September 22, 200916 yr Let's give some love to some of those lesser known films. I'll start: In Bruges- starring Colin Farrel, Brendon Gleeson, and Ralph Fiennes- comedy/drama about two hitmen taking a vacation in Bruges, Belgium. Very profane language but very, very funny, but can switch from humorous to serious in a matter of seconds. Won some foreign film award. Just a great, great movie. Miller's Crossing- an early Coen movie starring a typical Coen cast including Turturro and Buscemi. As artsy as most of their films but with a coherent plot as well. Haven't watched it in a few years, but if I recall correctly, it is about a guy rising up through the ranks in the mafia.
September 22, 200916 yr Folks! starring Tom Selleck and Don Ameche. A comedy about a successful commodities executive whose life is disrupted by his aging parents.
September 22, 200916 yr Over The Top starring Sylvester Stallone! How can you say Over the Top is relatively unknown? Everybody has seen this movie. The turning of the hat around is a classic moment in cinema history.:lol:
September 22, 200916 yr Newsies - A musical, by Disney, relating to the newsboy strike in the late 19th century.....good flick.

September 22, 200916 yr "The Stoned Age" is a classic -- sort of like "Dazed and Confused," but on a much smaller budget. Chock full of great lines. As far as star power goes, it features Chyna Kantner (daughter of Grace Slick and Paul Kantner), as well as small roles for Taylor Negron (better known as "that gay guy"), Jake Busey and Frankie Avalon. "She looks like that chick off the Virgin Killers album!" "The Schnaapster!"
September 22, 200916 yr Clay Pigeons - Early Vince Vaughn unlike you've seen him lately. Joaquin Phoenix also very good in the movie.

September 22, 200916 yr I love that movie, haven't seen it in years. I actually have a VHS copy of it somewhere. It was such a low-budget operation that the tape plays on super-hi speed, meaning less tape was used to record it initially, as opposed to the standard play most VHS movies are recorded on for distribution.
