In Reply to: Sir Alan Bates died. posted by patrickU on December 28, 2003 at 02:13:41:
I remember all the furor we caused at our film society by running the film---campus conservatives (there weren't many at Minnesota) were upset at the wrestling match between actors Alan and Oliver Reed.
I haven't seen the movie in decades: I wonder if it aged well?
BTW, is Glenda Jackson the ugliest actress ever to ascend to leading status?
Follow Ups:
Just bought the DVD. I'll probably watch it after New Year's.
Of course it was made in the last part of the 1960's "Let's Make a Really GREAT film" era. An era that gave us a some really good films and a lot of tedious, pretentious (and sophomoric) merde. So, I will view it with some excitement mixed with some trepidation.I only hope it holds up. I rather liked it at the time. I'll post my reactions later (with dutiful genuflections to the true denizens of this forum).
Politics ?
Keep cool....Every honest man will grow over his shadow.
The ugliest lead actress? I think both Juliette Lewis and Julia ROberts beat her handsomely (Huh!) to that title.Granted, I wasn't too conservative when the movie came out, but neight myself nor my wife were offended by the nudity - there was that definite Olympic feel to it - and I guess that was the whole idea.
I haven't seen it again either.
He was a good actor... RIP.
