I'm telling you, if you want a completely unique and gratifying film experience, rent/buy Nowhere in Africa.

I'm watching an Edgar Wallace film in German with no subs. I like it better than dialogue in most American films.

Has anyone seen something called Open Water? I got it in the mail - it looks awful, but you never know.

Sorry, but I've never heard of it.

I was going to tell you all about a site I stumbled across the other day, it's called: Really Useful Sites for Really Busy People

It really does have some nifty links. Here's the address in case your interested.

It sounds like my worst nightmare. I don't think you could pay me to watch it.

DREAMCHILD is one of my favorite movies. Sadly, it's not widely known, even by film aficionados.

Sadly NETFIX doesn't have it.

OPEN WATER has 3 ¼ stars out of 5 on NETFLIX. “It's Jaws meets The Blair Witch Project when a vacationing couple on a scuba diving expedition accidentally gets left behind and must fend for themselves in shark-infested waters. Directed by Chris Kentis, the movie features unknown actors and was filmed on a shoestring budget, sans camera tricks or mechanical man-eaters. The circling sharks you see are … real!”

I thought it was based on a true story but don’t see any mention of that.

I had not known that Dennis Potter wrote "Dreamchild". Another reason fro me to try and track it down.

Tomovoz what is that on your avatar?

I'm on a roll.

"Open Water" sounds like the real story of two American tourists exploring the Great Barrier Reef here in Oz a few years ago.

That is it. We didn't see it.

Please let me know if you track down DREAMCHILD.

Do you have an unblurred photo you can email me?

Jane · « **Reply #194 on:** December 30, 2004, 06:39:00 PM »

Yahoo has DREAMCHILD for only $549.99 (DVD). I’m not that anxious to see it.
Amazon has used videos for much less, except I prefer a DVD.

I saw The Woodsman today, Dear Readers. A very well done film with a very fine performance by Mr. Kevin Bacon. Mr. Bacon plays a man recently paroled from prison after a twelve year incarceration for child molestation. We witness the internal conflict he suffers between his desire to be "normal" and fit back into society and his inappropriate sexual feelings towards young girls.

The film's point of view is non-judgmental. Although neither Mr. Bacon's character nor child molestation is romanticized in the film, Mr. Bacon's character is decidedly humanized. Well worth a look.

Of course, most real reality shows (which, of course, aren't really real either...how real can anything be when you know a camera may be on you), I find smarmy, offensive, and sleazy too...

Smarmy and sleazy? Darn, I must be watching the wrong reality shows!

MBarnum · « **Reply #200 on:** December 30, 2004, 06:49:13 PM »

And speaking of smarmy and sleazy, I just finished watching another made-in-Florida motion picture...the 1961 extravaganza BLAZE STARR GOES NUDIST!

I don't know what is becoming of me

Welcome Le Femme Jolie!

Where is RLP? Is he back?

Thanks for the Angie Dickinson story DRELMORE and for the CD that arrived today!

My brother got a new drum. Oh joy. He's playing it now and it is loud.

In other news, I'm hungry.

That's all.

According to IMBd, Open Water is "Based on the true story of two scuba divers accidentally stranded in shark infested waters after their tour boat has left." It's rated at 6.1 stars out of 10.

I also have to give a positive vote for Dreamchild. I even remember seeing it in Toronto at the Carleton Street Cineplex Cinema. It used to be one big theater next to old Toronto Gardens hockey arena. I saw the Poseidon Adventure when it first came out. I couldn't see it in Montreal because it was rated at the time 14 years and over (and I wasn't) but was able to see it in Toronto
