This why I have grown to love aged films. I see similarities in Notorious in today's movies. My wife and I watched this last night. She was hesitant when I said black and white and 1946. She's not a movie buff like I am, but I said Alfred Hitchcock she happily took a seat next to me.
Anyways, some time into the movie we came to a scene which immediately reminded us of a movie we were watching with some friends a few days back while I was showing of my "Best Buy system" (hey, I live in an Apt.) Even further into the movie we came across a few more scenes that made me think how unoriginal most movies are today. Anyone notice these scenes and agree?
The movie was Mission Impossible 2
The scenes where:
1)Cary Grant talking to his collegues in the office about getting the girl to do a job and Grant is reluctant saying she can't do the job since he is attracted to her. Same with Cruise and Hopkins.
2)The next scene is Grant and Alicia talking about her taking the job and if Grant approves. Both scenes in both films happen right after the other.
3)Alicia getting back with her former lover to spy on him and report back to Grant
4)The scene with Grant and Alicia at the race tracks talking about the progress of the job and if she has gotten back to the old times with her previous lover.
5)At the end of the movie Grant saving the "ill and poisoned" heroin from the bad guy.
I now enjoy MI2 less now but it's still a great brainless flick.
As always your opinions welcome.
