I second that, excellent character portrayal by Robert shaw.....likewise Brody and Hooper.
Did you know Robert shaw was born in Bolton Lancashire...just up the road from my house, there is a pub called "The Robert shaw"..........Sweet!

A little known film called "painted boats"...made in the 40s this B&W film is a gentle story of the lives of two families living and working on the canals of britain. Surprisingly enjoyable little film here.

Superb! No, I didn't know that. I suppose the locals enjoy singing a few verses of show me the way to go home before closing time

Not forgetting of course Robert Shaw's terrific performance as Henry the Eighth in A Man For All Seasons. Once again a very much a larger than life performance if that makes sense?

[George 1978]

Saw Our Ladies last week at the Odeon in Liverpool (if their theatre is good enough, then their cinemas should be as well). It's mostly about a load of teenage girls played by relative unknowns in a Scottish convent school on a day trip to Edinburgh with lots of adult themes as you may have guessed - set in 1996 when ironically, the characters portrayed would have been the same age as myself back then.

Makes a change to have a UK based film instead of the American domination that are always in cinemas. A 15 certificate, so there's a bit of language in he dialogue.

I do know the one, a Hammer production if I remember rightly.
Didn't Barbara Shelley star in that film?
I thought she was terrific in Dracula Prince of Darkness.
One of my favourite Hammer films....apart from The Plague of The Zombies!

No...as stated this is a remake, better than the original IMO, The leading lady is Linda kozlowski (think i spelled that right) out of Crocodile dundee.
