Make your own movie double-feature with a theme... (1 Viewer)

Yes, but I was thinking more along the lines of the extreme states of isolation the characters are feeling, rather than the acts that the feelings drive them to.

Good call on the mirror scenes, Martin. I hadn't thought about that.

 

[Derek Williams]

Fast and Furious & Two-Lane Blacktop

 

[Jesse Skeen]

Indiana Jones and Devil in Miss Jones- one hates snakes, the other loves them! (DMJ is the most repulsive movie I've ever seen, BTW, but had to include this!)

Deep Throat and All The President's Men, or All The President's Men and Dick

Pick-Up Summer and Joysticks- pinball and classic video games

Independence Day and Mars Attacks- followed by discussion of which one is better!

 

[Peter Apruzzese]

Dead Again and Defending Your Life - both have a significant plot point about "karma".
Taxi Driver and The Projectionist - lonely New Yorkers with a fantasy complex.
