Control Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 The fact that John Hurt narrates DOGVILLE is probably the sole reason I'll end up watching it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roman Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Don't forget that wonderfully cute animated movie for the whole family, Watership Down, which my father rented from the library for five-year-old me because he thought it was a Disney movie about cute, fluffy bunnies. THANKS, DAD! It wasn't the English version, so I was deprived of John Hurt's voice, but I'll be fucked if I'll see that movie again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better than any of that Disney bollocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 I've never watched The Elephant Man, and after seeing the clip that J.T. posted I won't be able to. I'm comfortable with a level of deep, deep depression and sadness in films but that takes the cake. That should be an Empathy Litmus Test. If you watch it and don't cry, you should be shot in the head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roman Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 If you're not empathetic, empathetic people should shoot you? Empathetic people need to be more empathetic. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just man up and watch it and accept the fact that you will be a blubbering mess when the end credits roll. I went to see it with my mom when I was a kid and we had to go out for ice cream to cheer ourselves up. It is THAT moving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mom watches TCM all the time and really like Robert as host. I know they have the youngerish guy there who's good, but he's not Robert. Didn't realize he was that old, to me he seemed to be at most in his early 70s. RIP, Robert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
