"In space, no one can hear you scream"

 

Tells you everything you need to know about 'Alien' in eight words.

 

I just re-watched 'Cinema Paradiso'. I noticed (through my sniffles) that the official tagline on the cover is the rather lame sounding: 'A celebration of youth, friendship, and the everlasting magic of the movies'.

It struck me that a more succinct 'All the Kisses you Never Seen' more suitably encapsulates everything you need to know and should expect from this wonderfully evocative work of nostalgia?

 

Mind you, at this stage, I've had a few ales but someone must get paid handsomely for coming up with these. Any improvements on the classics?

If nothing else, the dodgy grammar tells you it's a foreign film.

No she isn't.

 

It was actually called $3000 when initially released, however it kinda overemphasises the fact she was a skank.

 

Bit like if Dirty Dancing was called 'Grown man grooms & then fucks impressionable teenage girl'.

 

Wouldn't get birds creaming themselves over these films then !

Probably why I'm not in advertising !
