Johnny Guitar (1954)

fun and entertaining!`

This movie is very interesting to watch. Crawford is, well JOAN CRAWFORD. With her trade mark lips and acting style. Mercedes McCambrige is wild and mean as vinegar. The dialoge in this movie is baaaaaaad stuff! Man, I'm gonna use some of that in everyday conversation. I'm glad I saw it.

Bagdad Cafe (1987)

bagdad cafe is genius

[10 June 2002]

this movie is the most unique i've ever seen. the song "i'm calling you" is hypnotic and comforting all at the same time. cch pounder is fabulous as the grumpy frustrated motel manager and marianne sagebrecht is wonderful as the visitor to bagdad.

Claudine (1974)

if you're into the 70's black urban culture, CLAUDINE'S for you!

Claudine is one of those movies that you don't want to end and when it does you make up additional scenes in your mind! This movie is about a woman with 6 kids "living" on welfare in the bronx. she has a gig on the side as a domestic worker. she hooks up with a garbage man, named rupe and they hit it off, the kids however ain't trying to hear it. the story evolves around rupe trying to bond with the kids, claudine trying to battle with the welfare system and curtis mayfield's sound track punctuates the mood of the movie. gladys knight and the pips' vocals are tops! this movie has a "good times","coolie high","monky hustle" type of vibe to it. please see it. do it for me.
