didnt see a thread for this movie.


Just saw it, and I loved it. Phillip Seymour Hoffman was amazing in it.

I love Hoffman, I'm really excited that he's finally getting the recognition he's deserved for so long. I'll be very happy if he whens best actor at the Oscars.

Can't wait to see this movie when it comes out on DVD.

DarkWizard
^Same.

I have a feeling this will be a cult classic for years to come.

Cinemaddiction
Cult classics don't get Oscar nods, much less recognition for being a good movie to begin with. It'll be a shining indie, for sure.

Solo
'In Cold Blood' is probably one of my favorite novels of all time. PSH is awesome, I love how he came from some indie movie ('Happieness') to something as mainstream as this.

Morning_Glory
never saw Happiness, but Im gonna go rent it now.

has anyone else seen Capote, because I have a few questions...?

also didnt know that Capote wrote Breakfast at Tiffanys embarrasmentembarrasment

BackFire
Happiness is outstanding, both him and Dylan Baker put out top notch performances.

Pulp fiction is a cult classic. yes

7 oscar nods, if I recall correctly.

BackFire
I'd consider Pulp Fiction simply a classic.

Ive always thought PSH was good in all his movies, even the movies that bombed, ...like The Talented Mr Ripley (personally I love that movie, but I know that a lot of people thought it was a waste.)

True.

But does it seems like you're the only one in your area who studies it?

Everyone around here;

A: Hasn't seen it

B: Doesn't get it

or C: Quit watching it, due to violence and vulgar language.

Is it just me?

Almost everyone I know loves the movie. It's a new age classic for a younger generation, that's all.

7 Oscar nominations, and it grossed $213 Million dollars. It's a popular movie, not a cult classic. Not even close.

Oh by the way, For those of you who have seen 'Capote' and 'In Cold blood',

...ignoring the fact Capote wrote (or in those days, typed) "In Cold Blood", it's a pretty common font.

Speaking of fonts, I came across this site a few days ago.

Thought you might find it useful, if not already found.
