Movies about Movies: The Final Reckoning The arbitrary, narrow and capricious"official rules" called for movies "in which we see some aspect of the film making process...:" The response was overwhelming. I think that we heard from some 40% of the SCREEN-L subscribers. Some ingenious Screen-Lmers stumbled into a DeManic depression and de-construed the rules to include films about film exhibition (marked on the list with an E), and some truly creative souls included films about television, acting and still photography, most of which I threw out, in an arbitrary, narrow and capricious manner. Eventually, there was a mutant digression in the discussion thread, and it went off in the direction of champion all-time bad movies with no redeeming values. Thanks to all, and best wishes for: a) Happy Hanukkah, b)Merry Christmas, c) Happy New Year, d) Joyous Ramadan, and e)all of the above. -Henry Breitrose THE LIST 8 1/2 10-30-55 A Movie The Actress After the Fox Ali Baba Goes to Town Allegro Non Troppo American Werewolf in London (E) The Bad and the Beautiful Barton Fink The Big Knife The Big Picture Bob Roberts Body Double Bonnie and Clyde (E) Buster Keaton Story Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (E) The Cameraman Cinema Paradiso (E) Come Back to the Five and Dime, Jimmy Dean Contempt Cow from Hell Crimes and Misdemeanors David Holzman's Diary Day for Night Day of the Locust Death Watch Demon-Lover Diary Diary of David Holzman Dracula (E) E La Nave Va (And the Ship Sails On) Ella Cinders Errand Boy Everything for Sale Fade to Black French Lieutenant's Woman Fury (E) Gable and Lombard Good Morning, Babylon Great Waldo Pepper Gremlins (E) Hardcore Hearts of Darkness Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer Holiday Inn Hollywood Boulevard Hollywood Boulevard Hollywood Boulevard, Part II Hollywood Cavalcade In Search of Famine Inner Circle (E) Inserts Inside Daisy Clover Kid Auto Races at Venice King of Comedy King of the Road (E) The Last Command The Last Movie The Last Tycoon Law of Desire Lightning Over Braddock Lightning Over Water Man in Love Man of Marble Man with a Movie Camera Man with a Thousand Faces Medium Cool Memories of a Waltz from Old Havana Memories of Underdevelopment Mephisto Mission to Moscow (E) Movie Crazy Muppet Movie My Favorite Year Never Give a Sucker an Even Break Over the Rainbow Overdrawn at the Memory Bank The Party Passion: A Letter in 16mm Peeping Tom Persona Play it Again Sam Player Popcorn Pornographers Purple Rose of Cairo (E) Return of the Son of Gunga Din Rocketeer S.O.B.
