Oh god I hated him so fucking much in that film. I just wanted to punch him in the face. I did like him quite a lot in American Heart, though.

No...I adore Audrey Hepburn, but that wasn't her best acting job...the kiss in the end? Pretty stiff stuff.

"Two For The Road" or "Sabrina" maybe.

Malcolm McDonald seems to be a forgotten star, Clockwork Orange.

I think I only saw two other movies.

Michelle Pfeiffer isn't my favorite star-- I like her all right, but that's it. Usually.

But I think she has a quality in Ladyhawke that's special. She looks luminous. Radiant and luminous.

Malcolm McDowell. :coffee:

And his best roles (in my completely biased and lustful opinion) are "if..."

and "O Lucky Man!".

I'm so happy someone else knows that film! :swoon: None of even my oldest and best friends, except the one who happened to see it with me in Stockholm when it was first showing, even recognize the film's name. :(

It was such a fluke: sometime in the mid(?)1980s, we were shepherding a class of high school students (could have been my youngest sister's senior class?) on their class trip and got an evening off from the "real" grownups. And it was raining, so we checked out the movies, simply because we had some time to kill. Chose "Ladyhawke" because of the feeling/style of the poster. Came out two hours later pretty stunned and quite content, both of us.

It’s organic. Make stuff for the internet that matters to you, even if it seems stupid. Do it because it’s good and feels important. Put up more cat pictures. Make more songs. Show your doodles. Give things away and take things that are free." - Maureen J
