Some Excellent Suggestions For An Awesome Film To View Tonight

By Alberta Pierce

Various websites also offer software that allows you to transfer the movie to a disc so that you can view it on your television set. Watching motion pictures while cuddled up on the sofa in front of your Television is much more appealing than sitting in front of a computer monitor. Make sure that the website provides that if it is important to you. Below are some of the greatest films of all time. Choose a good motion picture to watch this evening.

The Night of the Iguana - Trudging storyline based on Tennessee Williams play. Recovered alcoholic clergyman Burton, a bus-journey guide in Mexico, becomes involved with Kerr, Gardner, and Lyon. Dorothy Jeakins won an Oscar for her costumes. Cast includes Richard Burton, Deborah Kerr, Ava Gardner, Sue Lyon, Skip Ward, Grayson Chamber, and Cyril Delevanti. (118 minutes, 1964)

Ivan the Terrible - Continuation of the legend of King Ivan IV, in which he takes on the boyars in a battle for power. Remarkable dvd is just a hint underneath its predecessor, Banned by Stalin due to dubious illustration of Ivan's secret patrol, and not released till 1958. Cast includes Nikolai Cherkassov; Serafima Birman, Mikhail Nazvanov, Pavel Kadochnikov, and Andrei Abrikosov. (88 minutes, 1946)

The Ploughman's Lunch - Complex, cynical denunciation of British behaviors, ethics and affairs of state, focusing on the maneuvers of entirely egocentric journalist (Pryce) and others throughout the Falklands battle. The film is somewhat perceptive, within the restraints of its outlook. Cast includes Jonathan Pryce, Tim Curry, Rosemary Harris, Blunt Finlay, and Charlie Dore. (100 minutes, 1983)

Sugar Town - Pleasurable variety of LA life characterizing a handful of characters whose lives come together - a musician would-be who'll do anything to get ahead, an uptight lone woman who allures the wrong men like a magnet, and a band made up of cleaned-up '80s rock megastars, to name a few. Made on a shoestring, although intelligent and well recognized; excellent cast contains a number of real life musicians. Cast includes Ally Sheedy, Rosanna Arquette, John Taylor, Jade Gordon, Michael Des Barres, Lucinda Jenney, and Martin Kemp. (92 minutes, 1999)

On Guard - A faithful swordsman saves a child princess from the wicked grasp of her mean foe. The child's father was also the swordsman's guru. A delightfully old-styled popcorn movie that is full of action and set in the France of Louis XIV. Cast includes Daniel Auteuil, Fabrice Luchini, Vincent Perez, Marie Gillain, Yann Collette, Didier Pang, and Philippe Noiret. (128 minutes, 1997)

Faces - Very personal drama in regards to plentiful infidelities is one of the few Cassel films to become a big hit. Here's a powerful motion picture with grand action, particularly by Carlin and Cassel. Cast includes John Marley, Gena Rowlands, Lynn Carlin, Seymour Cassel, Fred Draper, and Val Avery. (130 minutes, 1968)

The Gorgeous Hussy - Stars fill the cast list in this fictionalized historical drama of Peggy O'Neal, President Andrew Jackson's surreptitious lover. The cast is magnificently costumed in well assigned settings. The film is based on the story by Samuel Hopkins Joyce. Cast includes Joan Crawford, Robert Taylor, Lionel Barrymore, Franchot Tone, Melvyn Douglas, James Stewart, Alison Skipworth, Beulah Bondi, and Gene Lockhart. (102 minutes, 1936) - 29955
