That’s a very interesting interpretation. I never thought of it like that so thank you for sharing. Just because my view on it was it was creepy doesn’t mean i am right about the intention of Besson.

Haha great. And then twenty years of nothingness to an Academy Award. What a story.

It sounds so weird but I fall asleep to Fincher’s Zodiac. The first 15 minutes of the movie are a nice soundscape to just drift away to.

Jet Li's Hollywood career. It's basically down to having a poor talent agent.

Awesome. I didn’t consider young actors. So happy for Ke Huy right now.

I’ve only just watched it mate and i searched the page and i couldn’t find a post on it but anyway that’s not to say there hasn’t been any. I just thought it was unsettling for me personally and wanted to see if it was a shared thought.

Idk man it’s not good, like obviously you can appreciate the art but its very weird.

Yeah completely, i’m not normally someone to criticise a movie for things beyond the general quality of the art but this was unignorable it just baffled me.

Brendan Fraser.
Encino Man followed by School Ties.
From non talkative caveman comedy to a private school drama flick.
Not too shabby.

Le Samourai is extremely relaxing to watch.
