Not always, but often, you find Ed Harris in the bigger "blockbuster" movies—Apollo 13, the Abyss, National Treasure, The Truman Show, A Beautiful Mind, etc. With the exception of the Lord of the Rings, Viggo Mortensen tends to gravitate toward the smaller, "quieter" character dramas—Hidalgo, Captain Fantastic, Eastern Promises, The Road, Thirteen Lives, A Dangerous Method, A History of Violence, Greenbook, etc. (though after his success playing Aragorn, many of these "quieter" movies did quite well at the box office. By the way, Hidalgo is one of Viggo Mortensen's less dark movies that I think is right up your alley.

2023-04-24 07:48:01 +0000 UTCI actually do love Green Book as a standalone piece of fiction but from a social standpoint, it is a bit irresponsible and at times backwards in the way it handles race. It's so unfortunate because the movie is truly wonderful and worth watching. But it would be informative to also look into why many in the black community may not have loved it as much. I do recommend watching the movie though.

2023-04-23 06:13:42 +0000 UTCThere’s a lot wrong with that movie. Saying it’s based on a ‘true’ story is pushing it a bit.

2023-04-22 22:10:16 +0000 UTCLike I’m going to continue this. I said how I feel. Let it go. Move on. It’s not that important. You’re still acting deeply weird.
djKENTO
2023-04-22 21:46:27 +0000 UTCBill W - Saying you don't think Cassie will like a film and saying she'll absolutely hate it are two different things, and I'm not overly fond of people saying the first one. Saying absolutes about her hating or loving a film are equally wrong, which is why I never do it. All I'm asking is can we let Cassie decide what she does or doesn't like after a movie actually wins a poll, instead of putting preemptive personal spins on it designed to sway her opinion before she's even watched it? Before it's even made a poll? Saying I love or I hate a film is perfectly fine, saying Cassie will love or hate a film is presumptuous and implies a deeper knowledge of her likes and dislikes than any of us has. And of course this is applies mostly to more mainstream films - saying Cassie would love a rom-com or hate a extreme horror film is much more safe, although I'd personally add a 'probably' to either of those statements, if I made them at all.
Richard Maurer
2023-04-22 19:48:56 +0000 UTCdjKENTO - This is BS and you know it. This site has suffered from constant white knighting of movie choices for Cassie almost since it began and you've been around long enough to know that. For you to try to pretend like my post came out of nowhere is just gaslighting, pure and simple. And saying that you somehow "know" Cassie will hate a film is no different than saying that a film is "too much" for Cassie, you're still trying to keep her from watching something based on your personal assumptions. You can call it "aggro" and "weird" all you like, because I feel the same about you and your need to dismiss films for consideration (films not even on polls yet) based on your "knowledge" of what Cassie will or will not like. Saying you think Cassie won't like a film is one thing, but saying she will "absolutely hate" a film is quite another, and is a little creepy as far as I'm concerned, as it sounds like you think you know Cassie way better than you actually do.

djKENTO
2023-04-21 23:56:16 +0000 UTCI really don't like dismissing a film because "she won't like it" for whatever reason. You don't know that. how about letting Cassie decide that for herself?
Richard Maurer
2023-04-21 23:01:46 +0000 UTCDid I say she couldn’t handle it? Did I say it was because it was violent? I just don’t think she’d like a movie that bleak based on the reactions I’ve seen. It’s not a big deal.
djKENTO
2023-04-21 18:57:18 +0000 UTCPLEASE watch Green Book with Viggo Mortensen. Great movies based on a true story
Kim Brink
2023-04-21 18:52:46 +0000 UTCHere we go with the "too much for Cassie" thing again. Let's see how many films I can remember that she watched that were "too much" for Cassie. 300, Robocop, Full Metal Jacket. Virtually every horror film she's watched. She survived them all. And before you say hating it is different from just getting through it, she was supposed to hate 300 too, but she liked it. I would prefer she make up her own mind about mainstream movies like A History of Violence, then have some of you tell her what she will think. I think the title might give her a clue that it would be pretty violent, so let's let her decide if she hates it or not.

2023-04-21 08:06:28 +0000 UTCBoth are excellent actors. Viggo was outstanding in Captain Fantastic, his best dramatic role in my opinion outside of LOTR. He also has a minor role in the classic movie Carlito's Way. As for Ed Harris, The Abyss is a must watch!

2023-04-21 03:25:50 +0000 UTC@David Collins I sent Cassie a blu-ray copy of Deja Vu. She said she had seen it. SPOILER I think the only demon-possession movie Cassie and Carly can watch is Fallen.

2023-04-21 03:05:19 +0000 UTCYep. Vanessa Bell Calloway & Marcello Thedford also co-star in that movie alongside Viggo. I would definitely recommend that movie to Cassie & Carly as I did so for Addie Counts.

For me at least, the preachy scenes were a complete turn off, and changed the uplifting mood towards the end of the movie.
