TY, Skittles.
Skittles
(172,880 posts)when he passed he was 77 so he didn't make it to 80 like Maude, although in real life Ruth Gordon was 75 when she made this movie. And Vivian Pickles, who played Harold's mum. is still going strong at age 94
edited to add that Cat (Yusuf now), born the same year as Bud (and with Harold in one of those funeral scenes) is still entertaining!

(14,206 posts)It kept the audience in their seats for that final scene in the cemetery. Did you know an entire orchestral score was done for the movie but when Carrol Reed heard Anton Karas' zither music he ditched the orchestra?
50 Shades Of Blue
(11,503 posts)It was on their album Coast to Coast that I got when I was 12. I saw their movie (still one of my favorites) when it came out the following year.

House of Roberts
(6,634 posts)Ellen Burstyn started acting in TV and movies in 1958 as Ellen McRae, and changed to Burstyn in 1970. I watch a lot of old tv shows on various retro channels and spotted her in a show, and looked up the episode to see who she was, found her as Ellen McRae, then discovered the switch.

I just looked at some of the other responses to your question, and I take back what I said about
this being "an odd one". It's certainly is no odder than many of the other entries in this contest.
Thanks, Red Dog, for posting this, it's a good one.

(40,409 posts)Quentin Tarantino has a thing about eclectic music, and boy howdy, he picked a great one for the opening of Reservoir Dogs.
Oh, speaking of opening scenes, it was brilliant using Sea Lion Woman for a haunting mood setting opening for The Generals Daughter.

(38,540 posts)While I fully understand Kevin Spacey's pariah status, more than a little disturbing given the plot of the movie, he was at the height of his acting powers in that film, perhaps because he wasn't actually entirely acting.
It was however the first time I heard the Lennox version of that song.
Elliot Smith's rendition of Because is also unbelievably moving.

"That Thing You Do!" from the 1996 movie of the same name, starring Tom Hanks. Oh, now I have to go watch it...

(33,471 posts)I've seen it multiple times.
The drummer, played by Tom Everett Scott, looks exactly like a young version of writer/director Tom Hanks.
