who's my favourite film character of 2018? it's gotta be

 

is Dale Dickey playing another no-nonsense tough old redneck woman because no authentic American indie drama could be complete without that.

You're back in DC. Give Kirstjen a call and she'll send an ICE swat team to the perps' homes.

 

For the Euros you'll have to get Haspel to deploy John Krasinski under the cover of filming his show

1967 (40th)	Estelle Parsons	Blanche Barrow	Bonnie and Clyde	[38]
	Carol Channing	Muzzy van Hossmere	Thoroughly Modern Millie
	Mildred Natwick	Ethel Banks	Barefoot in the Park
	Beah Richards	Mary Prentice	Guess Who's Coming to Dinner
	Katharine Ross	Elaine Robinson	The Graduate

[CoolioD1]

lmao the oscars used to give supporting awards to such weird performances. if Ben Hur came out (not the remake) today Stephen Boyd would get the supporting actor award that's the best peformance in that movie. but instead they gave it to hugh griffith for a twenty minute unfunny comic relief brownface routine from the same film.

never seen barefoot in the park but seen the other 4 surely it's gotta be Katharine Ross from that line-up.

I would totally be proud of being an American. I mean, have you guys looked at Best Buy? It is amazing, all those 4K UHDs... I am hard only to think about it.

 

 

 

I was in a Best Buy the other week. 

 

Most US Blu Rays turned out to be £5 more than they are in the UK. It's extortion.

We don't have to deal with ratings on the cover though.

It's a movie with an abuse montage that's played for laughs. How could anyone not love it?

[CoolioD1]

looking at all the movies that won acting oscars this year

 

i, tonya

three billboards

darkest hour

 

all such great classics literally no person has talked about since the oscars happened 4 months ago. this page on this thread is actually the first time someone has mentioned them since then.
