Highlights of the 70s list. Pared down a bit from the other thread's lists that I make to include only the ultimate highlights. And yes, I know my taste can be strange..... 1970 Airport Catch-22 Darling Lili Donkey Skin I Never Sang for My Father Little Big Man Lovers and Other Strangers Patton Puz...

What did he expect Joan Collins to do -- tell Jack Hawkins how to whistle?

Guys, I know I'm going to incur wrath here but....can I just say that I have never cottoned to FUNNY FACE? In fact, it has taken me more than a few times to actually get through the whole movie. And I am someone who loves Astaire, Audrey, and Stanley Donen! I've been trying to analyze why I'm not a ...
