	I, too, rented this just last week after having seen it in
	the video store for a while. I thought it was very good. 
	It touched on the subject of "young love", puppy love or whatever 
	you want to call it, in a pretty realistic setting (IMHO).
	It didn't make light of it as many movies tend to do. Being
	in love (or thinking you are) at such a young age, and then
	finding out the love isn't reciprocated, can be devastating.
	I thought the scene towards the end where Danny (the young
	girl?) sees her older sister crying on what's his name's grave,
	(sorry, I'm terrible at remembering names) and then making up 
	with her sister was very touching. I'm usually not the type of 
	person who enjoys movies that try to jumble my emotions, but 
	I truly enjoyed this movie.
	I have always liked Sam Waterson and the girl that
	played Danny did an outstanding job.

Well, Margaret's conversations were all overheard -- Roman watched them 
together at the costume party, he might have been nearby at the wedding, he
was on the phone when she was, he walked in when she called him.
The big error was her remembering "These are for you."  Only Margaret could
have seen that, and she couldn't have told anyone about it.

  One of the very few genuinely scary movies, I, personally have ever seen is 
_Misery_.  I don't frigthen easily and there were a few bits in this one that
scared the hell out of me, maybe becasue they were more startling than
anything.   The acting is good (Kathy Bates won an academy award for this one)
and the directing (Rob Reiner, who's still underrated, IMO) is fantastic.
Definitely worth renting, anyway.

I'm not sure if this "goof" was previously adressed on the net but--
in "A League of Their Own" there's a crucial scene where the catcher
blocked the plate for an incoming runner.  I seem to remember that this

More inattentive than you know!  (Sorry, I couldn't resist.:-)  )  The
film, like the play, is set in Chicago.  They refer to "the office on
Peterson" at one point, for instance; Peterson is an important
north-side street in Chicago, and as far as I'm aware nonexistent in
New York.  

The locations looked like convincing northside small neighborhoods, the
right kind of 2-story houses and all, with the El stop overhead, and I
was wondering where exactly they'd filmed it.  What a shock during the
end credits to discover they'd faked it all in New York!  (locations and
Astoria Studios)  Is NY-for-Chicago a "first" in movies?

Gee, if only somone had asked this question earlier, it would

Deckard is not his last name, it's his first name.  His

While we are quibbling, something about the ending to the movie sort of bugged
me.  First, let me say that I did enjoy the movie quite a bit.  Here's my 
quibble:  Hawkeye's father (can't remember his name) gave his speech at the 
end about being "The Last of the Mohicans" in English.   It seemed to me that
at least most of the time he spoke his native language (with subtitles 
supplied).  Why would he make this last statement in English?  Actually, I
know why, so audiences wouldn't have subtitles instead of words to end the
movie.  As I said, its just minor thing but I thought I'd mention it to 
see if others noticed it.

Did anyone besides me think that the Kevin Spacey character DELIBERATELY

I thought Spacey looked a little too smug during Pacino's and Lemmon's
tirades?

I though the movie was terrific!  I saw it again last night and made sure to
check Al Pacino's expression when Jack Lemmon told him he made the sale, since
that was a question on this group.  Al Pacino looked strange after Lemmon
said he closed the sale today.  Pacino said, "You closed TODAY?"  I took this
to indicate that he was afraid that Lemmon would win the car since Pacino's
sale was in question.  Any other ideas?

This movie IS really awful, but I kinda enjoyed its cheesiness.  Everything is
crude about this film ... acting, fx, dialogue, plot.  This last scene in

At a guess, I'd say he's talking about an editing rule of thumb also 
called "crossing the plane".  Basically, the idea is that, once you have
shown a shot of something from one angle, you do not want to cut to a
shot of the same thing from an angle 180 degrees opposite.  (Or anything
close to it.)  I've never seen an example of it where the resulting
effect was shown, and I've only heard it described as "looking funny".
I presume that a good filmmaker who knows what he's doing can use the
effect to good purpose, but that inept ones make it look bad.
