You probably don't want to watch Walkabout then either.
Walkabout is fairly frightening at times. My crush with Jenny Agutter started with that film.
He's more prone to adapt Mattel's Shogun Warriors and call it chanbara.
Anton Walbrook performs his masochism with soft silk, and peaceful music all while dressed to the nines.
IIRC Harper was a PA during this time and clashed with Joyce (who was already clashing with JNT) for much of the production. Joyce became overwhelmed and Harper took over with JNT's approval.
It's a well done serial. I can see why many don't like it though. The pacing doesn't really drag I don't think as much as the serial collapsing near the end due to it's ambition and the amount of ideas crammed into it. Romana's slighted farewell is one result. I've found the love for it (not all but much of it) comes…
All three cliffhangers are staged really well. The opening five minutes of ep. one is well done despite "nothing" happening.
Damon really carried this movie. He did a magnificent job establishing tics and mannerisms. When he was asked a question or called on bullshit he would do that "Funny you should ask snicker/exasperated look" and twist out another lie. It was great.
If you're just getting into Conan comics you should really check out the Windsor/Buscema/Thomas era or Savage Sword collections. The writing and stories are fine today but the artwork is souless compared to Windsor and Buscema. More than any other book the artwork is as important as the writing. The young and lean…
Thumbs hooked in pockets is just bad body language and frames the crotch.
There is some great acting by Henry and Carlin in this. They are very subdued. But when it comes to a scene requiring emotions they really hit the high points. Also, the song sung by the girl about screwing is as funny as the pot smoking scene.
I'm lucky to have dual monitors and my back to the wall. I quickly minimize if need be which is rare.
The mother was much more empowered in the first, IIRC. She carries the action in the end. The mother was weak in the remake. Doris Day borders on hysterical for much of it.
I like the first as well. In Truffaut's book he preferred the remake due to the extension of the suspense during the Albert Hall sequence, Herrmann's score, and the construction of the shots taken. Even Hitchcock says something like, "I was an amateur on the first and a professional on the second."
