Carnal Knowledge, a review by HalTitle: Carnal Knowledge Year: 1971 Director: Mike Nichols Rating: R Length: 98 Min. Video: Anamorphic Widescreen 2.35:1, Pan & Scan 1.33:1 Audio: English: Dolby Digital: Mono Subtitles: English, French Stars: Jack Nicholson Candice Bergen Art Garfunkel Ann-Margret Rita Moreno Plot: One of the most controversial movies of its time, this "thought-provoking" (Leonard Maltin ) comedy-drama from legendary director Mike Nichols (The Birdcage) is a funny, poignant look at relationships as seen through the eyes of two friends over a 20-year period. Superbly crafted by playwright Jules Feiffer, Carnal Knowledge is brimming with touching insights, sexy banter and powerful performances by three-time Oscar winner Jack Nicholson, Ann-Margaret, Candice Bergen and pop music icon Arthur Garfunkel. Jonathan (Nicholson) and Sandy (Garfunkel) are college roommates who share an endless fascination - and obsession - with women. As time goes by, their relentless pursuit for the joys of the flesh becomes more competitive. And more damaging. Soon, Jonathan and Sandy's lives become a vicious circle of girls, booze and unfulfillment, and they realize only too late that - in the war of the sexes they are their own worst enemy. Extras: Scene Access My Thoughts: (From Carnal Knowledge on July 4th, 2010) The Amityville Horror (Original), a review by addicted2dvdTitle: The Amityville Horror (Original) Movie Count: 74 TV Ep Count: 26 Time Started: 4am Plot:My Thoughts: This is one of the ghost stories that made me love the ghost/Hauntings sub-genre so much. I was still just a kid when I first watched this movie... and for the longest time was my favorite ghost story. I have watched this movie many times since then... and it still entertains me to the day. This one I highly recommend. (From Month-Long Horror/Halloween Marathon on October 27th, 2007) The One Where It All Began: The Pilot Marathon, a review by DJ DoenaMacGyver What's the show about? MacGyver is a very gifted man. He knows practically everything about mathematics, physics and chemistry. And he knows how to put that knowledge to practical use, he could build a bomb out of a ball-pen and a chewing gum. He is sent out by the Phoenix Foundation to help out where he is needed. "Pilot" After reclaiming a targeting device from a crashed plane and the pilot from the hands of the Russians, MacGyver is needed in New Mexico. In an underground science laboratory happened an explosion. A lot of scientists are trapped within, among them two Nobel price candidates. Additionally an acid leaks threatens to contaminate the groundwater of the entire area... My Opinion What could I write without repeating myself? Magnificent show, especially with MacGyver's refusal to use guns. I'll rewatch it this year, after I've got all the seven seasons complete.
