Bad Boys (1983) with Sean Penn

The soda cans in the pillowcase scene is super awesome.

That's about all I remember from that movie.

 

[JohnRice]

Holy smokes. What a sale. Benny and Joon... Highly recommended.

I’ve also always liked Pieces of April.

…and of course, the awesome cult classic May.

I have a few titles on my list that I just received Cheap Chart notifications for. Been waiting for SAVE THE TIGER to drop to $4.99 and it finally has during the period I have been tracking it. Never seen this film and I am a big Jack Lemmon fan. He won Best Actor for his performance so I have been itching to see this.

Never saw it either. Picked it up yesterday and watched it last night. Wife and I both liked it. Very different role for Lemmon. Liked seeing Thayer David and Lara Parker too!

Hi Robert!

I liked the film as well. It is a completely different role for Lemmon and his performance was as remarkable as I had anticipated it to be. No argument that his Best Actor win was well-deserved here.

I have always loved Jack Lemmon. The first time I even knew he existed was watching THE PRISONER OF SECOND AVENUE as a teenager. And if you have seen that film, his performance just grabs you and I was forever a fan. Of course, I had to work backward over the years to see his more notable earlier roles in SOME LIKE IT HOT, THE APARTMENT, and MISTER ROBERTS.

In the Line of Fire is on sale yet again, but I keep forgetting why exactly I should just get the 4K disc instead -- I do have the old BD, which seems plenty inferior (enough). Something to do w/ the audio being significantly inferior compared to the 4K disc (beyond what might be normal of lossy vs lossless tracks). Can anyone remind/fill me in on that? I tried searching on the site, but couldn't find the info.

Thanks!

Thanks for mentioning this film, Ron. I love Lemmon's work, but have never seen this one. I just picked it up.

That's what I love about this thread. Sometimes a person mentions a title that I would have missed. Found some gems here.

Pretty good week for me as well. Blind buys of Save the Tiger, Elephant Walk, Dementia 13, and Godspell. 4K upgrades of Italian Job (‘03), Never Say Never Again, and Meaning of Life. And Masquerade (‘88) for my spouse who happens to be a fan.

 

[JohnRice]

It won't let me buy Bad Boys. It acts like I bought it, but it doesn’t show up as purchased. I wonder if I’ll still be charged twice for it.

Funny you mention The Prisoner of Second Avenue. I saw that when it first came out. I was kid and I happened to be living on 2nd avenue in Manhattan at the time. All great movies you mention. I also love a lot of his work with Matthau through the years. One thing I thought he was also very good in was The Murder of Mary Phagan miniseries.

I doubt it. I don't think they'd believe it would pay for itself.

I bought it, too, even though I had already bought a couple of seasons already when the DVDs had gone bad. Still a better price savings to buy this package than to buy the individual four seasons I didn't already have separately.

Seems like today is Harrison Ford Day on iTunes. Lots of his films on sale for $4.99 each. There is also a sale on ocean / sea themed films, as well.

I picked up Witness in 4K + Dolby Vision, U-571 in HD, and The Poseidon Adventure in HD. I had U-571 on DVD only, and did not own either of the other two. I think I had The Poseidon Adventure on DVD at one time.

Seems like today is Harrison Ford Day on iTunes.

He's got a new TV show debuting on AppleTV+ today.
