Nice !!<br /><br />As for the Raging Bull, it's time for re-watch now because only thing I remember from it is De Niro asking Joe Pesci to hit him. :)SDGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09331736603243732602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784665635104956142.post-33463985273101384992012-06-08T20:01:57.576-04:002012-06-08T20:01:57.576-04:00Fuck, I need to see this again ASAP.

It just said a lot and that last shot... whoa.<br /><br />I was shocked by it but I was more shocked that when Mia Farrow was the guest programmer for Turner Classic Movies. She picked that film (along with three others including <i>Fanny & Alexander</i>) as some of her favorites. She admits she's not a fan of violence but she felt the film was powerful enough, especially de Niro's performance, that it was among the reasons why she had it played on that channel.thevoid99https://www.blogger.com/profile/03055459287396592446noreply@blogger.com
