Which non-indian film u saw recently has made u post here???

Grouch,
Agreed on Mr.Roberts. He was great in Wilder films, it isn't that he only played screwball all the time. There's always drama at heart, and Wilder-Lemmon play tragicomedy/seriocomedy in their collaboration. DOWAR is a truly amazing performance. Another film where you see how the performance in B/W feels very iconic. He showed his range in later films. Of course, 70's and the new wave in general got all the classic actors to shed their iconic 'image' (and the transition to color obviously changes everything). Lemmon is superb in Save the Tiger, China Syndrome, and Missing. He aged superbly.

Absolutely, that is why he is an actor, not a comedian.

I will check out DOWAR soon. Hmm....it's Lemmon tonight, Mrs. Grouch. Will have hard time to defer on the promise to watch Cagney :P

That's a profound observation, and extremely insightful way to look at it.

Be warned though, DOWAR is little depressing and haunts you after it ends. You feel for both Lemmon & Lee Remick (Again, superb perf!). :cry2: Mancini's DOWAR soundtrack works the heart.

But then again, Cagney, like Jean Gabin, is an actor with penchant for anything borderline haunting!

Mr.Grouch, go easy on the missus ! :lol:
