In the Name of the Father and Age of Innocence

Posted by Dana S. on September 27, 1999 at 14:53:32:

OK, MMMMarcia. I had a lazy Sunday and watched two more DDL films. They were both remarkable. I've never accually 'studied' an actor before, and it has been fun.

In all the films so far, that "I'm lookin' at you, Miss" smile(my favorite)makes an appearance. That's where any resemlance in DDL's characters ends as far as looks are concerned. It's amazing!

The Age of Innocence was really wierd. The imagery was
very 'sharp'. Sharp cigar clippers(whatever those things are called), sharp pens, and sharp hat pins. The scene where Newland's wife hugs him while holding a hat pin gave me the willies. It was all fasinating, though.

I really liked In the Name of the Father. I'm going to watch it again this evening. I didn't catch the father character's name...he broke my heart.

Well, MMMMarcia, that's five down. I can't wait to discuss these at G2K.

BTW, is it my imagination, or do all these films (LOTM,Boxer,Age, Name of the Father, and even Bounty)have a "please leave me out of your rebellion" theme in common?
