"you knocked the piss outta the man who knocked the piss outta me"
So I was flipping around on TV last night, and came across the movie Monument Avenue, which I'd heard of but never seen. Everyone and their grandfather is in that movie: Denis Leary, Ian Hart, Billy Crudup, Martin Sheen, that guy from Beautiful Girls and Frequency, the cute Irish guy from Titanic, and Colm Meaney. I swear, I see Colm Meaney in so many movies, you'd think he's made 100 of them. But he's only made 55 (according to IMDb). And I love all the ones I've seen him in: The Commitments, The Snapper, The Van (collectively known as the Barrytown trilogy), Far and Away (from which the title quote comes), the pilot movie for Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman, The War of the Buttons, This is My Father, The Boys from County Clare.... the list goes on.
Meanwhile, as my sister and I were surfing IMDb (and MuggleNet) last night, I came up with a short list of some older movies I have been wanting to see:
*The Dead
*Last of the High Kings
*The Hi Lo Country
*Charlotte Gray
