EWB Film Club

[Benjamin]

Yeah, I was looking at the run times of his other films (Secrets of a Mariage and Fanny & Alexander) when I made my choice, then just got everything mixed up

[Monkey D. Lars]

Wild Stawberries just left in in awe. It's like a magical poem tourned into a masterpiece of a film.

[Benjamin]

Wild Strawberries is fucking beautiful. Loved it loved it loved it.

[Jimmy]

Nice, three of us managed to watch 2 films each this week. As per the rules, it's now back over to Lars! Hopefully we get Srar back this week

Also, seriously, so glad people loved Wild Strawberries. I think it's really up there for one my favourite films now. Just so beautiful and well done.

[Monkey D. Lars]

We are going with! Clint Eastwood! Not as a actor but as a Director!

[Benjamin]

Has Jimmy picked once yet? He should get next turn, right? Doesn't seem fair just because he's running it that he doesn't get to pick.

Still! Eastwood!

EDIT: Larz! I just realized you could have double-whammied us with Clint Eastwood as director AND actor at the same time! Boo that you didn't do it!

Yeah man, my first and only pick so far has been Bergman.

[Benjamin]

Oh, that wasn't Larz? You damn Dragons guys, all look the same

[Benjamin]

Gran Torino was pretty fucking fantastic. Clint Eastwood really knows how to be a bad ass old man. He really does that a lot, doesn't he?

Watching Mystic River next, although it doesn't really count since I've watched it a bunch of times.

[Monkey D. Lars]

Unforgiven (1992), epic choice. Clint Eastwood, Gene Hackman, Morgan Freeman? HELL YEAH!

[Benjamin]

Yeah, Unforgiven is probably his best one, right? I'd love to watch Outlaw Josie Wales, looks bad ass.

[Monkey D. Lars]

Who's next?

[Monkey D. Lars]

We need to perform CPR on the EWB Filmclub! Quick!

[Jimmy]

Haha, okay. My bad, was busy this week. Ben's up.

[Benjamin]

Ah, what the hell, it'll only be the three of us, right?

Billy Wilder it is! Unless I picked him already?

[Jimmy]

Nice.

Seven Year Itch, Fortune Cookie or Irma La Douce for me. Seen 10 of his films now.

[Benjamin]

I've watched both Seven Year Itch and Fortune Cookie, highly recommend both, but perhaps Seven Year Itch a bit more because I think it's funnier and for the fact that it has one of the most iconic shots in movie history. If you love the Matthau/Lemmon dynamic though then Fortune Cookie it is.

[Jimmy]

I liked The Odd Couple, but not as much as I thought I would. Obviously the other two have the attraction of Jack Lemon, but I feel like I should watch The Seven Year Itch for Marilyn and that shot.

[Monkey D. Lars]

I watched the Seven Year Itch yesterday! Loved it! Especially Monroe
