i really want to see Brokeback Mountain.Gay cowboys? Nothing sacred anymore:)
Hey! A perfect record! I’ve seen none of these. Okay, pick the ONE film here that I absolutely MUST see.
I know that John Wayne wouldn’t have said… he wouldn’t have “saddle up pilgrim.”
I know. I wonder what John Wayne would have to say about this movie.
Must sees are: Good Night, and Good Luck; Brokeback Mountain, Crash; Syriana; Capote
I forgot Walk the Line (which I am seeing this weekend), Match Point, and The Squid and the Whale.
I think John Wayne would be kind of upset by this movie. There are no “damn Comanche” in it to make it a real cowboy flick.
