First topic message reminder :

Right, here we go with the start of the Culture Cup 2.0

All nominations are cast and the voting process is ready.  If you’re not all voted out after the excitement of yesterday, then please put your X in a box here.

Think carefully as you only get one vote and vote cancelling is not allowed.

The question for this round was - WHAT IS THE BEST FILM WITH NO MORE THAN 2 WORDS IN THE TITLE?

Remember, this is open TO ANYONE ON 606v2 WHO WANTS TO VOTE.

I’ve cunningly used www.random.org to mix up the titles so they are not in order of the list of posters.

Many thanks,
Tino.

You really do run this thing with a rod of iron Tina

I'm quite fearful as to what Adam has picked. Knowing what my first choice was and for it still to be him that is accused of being gay is scary.

Difference is, your first pick is a truly outstanding song. It really is.

Adam has picked a song that Graham Norton would consider too camp.

Looking good so far.

I won't vote for it, of course, simply because you picked it but it is a good song, I'll concede that much.

I hope you enforce the "solo" artist rule to the max by the way

Don't tell me how to run my tournament, Adam. I think I've already proven that I run this place according to a strict set of criteria.

So you are basically using the instruction booklet from the 1970s boardgame Colditz?

Did not want to upset SERIALDAVE by picking a METAL song. That is the same reason I gave BONNIE TYLER a wide berth.

No it was a genuinely great song Sean, but it has been snatched from under my nose. Am genuinely too upset to say much more at this point.

Nominate it for the Art round. Recent history here indicates it would beat the Mona Lisa.

I once won a prince charming competition at Pontins. When I say won it I mean absolutely obliterated the field, if it was a fight they would have stopped it after the bowing round such was my clear dominance.

Three awards!!!!  Three awards you say?  INCLUDING THE PRESTIGIOUS PALME D'OR!!!!!! Why, Galted, that"s scarcely credible!

Believe it, Jeff, it happened.
 Is this the same Palme D'or that awarded Farenheit 9/11 the best film award?

My mate Andy from school won a competition for drawing his family.  It ended up being shown on Hartbeat.

I once won a prince charming competition at Pontins. When I say won it I mean absolutely obliterated the field, if it was a fight they would have stopped it after the bowing round such was my clear dominance.

This was 'Captain Poofinger' Andy. The very same.

Good artist, was Andy. I remember he made a Millennium Falcon out of toilet rolls, tin foil and old tins. It was f*cking ace.

It lasted till lunchtime till someone stole it and scattered it's constituent parts all over the playground.

I played prince charming in a school musical despite the fact that singing, dancing and acting are three of my most hated activities.

According to Vincent Canby of the New York Times, Barton Fink "has the manner of a work that was written in a high old halcyon rush, of a screenplay that announced itself and took form without a lot of nervous pushing and probing to give it existence. It is seamless, packed with the sort of pertinent and priceless detail that can't be worried out of the mind piecemeal".

According to Terrence Rafferty in the New Yorker:

It feels thin. It's an empty tour de force, and what's dismaying about the picture is that the filmmakers... seem inordinately pleased with its hermetic meaninglessness.

He's clearly a frustrated wannabe film-maker who has a thesaurus as his only friend.

Err, turns out I voted for myself, as it clearly stated I'd be told if I didn't get my first choice Laugh

Women sound awful when singing so I'll need to ask for my wife's opinion on the next round.

Not one scene in The Histrionic Godfather beats the majesty of Robert Shaw talking about the time he was coming back from the island of Tinian to Leyte on the Indianapolis, having just delivered the bomb..... Wink

DerBarenJude from Los Angeles had this to say about Barton Fink...

"The Coens have created a truly amazing artistic masterpiece with this film. Easily qualifying as one of the weirdest films I've ever seen, this film does not allow you to feel comfortable for a second. You spend the entire film waiting for the other shoe to drop, and when it does, you find yourself waiting for another one...and it never does! Amazing plot, amazing acting by Turturro and Goodman, and simply unbelievable direction. A movie that symbolizes every thing that is great and that people love about the Coen Brothers. Do not consider yourself a Coen Brothers fan unless you have seen this movie more than once."


He or she gave it 10/10.

That is one of the greatest scenes in movie history.  That whole segment when they are below deck exchanging stories and scars.  It's just brilliant.  Possibly the best scene of one of the greatest films ever.

Tino from 606v2 had this to say about Barton Fink...

It's a sh*te film and it got no votes on the Culture Cup 2.0.  Deal with it and move on you cockwomble.

He or she gave it 0/10.  Like the rest of the forum.

I remember Barton Fink coming out. The fact that it is in black and white put me off for some reason, which is weird as I loved Schindlers List.
