bods1000 Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 His last movie was "The Hunter" where he played the part of a bounty hunter. SM fans...don't forget "Le Mans". 16track...do you prefer Part1 or Part 2? Oh yeah I remember that scene alright! Sleeping with the fishes! Grabe all-star cast ng Godfather no? Pacino, Cazale, Duval, Talia Shire, James Caan, Brando! I never liked Part 3 where Sofia Coppola, Andy Garcia and George Hamilton somehow didn't fit in. I recommend you buy the original boxed set pare, it's got a lot of great extras in it. My wife bought it for me a few Christmases ago. I especially love the commentaries section where Copolla narrates anecdotes, trivia and interesting facts for every scene played. And you won't believe how many great deleted scenes the trilogy has. As for the FBI guy in Dog Day, would that be Art Carney? The China Syndrome! Trivia ulit hehehe...that's the only film that didn't have a single note of a musical soundtrack. Not even when they rolled out the credits. This isn't exactly a 70's movie, but it has Pacino in it, and the setting was in the 70's....Carlito's Way? The director Brian de Palma played out a no dialogue 16-minute chase through Grand Central station...galing!<{POST_SNAPBACK}> pare how can you forget Robert DeNiro from Godfather 2 I believe he won a Best Supporting Oscar for playing the young Vito Corleone hehehe...Also pare Diane Keaton, who was Pacino's long-suffering wife in the films....Brian de Palma was a great director. Carrie, Body Heat and The Shining were unforgettable... Some more mafioso trivia... In Godfather Part 2, one of Hyman Roth's (Lee Strasberg) henchmen was a guy name Johnny Ola. He was the reason why Mike (Pacino) found out his brother Fredo (Cazale) was the behind an attempt on his life. Anyway, Johnny Ola was played by an actor named Dominic Chianese, and any fan of the wiseguys-genre would recognize him as Corrado 'Junior' Soprano from HBO's famous mafia-family series "The Sopranos". Hey...a lot of guys are changing their avatars....Bods, who's that cool looking guy? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That's Van Morrison, pare - been listening to him a lot lately hehehe....wala langAnd her name was G...L...O....R...I....A.....G-L-O-R-I-A....Gloria.... pero saludo pa rin ako kay Ole Blue Eyes hehehe Quote Link to comment

The theme song of the movie was sung by Johnny Mathis and a female partner whose name I can't recall. In the story, the two lovers met every year but the movie featured only five-year intervals.

16track Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 (edited) Sliderule: I better get a copy of the box set then before its gone. Part 3 was kind of stretching it a bit for my taste although the death of Michael Corleone was done very well. Many portions of Part 2 were written in the book and Coppola was more or less faithful to the Mario Puzo narrative. That in a way kind of makes me love both Parts 1 and 2. Both parts had memorable moments. I like the scene near the ending when Brando was telling Michael how he never wanted the mob life for his youngest son but that Santino would have made a bad Don. The end of the movie-- was the same as the book. Kaye, the wife stood in shock as she glanced at the open doorway where all the heads of all the mob families kneeled down to kiss Michael's ring turn by turn. The book narrates that Kaye was fearfully reminded of the figure of a Roman emperor where soldiers and senators professed their loyalty to their leader. Then the door slowly closes. More lines from the Godfather: Michael : My father helped Johnny Fontaine out of his contract with a bandleader once who refused to to let Johnny go.Kaye : How did he manage that?Michael : Luca Brassi paid the bandleader a visit - held a shotgun to his head and and told him that either his brains or his signature will be on the release contract.Michale : Kaye, my father's way of doing things are over. Even he knows that. In 5 years time, the Corleone Family will be totally legit. Don Vito : [in the car after meeting with the rest of the Dons and where Barzini negotiated peace between the Corleones and the Tataglias] "Tataglia's a pimp. He could not have outsmarted Santino. I never realized until tonight that it was Barzini all along!" Michael : Comforting his sister: Do you think I could k*ll the father (his wife's husband) of my god child? [The next scene had Carlo, the husband, being strangled to death by Michael's thugs inside the car] Clemenza : The gun will be planted at the back of that old fashioned toilet.Santino : Make sure that it's there. I don't want my brother to walk out of there with just his dick in his hands. [As they planned Michael's murder of Virgil Solozzo and the Police Chief.

16track Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Storm: One On One was pretty good. Robbie Benson's big break which also featured the nice soundtrack. The theme - "Love Conquers All"--was done by true 70's act Seals and Croft. Hard to believe that Annette O Toole ( did I get that right? ) who played Robbie Benson's love interest in that movie now plays Superman's mom, Martha Kent in Smallville. Correct me if I am wrong... but wasn't John Travolta in the film Carrie? He was just starting out then. Still not sure but I do believe he played the baddie boyfriend of one of the mean girls in school -- the one that dies in the burning car. Quote Link to comment
flyingdutchman Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Another great line from The Godfather : "Keep your friends close, but keep your enemies closer." And not really a line, but that scene where the director discovershis prize horse's head on his bed : AAAAHHHHH!!!!! AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!! ( ad infinitum ) Quote Link to comment
walangiba Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Ellen Burnstyn of "The Exorcist" fame. The theme song of the movie was sung by Johnny Mathis and a female partner whose name I can't recall. In the story, the two lovers met every year but the movie featured only five-year intervals.<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Johnny Mathis sang this movie's theme song "The Last Time I Felt Like This" with Jane Olivor. He also had other hits like "Too Much, Too Little, Too Late", a duet with Deniece Williams. (Hinanap ko pa dito yung LP ko, "The Best of Johnny Mathis 1975-1980", ayan, naputol tuloy yung kuko ko! ) Johnny Mathis is.... timeless! Quote Link to comment
