Lake Placid (1999)
Sharp, witty dialog liven up this rocking comedy
My wife and I and my brother and his wife all vote for this picture as the best (intentionally) hilarious comedy we've seen this year. We (and entire audience with us) all seemed to get the jokes and we all seemed to laugh at the same volume. Hell, this is Tucson, not Stepford. It's all just the dialog and body and facial languages. The actors are terrific, the dialog is worthy of comparison with "LA Confidential." I thought Betty White was the funniest of the cast, but you'll have to see the film to find out why. I can't type that kind of language.
The Andersonville Trial (1970)
Top-notch, fierce courtroom drama, with Shatner at his best.
This pocket-sized movie has an epic sized heart. Was George C. Scott in the military? The actors move about the courtroom as if they know the place. When Shatner wants to get in somebody's face, he's a veritable bull in the corrida when it comes to handling witness and generals alike. And Richard Basehart - hey, don't get me started. I figured an oscar for sure here.
I plan to rent it again this weekend.
