You want a woman, you rape her, and she likes it, only becoming angry when you “don’t go back for more.”

Other stuff: The Greatest (1977), Phenomenon (1995) & The Apostle (1997) Given the arse-licking title and its gag-inducing theme song, you’d expect The Greatest to be nothing more than ninety-minutes of Muhammad Ali cuddling himself. And for the most part (especially during his anti-Vietnam stance) it does its best to depict him as The Most…

War: M*A*S*H (1970) & The Eagle Has Landed (1976) I guess I’m no different to you in that there are some movies I don’t get. M*A*S*H is the perfect example, a flick that was a big box-office hit, garnered five Oscar nods and spawned a long-running TV show. It centers on the frat boy hijinks…

Cops: The Rain People (1969), Badge 373 (1973), True Confessions (1981), Colors (1988) & Falling Down (1993) Duvall has played a lot of law enforcement officers, kicking things off with a homophobic head-buster in The Detective before popping up as an obnoxious, daughter-abusing motorcycle cop in the vaguely feminist Rain People. He’s introduced with half…

Rated: I for Immature The Coen brothers (Ethan and Joel) are known for their quirky, darkly comedic movies. Perhaps more than that, they are known for making movies as a pair. While they don’t make blockbuster type films, you have probably seen at least one of their films and remember something specific about that film.…

The Westerns: True Grit (1969), Lawman (1971), The Great Northfield, Minnesota Raid (1972), Joe Kidd (1972) & Geronimo: An American Legend (1995) I don’t know too much about John Wayne, except he always seemed to play a similar character: tough, gruff and self-reliant. A man’s man. Didn’t dress in pink much, you know? In the…

Dramas: The Chase (1966), Network (1976), The Betsy (1978), The Great Santini (1979), Tender Mercies (1983), The Natural (1984), Rambling Rose (1991), The Paper (1994) & The Scarlet Letter (1995) The Chase united Duvall with Brando for the first time, but although it’s the lesser known of their collaborations this one is worth hunting down.…

Action: Bullitt (1968), The Killer Elite (1975) & Breakout (1975) Despite being the best part of sixty years old and having no action in its first twenty minutes, Bullitt still feels fresh and unusual. It might be famed for its superb, eleven-minute car chase, but I take as much pleasure in its taut, understated feel.…
