Looking for Richard
its a movie/documentary about the Shakespeare play "Richard III" . but don't let the word "documentary" make you reject it. its a bunch of really really big actors talking about what it was like to make a Shakespearian movie (which does not exist in real life). and its not a bunch of old guys saying "blah blah Shakespeare blah". its Al Pacino and other big names I can not remember that are explaining everything, along with a good ol' copy of Shakespeare for idiots. its pretty good. it really puts Shakespeare in a new light.

I'm a John Wayne nut. All his movies are good.
Just watched one today, as a matter of fact.

The last John Wayne movie I watched was "Rio Bravo", and I caught an error. When Ricky Nelson is talking to the bad guys, they alternate back and forth between 2 camera angles. From one angle, Nelson's left hand is always at his side. From the other angle, it's always resting on a hitching rail.
Finding stuff like that doesn't spoil a movie for me. I know nothing is perfect, and I find it amusing. In fact, being a big fan of Steve McQueen, I've watched the chase scene in "Bullitt" so many times that I've figured out that they only drove down that hill once. They filmed it from several angles, then edited it so it looks like they went down 3 times. (Though with the same extra cars pulling onto the street each time.)

Yeah, it's funny when you catch something the directors and editors missed.
I watched The Comancheros today.

This should tell you everything you need to know. Internet Movie Database can tell you virtually anything you want to know about a movie.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105695/parentalguide#certification
Other excellent movies by Clint: "Blood Work" and "Million Dollar Baby".
I want to see "Letters From Iwo Jima". I've heard good things about it.
