                             BED AND BREAKFAST
                       A film review by Ken Johnson
                        Copyright 1993 Ken Johnson

104 min., PG-13, Comedy, 1992
Director: Robert Ellis Miller
Cast: Roger Moore, Talia Shire, Colleen Dewhurst, Nina Siemaszko,
      Ford Rainey, Jamie Walters, Stephen Root

     Talia Shire runs a Bed and Breakfast with her daughter Nina
Siemaszko and her mother-in-law Colleen Dewhurst.  One day Siemaszko
finds Roger Moore washed up on the beach outside of their house.  They
take him in and find out that he has amnesia.  Dewhurst makes him the
handyman for the Bed and Breakfast.

     BED AND BREAKFAST was filmed in York Beach, Maine in either 1989 or
1990, I believe.  Since I live just down the seacoast from there and
remember reading and hearing a lot about the filming, when it came to
the local theaters I had to go and see it.  I enjoyed this film and
highly recommend that you attempt to see it.  On a scale of zero to
five, I give BED AND BREAKFAST a four.  BED AND BREAKFAST is rated PG-13
for explicit language and adult situations.

     This film was not what I was expecting.  I was expecting through
what I had seen in the local papers some sort of drama about New England
life.  I was pleased that instead, the film was a good natured comedy.
BED AND BREAKFAST has now been released on video cassette, so it
shouldn't be too hard to find.

     I found this film very enjoyable to just sit back and watch.  The
film has a great cast.  Roger Moore (THE NAKED FACE, LIVE AND LET DIE)
is great as the stranger.  Talia Shire (THE GODFATHER, COLD HEAVEN) is
wonderful as the mother who is trying to keep Nina Siemaszko going
straight.  Colleen Dewhurst (THE BOY WHO COULD FLY) is exceptionally
great as Talia Shire's mother.  I think that Colleen Dewhurst was the
best out of the entire cast.  Nina Siemaszko (WILD ORCHID 2: TWO SHADES
OF BLUE) is very good as Talia Shire's daughter.  For the teenage girls
there is Jamie Walters ("The Heights"), who does what he does best,
looks cute for the girls.  This film is very well written and is
beautifully photographed.  The director, Robert Ellis Miller, does a
great job, getting excellent shots to go with the film.

- Always casts Dick Miller in a cameo or supporting role.  His films are
  therefore good for playing the "spotting Dick Miller" game.

We had a sneak of this at the theatre I work at last Wed
I happened to be around that night so I watched it.

Possible spoilers 

Loaded Weapon is the latest in the Spoof Genere, along with Hot Shots
naked gun etc.  Loaded Weapon is a spoof of the Leathal Weapon Movie 
series.  In fact the plot is taken from the original movie Lethal 
weapon with relativtly few changes.  The two new partners one played
by Emilo Esteves as the riggs character and the other played by a 
man whos name escapes me as the murtaugh character are out to stop 
an ex special forces general from bringing in drugs into the country
disquised as Wilderness Girl Cookies.  For Me, It just did not work
the jokes and sight gags were lame at best.  The actors in this film
should hardly be called actors, they would have probably done better
if they were reading off Que cards.

They only thing worth mentioning about this film are a couple 
of good cameos.

In a nutshell, don't waste six bucks seeing this film you will be 
sorely dissapointed, it sucks.  Go rent Naked gun instead if you
want to see a good spoof movie.

 It stars Tom Berenger.

 From what I've seen in the TV commericals, it looks like some super-deadly
 military sniper is suppose to kill some South-American-Drug-Army-type dude
 but misses and gets chased for the rest of the movie.
 
 Of course, I've only seen it twice, so I could be totatlly wrong.

Anyway, the January 21, 1993 USA Today Life section contains a full page
(page 5D) of the movies of "1993 Coming Attractions".  Included are one

I know this is a shot in the dark but nothing ventured, nothing gained.
It's on TV and it's a movie, so I've posted to both groups.

HBO is showing a made-for-cable/tv movie called "Blind Side" (1993)
this Saturday on Jan 30, starting at 9 p.m.  The movie stars
Rutger Hauer, Rebecca De Mornay and Ron Silver.

I was hoping someone would be nice enough to tape this movie for me? 
Of course, you will be compensated for the tape and your effort.

Please respond by e-mail to lau@desci.wharton.upenn.edu so we can
set this up.  Time is short.  Thank you very much!

It's not for everyone...but it is an excellent film, hailed by critics.
It has a good chance of getting an Academy Award nomination for best
film of the year (if that means anything) and appeared on many (if not 
most) critics Top 10 films of the year.

Emma Thompson (the star) is a shoe-in for the Best Actress Academy Award.

<much deleted>

   In "What I Saw at the Revolution", by Peggy Noonan (a working class woman
   from New Jersey who became a Reagan speechwriter by way of Farleigh
   Dickinson and CBS News), Noonan makes it clear that she's actually
   profoundly unsympathetic to the real goals of the Reagan "revolution",
   which were to make the American people accept a permanent decline in
   their living standards.  Yet with her incredible verbal facility she
   deceives even herself, and (like a Soviet intellectual under "dear
   Father" Stalin) writes beautiful prose about what a great man Reagan
   is (a page or so later, she admits that he's a child of an alcoholic.)

Surely even you can recognize the total irrelevance of your

True.  A better example would be "Basic Instinct."  Remember
that the book got dropped by it's first publisher for much
the same reason.  And the studios are probably wary of

That would also explain why Stoltz appeared in a bit part in Crowe's

with the entire part played behind mime makeup, he wasn't very recognizable.

Yo, Steven!

I noticed your booklist on the english dept group, thought about writing
in about Housekeeping, but it sort of seems like its becoming a private
chat line...didn't know how welcome my comments would be.
If I were you, I would definitely focus more on the book than the film. 
You could always say something like, "I'll be showing the film of
Housekeeping Wednesday at 7pm in blah blah blah Dwinelle.  'Office'hours
will be held after the movie at Kip's upstairs (if open by then) after the
film for anyone who wants to discuss it."  Then, the Cliff note crowd will
know there's a "movie of the book" (no skin off your nose) and it could
turn into a cool riff session with those who do show up.  But I would not
commit any class time to it esp. if you're showing the other films during
class (which I would also advise against.  Someone I know showed "The
Shining" a couple semesters back, in class.  That's a long film, and is so
slow to build that it deserves to be shown at one sitting.  We'll talk
about this elswhere, maybe?

Ob wierd films:

_Seconds_ (John Frankenheimer, 1966: Rock Hudson, in a film about
"mistaken identity" which is not a sex comedy with Doris Day and which
resonates interestingly and touchingly after his death.)

_The Sound and the Fury_, starring Yul Brynner as Jason Compson(early
60's?)  If you've read the book, this definitely qualifies as wierd.
