Older Movies That Are Forgotten

Hate to say, in another thread about Peaky Blinders, Blacklist thread, both of which are a great series, but I get tired after a few views. Thus I needed a break.

So I surfed Netflix and found "Awakenings". One of the better Robin Williams obscure films. Not a fan of Robert De Niro, but a good flick from 1992.

I watched it a long time ago. Glad I found it again. I like historical films and a feel good or bad story.

Recommended.

What other hidden gems are out there...

We all have our preferences. This is a generic, not niche classic ala Rocky Horror Picture Show nor Monty Pythons stuff nor Casablanca.

Lot of love for Kurt Russell, deservedly so. Dude is awesome.

If you wanna see another side to Kurt Russell, check out The Battered Bastards of Baseball. It's a doc from about ten years ago covering his time playing in independent league baseball up in Portland. Team was owned by his larger than life father. Great, great stuff.

Hackman OWNS that movie. When he grabs Michael Rooker's balls, I feel that.

"Now get this straight shitkicker! Don't you go confusin' me with some whole other body. You must have your brains in your dick if you think we're gonna just walk away from this. We're gonna stay 'till this gets done."

Turns to the Brad Dourif, Deputy character...: "How 'bout you, Deputy. That gun of yours just for show or do you get to shoot people once in a while?"

Frees Rookers nuts: "Thanks for the beer."


What's got four eyes in it and can't see? Mississippi.

And oh baby... the scene when he gets to have some fun with the Deputy/Brad Dourif. Soooo satisfying... "You got a stupid smile, you know that?" "Make no mistake Deputy, I'll cut your ****ing head off and not give a shit how it reads in the report sheet."

Pure intimidation. Dude knew how to be scary as hell without going over the top. Just ask Morgan Freeman from their time together on Unforgiven.

"Now I ain't gonna hurt no woman. But I am gonna hurt you (Ned). And not gentle like before... But *BAD*."

I thought of another old 80s comedy that is definitely forgotten - My Chauffer. Starring Deborah Foreman, Howard Hesseman and Sam Jones from Flash Gordon, in the only other movie I ever saw him in besides Flash Gordon. Also features a very young Penn and Teller.
