Okay, enough for now. :stunned:

[Jewel]

And some quotes :D

Annette Hargrove: I'm impressed. Sebastian Valmont: Well, I'm in love. :heart:

:nice:

Kathryn Merteuil: I hate it when things don't go my way. It makes me so horny.

:stunned:

Kathryn Merteuil: I think there's something going on between Cecile and her music teacher. Bunny Caldwell: Ronald? That's crazy! Kathryn Merteuil: I know, she's so young and he's so... Bunny Caldwell: Black!

:stunned:

[Reading a virgin's manifesto] Kathryn Merteuil: "Why I Plan to Wait" by Annette Hargrove, Kansas City, Kansas. Holy shit, is this girl for real? Sebastian Valmont: Oh, she's daddy's little angel, a paradigm of chastity and virtue.

Sebastian: I read your manifesto. Annette: You did? Sebastian: Yes. I must say, I found it rather... appalling. Annette: That's a first. Most people praise me for it. Sebastian: Most people are sheep. Who are you to criticize something you've never experienced? Annette: I wasn't critcizing. I just think people shouldn't experience the act of love unitl they are in love and I just don't think people our age are able to experience those kinds of emotions. Sebastian: Are you a lesbian? Annette: No! Sebastian: Sorry, I just kind of picked up on that lesbian vibe.

:D

[Jewel]

Annette: I wouldn't expect a man of your experience to understand my beliefs. Sebastian: Uh! What's THAT supposed to mean? Annette: I've been very well-informed of your reputation. Sebastian: What have you heard?! Annette: That you promise girls the world to get them in bed with you. Sebastian: Who told you this? Annette: A friend wrote me. Sebastian: That's a little tacky. Annette: Why do you sound so surprised? It's the truth isn't it? Sebastian: If you say so.

[Jewel]

Kathryn: Everybody loves me, and I intend to keep that way.

Sebastian: Why can't we be together? Annette: You wanna know why? Because I don't trust myself with you.

[Jewel]

Sebastian: We've done some pretty fucked up shit in our time but this...I mean, we're destroying an innocent girl. You do realize that?

[Mimixxx]

Nice quotes. :)

You've inspired me to put it on :idea2:

[Jewel]

Good :D

[::Hayley::]

Jewel - of all your many posts none of the pictures are working :(

but i checked out the website!!!


woooohoooooooo i am going to buy the soundtrack :D

[Jewel]

Meh, they all work for me.

And yay for buying the soundtrack, you won't regret it, it's amazing!

[Jewel]

Meh, they all work for me.

And yay for buying the soundtrack, you won't regret it, it's amazing!

[::Hayley::]

i went and bought it thisafternoon :lol:

when i get a chance to listen to it all.... i'll review :D

[musiclover]

well i saw this movie some time back...a few years i'd say. it wasn't that great. i mean, it was okay...middle-of-the-road kinda thing.

i guess ya'll liked it 'cuz of the young 'hot' hunks of stars! :rolleyes: :P

reese witherspoon and that Buffy actress aren't too shabby looking either! :D

[Jewel]

blaspheme :stunned:

The story is excellent (though old), the music is excellent and yep, the cast is great. But to each their own. :)

[::Hayley::]

i guess ya'll liked it 'cuz of the young 'hot' hunks of stars! :rolleyes: :P


:o

That wasn't the reason I liked it actually. But as Jewel says, each to their own.

It was a great storyline and I loved the way we saw Sebastian's tender side sparkle through because of his new-found his love for Annette.

The music was perfect for the movie and this accentuated my liking for it.
In my opinion it shows the way we search for love, but it only comes when we are least expecting it.

:cool:

[musiclover]

yeah, wasn't it based on an old classic novel? :cool:

I didn't say it wasn't great...it was alright. but in the teenage genre of movies, it wasn't a runaway success...i don't know if it even hit it big at the box office. may be...

music...i don't know how it goes, so can't really comment on it, but since u like it, i'm sure it's nice :nice:

:idea2:

[nanda]

I kinda saw it...

:/ :huh:

its this simple:
i was in brasil after 1 year in the us, me + my b/f + some friends + us in a closed room, everybody on the floor, except for me and my b/f on the counch, in an empty house = kinda seeing the movie, only hearing it, :wink3:

[::Hayley::]

it was based on "Dangerous Liasons"

[musiclover]

oh it has the Bittersweet Symphony...that too as a finale! :stunned:

[Jewel]

Yep, that was the first part I ever saw of the movie, the end with my fav song. :stunned:

[musiclover]

oh really! cool...yeah, the ending is nice...that Buffy- actress gets a taste of her own bitter pill...! :D (if i remember the storyline correctly :embarrased: )

[musiclover]

oooo I liked Colorblind by CC :smug:

[Jewel]

Yup...

Colorblind reminds me of Liz :idea2:

[musiclover]

yep me too!! but i e-mailed her some time back when she pulled down her site and she didn't reply...well, she replied once and i wrote her another reply and then she didn't write back :confused: :/

did that even make sense?

[Jewel]

Maybe she's busy. :idea2:

[musiclover]

btw, yep...i was right...it IS based on the novel Danderous Liaisons (by a French author, written in French originally), and I have seen the movie of the same name too...which won the Oscars! lol and in fact, there is another adaptation of that same novel, i forget the movie name though...i kinda liked that movie too. :D

any case, here's the link:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00004D0EP/ref=pd_ecs_d_h__m_h__a/202-4552101-8690265

[Jewel]

There's a movie with Michelle Pfeiffer and Glenn Close

^ that link refers to Cruel Intentions

[musiclover]

yeah...its a review to Cruel Intentions.

now that i think back, after reading the review, i too kinda enjoyed some parts of it :cool:

[musiclover]

ahhh got it...this version is the one i like the most! :-) though it too didn't win any awards nor much critical acclaim...but i feel it's close to the original novel...


"Valmont" starring Colin Firth, in 1998
Colin Firth and Annette Bening, on the other hand, are lively, attractive, sexual, likeable rogues. They may indulge in power games, but it is apparent that they enjoy their encounters. I especially liked Firth in the title role as a Valmont whose company would be great fun at any occasion, and whose seductiveness owes at least as much to his innate charm as to his conniving. Old ladies and children like him as much as his lovers, while Malkovich carried a dour, superior presence which could spook children and animals. Both fine performances, but Firth's Valmont is a guy you'd have a drink with. If Malkovich bought you a drink, you'd switch glasses on him.

check it out someday :D

[Jewel]

Haven't seen it, but Firth is good (ole Mr Darcy). Annette Benning. hmmm.. :confused:

[musiclover]

oh their on-screen chemistry is yummy and tantalizing! :D

[Jewel]

I won't know till I've seen it, but I guess it's easier for me to identify with a younger cast. :idea2:

What's on the soundtrack to this one anyway?

[musiclover]

oh i dunno 'bout that...i don't own the movie or its soundtrack, and i saw that movie long time ago...

and well...i am not THAT old to identify with Annette Bening etc. either...LMAO :P

but for me, the quality of acting counts, as does the setting. the movie sets for that movie are quite elaborate too.

anyways, i'm off to lunch, then a branch meeting. talk to u laters! :cool:

[musiclover]

btw, i sent u something about tea at ur hotmail acct. :)

[::Hayley::]

*bump*

I would have bought it just for #1, but I don't have a video player @ uni :rolleyes:

[badlydrawngirl]

yeah good movie, the first time i saw the demise of ryan phillippe's character i was shocked :stunned: the bit with bittersweet symphony playing over the end is class though :cool:

[Jewel]
