Directors: Argento Dario

Actors: Musante Tony,Salerno Enrico Maria,Raho Umberto,Romano Renato,Castellano Giuseppe,Adorf Mario,Patti Pino,Di Marco Gildo,Bonaro Omar,Mingozzi Fulvio,Peters Werner,Horror,Mystery,Thriller,

Where can I find DVD's or VHS's of quasi -classic French and Italian films of the 60's and 70's?
There were dozens of endeariing moves during the 60’s and 70’s such as "Dear Detective," "Come Have Some Coffee with Us" and "What Now My Love" that are nowhere to be found. There are also some strange works like "Investigation of a Citizien Above Suspicion" and "Bird with the Crystal Plumage" that have disappeared in the U.S. (as far as I can determine).
Many of the films in this category are from noted directors, feature top performers and extraordinary soundtracks. There are even several Academy Award contenders, yet they are unknown and unavailable here.
Can anyone suggest a source or vendor?


In the UK there is Moviemail, which stocks vast numbers of this type of film.

www.moviemail-online.co.uk

Be warned though, they are often region 2 (or sometimes region 0). NTSC region 1 are not available except in very rare cases. Why? Apparently because your tastes are so rare in the USA it isn’t worthwhile distributing them. So get a multi-region DVD player.

I also noted that you gave all the titles in English. Most of these will be French or Italian titled, with English sub-titles (only rarely an alternate English sound track). Why? See above.

But if like us you really do love these movies, then all this won’t matter.

Enjoy.

How does one get into the animation field?
I want to be able to create my own cartoons eventually. I love the unique worlds such as Cowboy Bebop, or Aeon Flux… and I want to know how to get a job like that.


I graduated from art college several years ago. AAC in the bayarea. If you don’t know anyone who’s in animation field, you can try to present your idea and art work to the teachers in art school. Most of teachers in my school are not professional educator but professional artist. Such as most teachers who is teaching animation may from the big film company. Some of them fly from LA to give us class everyweek.
I thought you may start from their if you go some good stuff. But if you really got some great stuff, be careful with who you deal with. We had sign the contract that all our works belong to school when we were. I have known there some teachers keep student’s idea become their own…

Look into getting enrolled in a graphic arts class in a college or school, and take it from there.

Do a course in Animation…. If your drawing is very very good, then you stand a good chance.
nice_libra_guy | Mar 24, 2006


If you have the love and obviously talent you can!
Good animation takes countless time and effort.
Be consistant do not drift in to other things in that area
You can professionalize abything if you just keep on keeping on!

Goodluck, animation is good fun work
bringin life to a character is certainlya great feeling of giving birth.

Lookout, The
Lookout, The (2007)

IMDB rating: 7.40

Plot: An admired high school hockey player (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) with a bright future foolishly takes a drive in the night with his girl friend and two other friends with his headlights off with devastating results. The former athlete is left with a brain injury that prevents him from remembering many things for extended periods of time. To compensate, he keeps notes in a small notebook to aid him in remembering what he is to do. He also lives with a blind friend (Jeff Daniels) who aids him. Obviously, with the mental incapacitation, he is unable to have meaningful work. Thus he works as a night cleaning man in a bank. It is there he comes under the scrutiny of a gang planning to rob the bank. The leader (Matthew Goode) befriends him and gets him involved with a young woman (Isla Fisher) who further reels him in. After they get close and after reeling him in with his own failures, the bank plan unfolds. Confused but wanting to escape his current existence, he initially goes along with the scheme. After realizing he is being used, he attempts to stop the robbery, which of course immediately goes awry. Bruce McGill and Alberta Watson also co-star as the young man’s parents, who still search for the person that was there before the tragic crash.

Credit Card settlement?
Hello,

I have a SBI credit card which i had used. I have also stopped making minimum payments since the last 3 years. The principal outstanding of my card is Rs. 25000 and the total outstanding is 70000. I got a call from the collections department asking me to pay 30000 towards settlement of the account. Now after 2 months i got an e-mail from the person asking me to make a payment of 40000 towards settlement of the account in 4 installments. In my exchange of emails with the officer I had mentioned that i am out of job now due to the recession and am still on the lookout for a job, but I am willing to repay back in installments. I am not sure about how I can get this card settled or how much will be waivered of because of settlement. Please suggest as to how much can be waivered and is it the principal limit I have to take into consideration or the total outstanding?

Thanks & Regards,
Vincentj

In card settlement you should have a good bargain power. If they are asking for 40000/- then it could be settle in around 30000/- and what ever the settlement amount you could pay in installment.
nit | Feb 09, 2010


Vincent, with the debt in question being 3 years old, before you agree to ANYTHING please check the Statute of Limitations (SOL) for your state! If the age of your debt (the elapsed time between now and the last time you paid) is greater than or equal to the SOL, a Debt Collector can pursue you BUT the debt is uncollectable! Got to http://www.creditinfocenter.com/rebuild/ statuteLimitations.shtml, find your state, and look up the number in the "Open Ended" column. This number is the SOL and again, if the age of your debt is greater than or equal to this number, you can tell the Debt Collector to (insert expletive) off! (In legal terms, of course!)

Pineapple Express (2008)

But when Dale becomes the only witness to a murder by a crooked cop and the city’s most dangerous drug lord, he panics and dumps his roach of Pineapple Express at the scene. Dale now has another reason to visit Saul: to find out if the weed is so rare that it can be traced back to him. And it is. As Dale and Saul run for their lives, they quickly discover that they’re not suffering from weed-fueled paranoia; incredibly, the bad guys really are hot on their trail and trying to figure out the fastest way to kill them both. All aboard the Pineapple Express.

Plot: The centennial of the small town of Antonio Bay, California has finally arrived. However, the events of 100 years ago are about to come back to haunt the town, because a conspiracy of the town’s founders resulted in the deaths of several lepers in a shipwreck. The conspirators had planned to lure the lepers’ ship towards the rocks so that it would sink, and they could recover the cargo of gold and use it to pay for building the town. The sinister plot succeeded when a fog rolled in, blinding the crew, and forcing them to follow the false fire on shore. Now the ghosts of the Elizabeth Dane’s crew are back – and so is the fog that led them to their doom. Only now, it conceals and protects the ghosts of the crew, as they seek their revenge on the residents of Antonio Bay…
