If you like Ennio Morricone, watch Italian films like "Cinema Paradiso" or "Malena" - they have the most beautiful composition by Ennio.

The scene with baseball is based on a real event where Capone killed a rival with baseball bat. Another De Niro films worth watching is Raging Bull.

No, in the initial Russian assault a few were speaking Russian. You just had to pay attention. Even the Cuban commander spoke some Russian.

If you want to know where Dr. Evil’s look came from, you can thank Donald Pleasance and this film for that.

Loved all the lair envy you had watching this movie. 😂Very fun reaction. 😊

Great detail at 19:44 that I've always loved, she tries to pick up a knife to threaten him but because of all the product placements, the only thing to hand is this absurd gimmicky abomination of a combo knife/cheesegrater/lord knows what

Great reaction! I believe that the baby stroller scene in this and a few other movies are all spoof of the 1925 silent Russian movie 'battleship potemkin' ;)

Bravo.

Lots of actors have played him, but Michael Keaton is my favorite Batman. Love this movie. Always enjoy your reactions, Jen! Yes, I had fun. :)

Some of the characters are real people but this film is not very historically accurate. One example is Frank Nitti. In this movie he's killed by Elliott Ness at the end but the real Nitti would go on to run the Chicago mob for a number of years after Capone was put away. Nitti would commit suicide in 1943 as he was staring down the face of a very long prison sentence and was pretty much ousted as boss of the outfit by Paul Ricca.

You need to see Police Academy. There's 6 movies. If you want to see the guy who makes sounds.

Hiya. Ennio Morricone film scores - A Fistful Of Dollars, For A Few Dollars More, The Good The Bad And The Ugly, Once Upon A Time In The West, Cinema Paradiso, The Mission, Once Upon A Time In America, The Professional, The Hateful Eight, the Kill Bill films - just to name a few of his 400 or so. Stay safe. All the best to you.

Maybe it's a different time, but everyone I know was blown away by Connery's performance when this was released. From his first scene to his last breath, he felt like a badass but worn-out Chicago cop not wanting to get involved, then proving he still had lots to give. Well worth the Oscar! And what a score ❤

You did the first and second Superman movies a year apart. This went up a year ago ... any chance of you watching Superman III? It's a bit goofier than the first two, but still a fun watch. :) The IV movie was a dud, so I wouldn't expect you to watch it, but the third one was enjoyable enough. I liked the first reboot movie done in 2006; it wasn't bad, but I haven't watched any of the later Superman movies with Henry Cavill as Superman, so I don't know if they're any good. I don't know if anyone mentioned it, but in the TV series, Superman was known to duck into a telephone booth (big box with a phone in it) to change clothes into Superman (for modesty's sake), but by the time the Superman movies came out, phone booths were gone and phone stands were the norm (because people got up to all sorts of shenanigans in those booths), so in the first movie, Clark looks at one of these stands for a moment and then runs into a revolving door and swirls through it rapidly as he changes clothes so no one sees him doing it. Lol. Just a little joke they worked in as a head nod to the TV show. :)

Another excellent and fun reaction, Jen! 😃

I love all of Morricone's work, and I don't think this film is his best, but I cannot hear the mournful bits of this soundtrack without tearing up. The only other music that gets me the same is Adagio for Strings in Platoon.

A fine film to review and react to. A classic favourite, great casting, music, direction and cinematography. And above all a well paced and well written script.

Both Nked Gun 3 and three, and Intouchables are referencing one of the most famous scenes in cinema history from Potemkin by Sergei Eisenstein

Many people are under the impression that Al Capone died in prison, not so. In May of 1932 at the age of 33 he went to prison. Due to his failing health he was released in January of 1939, serving less than 7 years. He lived out the rest of his years at his Palm Beach mansion in Florida. He died in January of 1947 at the age of 48.

The Naked Gun 3 spoofs the stairway shootout in this film which itself is a homage to the silent film The Battleship Potemkin

Hope you had a chance to see some of the original with Robert Stack. 😢 😘

Another fantastic Sean Connery movie is "The Hill". My late husband and I were rather stunned to say the least. And since I saw a short about "Enemy Mine" being weird, I'll ask for that too. Plus, "Tears of the Sun" with Bruce Willis.

