I gave up on Tango after they started naming themselves with grunts.
having never seen the movie myself, all I have to say is:
WTF?
Angel: Miss me? Lilah: Only in the sense of…no.

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.

We just watched The Maltese Falcon. Both of us had seen parts of it before, but not the whole. Very good movie. I loved that they didn't pull any punches with the character of Sam Spade. And there's a moment where Bogart looks more terrifying than anyone I've ever seen on film.
Next up, Let The Right On In. Since we both received it from Netflix this week (time to coordinate the queues again).

I just saw Maltese Falcon a few months ago for the first time, as well! Excellent film. Lorre and Greenstreet are terrific in it, as is Mary Astor, and Bogart too, of course.

Oh, I enjoyed this movie. I hope you both do too.

Like many kids, I thought all black and white movies were by definition boring and not worth watching when I was young. They were all made by old people, for old people.* It was a real pleasure discovering that, in fact, many black and white movies turned out to be just as scary, sexy, violent and f#@% with your head as anything made today.
*It should be noted here that, for a time, I thought the world was in black and white in the past. All old pictures, TV shows and movies were in black and white, and the new stuff was in color. Seemed like a logical deduction at the time....

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
