    The Vampire Lovers. Hammer horror from 1970 - from a cinema era when men were real men , women were real women and lesbian vampires were real lesbian vampires. Surprising good (with lots of tasteful and well rounded nudity..).

    4 extremely voluptuous Lucy Westenra's out of 5 Van Helsings'

    The Vampire Lovers (1970) ⭐ 6.4 | Horror

    The Apartment and His Girl Friday. Damn I love screwball comedies and Shirley Maclaine was smoking hot in her younger days. I can pretty much watch most anything with Maclaine, Audrey Hepburn and Lauren Bacall

    Yeah, a lot of vintage films are seriously good and more than hold their own.

    There's an TV channel in the UK called Talking Pictures which showcases old, forgotten British films they have often restored with the British Film Institute. Often go thru their schedule and record/watch some great stuff.

    I think what would be more awkward would be comparing women to your mum.

    Debbie does Dallas is a classic "I'm told".

    I think @taniwharugby said it will get interesting at day 7.
    So rom coms, anything with Hugh Grant after that? When the insanity is taking hold?

    Hoping to stick to stuff the whole family can enjoy, the 7yr might be a year or 2 away from DDD?

    I do actually like a but of HG now that you mention it, loveable cad that he is

    @voodoo you might as well ditch the whole list if you plan to watch the never ending final Lord of the Rings movie.

    I watched The Deer Hunter again the other night. I love the movie but had forgotten how long it was (~3 h). Trimming about 30 mins off some scenes like the wedding would have made it so much better.

    Anyway, John Cazale was dying of cancer during filming and passed away before the film was released. He only appeared in 5 full length movies:

    The Godfather (1972)
    The Conversation (1974)
    The Godfather: Part II (1974)
    Dog Day Afternoon (1975)
    The Deer Hunter (1978)

    That's some resume.

    Gotta love the Fern - post a serious question and the first 4 responses are as useful as tits on a bull - love this place! :face_with_stuck-out_tongue:

    Thanks @canefan , good suggestions - need to think about the rapist/pedo in ConAir, cant remember how in-your-face those scenes were - and the groupie midget sex scenes in Zolander, though I think those would be fine from memory
