The Long Goodbye: Superb, she loved it. I am loving it more!
The French Connection: What can I say? She was thrilled and got disturbed towards the climax. You know why.
The French Connection II: Slower for her, but she hung on. I loved it even more (wrote a bit in the other section).
Godfather: She teared many times...err...during the "look how they massacred my boy", tears welled in my eyes too :oops:
Godfather II: Both story intrigued her. Awesome filmaking, enatta solla!
Mean Streets: Don't watch it alone. Watch it with someone and see the laugh coming. Didn't know it was that funny when I first saw it. We enjoyed it.
Still to go:
Taxi Driver
3 Days Of The Condor
Invasion of The Body Snatcher
One Flew Over...
All The President's Men
A Clockwork Orange
The Sting.
Mattapadi, she's a regular when it comes to Eastwood and Woody Allen and she saw all of their seventies save one of Woody's TV film that I haven't watched myself.
This weekend, and this will be ultimate ride and maybe the most difficult film she had ever seen:
Apocalypse Now!
