Yay! :) It's been a couple of years since I watched that film, but recognized the actress's face. Do you know if the male lead (can't recall his name at the moment), who gave such an excellent performance in Pong Pong has made any films since he suffered a bad fall from his apartment balcony a couple of years back?



I'll be back shortly with a screengrab. . .

Since it's Independence Day, I'll go with a film from the U.S. of A.

Hey,

NOT FAIR! :crybaby:

I had too many other great screengrabs to put up, especially one where Todd Louiso smashes a phone into Tim Robbins' face!

But yes, you're correct. I love that film! I also love the novel, by Nick Hornby. The London setting translates amazingly well to Chicago for the film version with John Cusack as Rob.

Koyuki is a really sweet actress. I was happy to see her get the female leading role in "The Last Samurai".

As for Yôsuke Kubozuka, yes, aparently he has made more movies after that.

hey,

quite familiar with High Fidelity anyway, probably would've gotten the phone cap. ;) Always amazed how little to none of Iben's Danish dialect comes through in her performance.

Hehe! But your pic was tricky. At first I also thought this could be from an old Shaw Brothers movie... :wink:

The Classic ?
I used to be "the man who loves the movies you hate".
Now I'm just "that weird french guy with a cat avatar who comes to BnB once a year for no reason and then disappears again".
