So with nothing to add on the film, let me just say I really like the current banner. :-)Operator_99https://www.blogger.com/profile/14819912040219743778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155853741712764167.post-75919106618541813432009-04-20T14:37:00.000-04:002009-04-20T14:37:00.000-04:00I'll definitely check out the Brattle Theater.

Check out the Hemingway short story too (I found mine in a collection of Nick Adams stories), it's only a few pages and left me even more blown away by the "adaptation."<br /><br />I'd never seen the 1964 remake myself until the DVD release of both--that one's worth it just to see Norman Fell and Ronald Reagan sharing scenes together (they kind of went their separate ways after that!).Cliff Alipertihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07791559437928473638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155853741712764167.post-32530546891422593992009-04-19T21:49:00.000-04:002009-04-19T21:49:00.000-04:00Nice one to see on the Big Screen.

(My dad lived in Waltham for a couple years due to a job. I also have a close friend in No. Easton.) Wish I could see THE KILLERS or CRISS CROSS in a theater, although I do have them available on tape or DVD...there used to be many revival theaters in L.A. and Orange County, and when I was a teen we went to see old movies in theaters several times a month. (Keep in mind this was the '70s/early '80s and for most of that time there wasn't video or cable TV...!)<br /><br />There's nothing like seeing a film up on the "silver screen." :) So great you could enjoy the experience with your mom.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing!<br />Best wishes,<br />LauraLaurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09626109831176745957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155853741712764167.post-7439074369381423572009-04-19T12:49:00.000-04:002009-04-19T12:49:00.000-04:00Such a marvelous film and a noir I can watch over ...Such a marvelous film and a noir I can watch over and over.