You should watch Goodfellas. Best gangster movie ever in my opinion.

Connery _is_ great in this IMO but I suspect the Oscar was maybe one of those "You're getting on a bit and we haven't given you one yet" awards - more for his body of work than _this_ performance. Cracking movie though, kind of "big" as is often Brian De Palma's style but it fits the semi-mythical aspect of gangsters like Capone and of course Morricone is on fine form (his score for "The Mission" - also with De Niro in fact - from the previous year is also great, not sure the film itself is good "reaction material" though :).

Maud Addams who played Octopussy was also in The Man With The Golden Gun as Scaramanga's women and the only actress to play a Bond girl twice

Not so much loosely, its more or less the true story (albeit dramatized obviously) of how they 'got capone'. And the score is an absolute masterpiece (tbh the whole film is just wonderful and I adore it!)

Christopher Reeves was truly super. Loved every movie I ever saw him do. He was the Superman I grew up with. We were all jealous of Lois. Lol :D

You watched Sean Connery die in HighlanderJen. Head chopped off, castle exploding😅?

Charles Martin Smith who plays "Oscar Wallace" is such a great character actor. He's one of those actors who shows up in a film you are watching and you say "Oh yeah that guy, I like him". He plays the lead actor in a film called "Never Cry Wolf" a great movie.

“Okay; black tie off......” 💯😂🤣😂🤣😂

Think about Beverly Crusher. She plays poker with a walking supercomputer, a master class player, an unbluffable Betazoid, and a Klingon who could break her in half with his bare hands. *And she has never complained once!!*

Brilliant movie. All time great score and connory performance, WELL deserved oscar.

The girl who played Countess was married to Peirce Brosnan when this movie came out and Peirce was introduced to the producers of the movies, so he had been considered for Bond for a long time before he finally got the role, his contract for Remington Steel probably had something to do with him taking so long to get the role, just like Roger Moore and his contract for The Saint, otherwise he would have taken the Bond role sooner

Charles Martin Smith, the little guy, had a prominent role in American Graffiti, the movie that brought George Lucas to prominence.

PJ Soles was in Stripes too! Did you see Edie McClurg?

$3mill a year in 1930 is about $56mill a year today.

You need to watch Stardust with Deniro!

As much as Harry and Marv should have been dead in the first one they should have been even deader in this one

The rooftop fight and death of Frank Nitti is total fiction. According to two eye-witnesses, the tormented Nitti, who suddenly found himself on the outs with his own mob, put a gun to his head while in a stupor alongside a railroad embankment in North Riverside. It happened not during the city`s lusty rum-running days but a full 10 years after the repeal of Prohibition, in the World War II era that saw the middle-aged Nitti and other crime-syndicate capos extend their tentacles into other lucrative operations. In pulling the trigger on himself, Nitti, who had become a pariah among the piranhas, became the first major Chicago gangland character to cheat the government out of a trial by sentencing himself to death. The Volstead Act of 1919 ushered in the age of Prohibition. Canada did not have such a law.

It's mostly true, but there were several things that the filmmakers played very loose with. Frank Hitting was not killed by being thrown from a roof. A big hit when it was released

I didn't see it in the comments after scrolling for a bit, so I'm gonna just post it here. There was talk about a sequel some time ago, but not a direct one, not with Truman. Instead, the premise was that rather than making a set, they set up a scenarios in a city to just follow peoples lives. Only there are multiple shows like this, on different networks. Then one day two stars of highly-rated shows on competing networks meet by chance and end up falling in love, while the producers and network heads all conspire to keep them apart.

31:38 I accidentally spit on my phone just then..

Robert Stack played Eliot Ness in THE UNTOUCHABLES tv series (1959-1963), and I used to say up late with my dad (and the line, "Rico, Rossman, Youngfellow - Cover the rear exit!"). Really groundbreaking stuff with topics like prostitution, narcotics addiction, murder and violence - drawing tons of negative press. Ayn Rand even wrote an article defending the series as detailing good guys/bad guys and the need for heroes in a good vs evil world.

I actually liked the next two, idk why people tend to have such a problem with them, I was raised with indy, born 1978. So, uh yeah for whatever that's worth. I say, watch the rest, keep an open mind!
