Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I love Mel in Mrs. Soffel. He is wonderful in it and so is Diane Keaton as the warden's wife who falls for a prisoner. [link] Based on a true story and filmed in the prison where it actually happened.
It is hard to see it and think of what a wreck of a human being he has become.

Harry Lime's in the Third Man. Just the glimpse of his shoe and the cat in a dark alley way.
