Re: SPOILERS!
Clue 2: The movie is not a musical, but it has many songs and a lot of singing. At least one of the songs won an oscar, but this is not the movie it won the oscar for.

Re: SPOILERS!
The Wikipedia page for the song lists a whole host of movies. But the only movies from the sixties and seventies it lists are The Intelligence Men and The Wind and the Lion and this doesn't sound like either film.

Re: Least and Most Favorite Movie of the week
Last week I saw six movies. Let's start with the two best. The Delinquents is an interesting Argentinian movie which takes the idea of the heist movie and expands it to three hours. The basic idea is that a man steals from the bank, agrees to be caught, with the idea that once he serves his relative...

Re: Movie Awards for 2023
A thought occurred to me. If The Red Balloon can win best original screenplay despite not being a feature film, what other Academy Awards can short films win, aside from short subject?

Well it's not a Hitchcock film, since California (where Marion Crane goes) and Virginia (where Marnie Edgar goes) aren't landlocked.

Discuss your crazy ideas about individual movies here!
Yes, put your crazy or completely unsupported theories here! I'll start off. Everyone knows that as Blade Runner proceeds Harrison Ford has a Japanese colleague played by Edward James Olmos who has the habit of making tiny little origami figures. And in the penultimate scene of the original cut Ford...

Re: Least and Most Favorite Movie of the week
