Where the HELL have you been???

Good to see you Dub, this thread is taking off like, well something really fast.

OK, I'm posting a "chick flick" to slow things down.

Big girls don't cry but I gotta tell ya, I did watching this one.

I was by myself on a Sunday morning. When it ended, I was bawling like the 1964 NY Yankees when my beloved Cards swept them.

Actually... sleeping or trying to at least... my sleep schedule is so screwed up right now its not even funny. :/

While you people think about Webbies (already got it ) Ill throw another into the mix.

Instead of Midway I was gonna guess Easy Rider. . .oh well!

Hokay - webbie - "Portrait of a Lady"? Bloody incredible film - liked it even more than the book.
And, Dub - it's not "Happiness" is it? - if so, then was there ever a clue (or title) more ironic? The scene with the Dad and the son - just right out of the of drawer.
Actually, these two films are both right up there for lingering uncomfortable moments.

And I'd like to post a few - I'm getting the hang of this - but I can't seem to get any images uploaded. Schoolboy failing, of course, but I've swallowed my pride and would appreciate your help.
Cheers

Nope, but we'll say close enough. Lucky Dub got it right.

It's "Portrait of Jennie." Starring Jennifer Jones and Joseph Cotton.

For those who want to know:

USA 1948

"A haunting story of a rift in time, "Portrait of Jennie" (1948) was taken from a novel by Robert Nathan and directed by William Dieterle. Cotten plays struggling artist Eben Adams who finds inspiration and happiness with Jennie, (Jennifer Jones) a mysterious girl he meets by chance in Central Park. When she first appears, Jennie is a precocious twelve-year-old who chatters on about places and events that happened years ago as if they were current. Eben never knows when he will next meet her, but each time he does, Jennie has grown a little older. One day she is in his apartment when he returns home, a beautiful young woman of eighteen, and Eben begins to sketch her for a portrait.

Jennie appears once more, now in her twenties, and Eben finishes his masterpiece, his Portrait of Jennie. Now deeply in love, the two plan to be together forever, but Jennie tells Eben she must first be away for a short time - she mentions Land's End at Cape Cod.

Months go by, and when Jennie does not reappear, a despondent Eben tries to trace her - a nun (Lillian Gish) at a convent where Jennie attended school remembers her very well, but tells Eben that Jennie died years ago - drowned in a huge storm that struck...Land's End. Eben makes the journey to Cape Cod, and must race against time and the elements for the chance to alter destiny.

Not a success upon its release, "Portrait of Jennie" has grown in its appeal in the years since - the ethereal story of an expansion of time, a collapse of boundaries, or an overlapping of both. The chemistry between Cotten and the luminous Jennifer Jones was never better. The stunning cinematography by Oscar-nominated Joe August and composer Dimitri Tiomkin's use of themes by Claude Debussy add immeasurably to the dreamlike quality of the film. "


I held up pretty well until the last scene.

No sir... nothing to do with smiling, lies, faces, or happiness.

Alrighty as Mr Thoreau says; "simplify, simplify", let's guess "Nine"

nope

next clue and prolly a giver:

Plot: This movie portrays a group of adolescents that are unsupervised, no where mature to be on their own really, and carry that all-to-grown-up attitude while roaming the streets of New York. One of the characters has just been recently diagnosed with HIV and is trying to notify the one who gave it to them, who themselves are on a venture to claim a sexual quest on to those that never have been there before not knowing of their current condition of being HIV positive. The film follows the characters as well as their friends though their daily activities of, hanging out, drink, smoking, partying, as well as just being a menace to society, yet never letting you go of the fact that some of them are barely in the stages of puberty .
