Good for a few giggles...........

Also recommend, From Dusk till Dawn. Has an interesting cast: George Clooney, QuentinTarantino, Harvey Keitel and Juliette Lewis, and host of others along with Tito & Tarantula as the house band.

Giggles? Who wants giggles. I want a movie that makes my jaw fall wide-open with shocked, howling laughter, and I want to fall to the floor. I want senior citizens and children to be that amused, too.

I don't recall when I saw such a masterpiece last.


Damn few masterpieces are made these days and fewer still with any real lasting power....

But that really sounds like you desperately need some serious giggles; way too much serious all things considered round here these days.

I foresee a Marx Bros marathon in your future! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Yes, that was fun, a peak into a world many of us have few clues about or familiarity with . Didn't the Hispanic man who played the house-servant go on from there to have quite a career in entertainment, such as in the Ray Donovan series on tv where he played a mean FBI agent?

P.S. My wife and I look forward enthusiastically to the return of Ray Donovan .

P.P.S. Shall we add Favorite TV Shows and Series to this thread? We liked the series named "Boss," in which Kelsey Grammer played the mayor of Chicago .

And an outrageous series about the worst father on Earth, "Shameless," is a big favorite of mine
But the wife hates it and won't watch it.

And we are now getting into "Bull."
We miss "Downton Abbey."
Our minds are currently being blown and undecided about the new series, "The Young Pope," which is difficult for this old RC to take. :mrgreen:

I can't get favorite movies down to 100 so TV shows would go into 1000s.

I've see that one -- truly strange and disturbing. Sort of David Lynch meets the Vatican on acid.

Yup. Plus several other mental-case influences. Did you see the episodes including the kangaroo? Do you think the animal is a metaphor?

Just about everything on this one is either got 3-4 meanings or they are just total random non-sequitur images/scenes.

Having seen most of Lynch's works, his influence is clearly there, but just ratcheted up a few notches....

...and it's difficult at times to discern what scene is in the moment-to-moment of present time and which scenes or interrupters are flashbacks, like that moment where the pontiff faints/collapses/swoons into the lap/arms of the female who has been stalking him.
