Today i'd like to give 2 /moviesuggestions with 2 gifs for the first one which is a classic from 1983 called "Rumble Fish" starring Mickey Rourke and Matt Dillon in the main roles and a bunch of other famous actors like Nicholas Cage, Dennis Hopper, Diane Lane, Laurence Fishburn etc.
It's more like a drama film directed by Francis Ford Coppola and based on the 1975 novel Rumble Fish by S. E. Hinton, who also co-wrote the screenplay with Coppola.
It was a box-office disaster, with its widest release earning a total of $2.5 million against an estimated budget of $10 million. It is notable for its avant-garde style with a film noir feel, shot on stark high-contrast black-and-white film, using the spherical cinematographic process with allusions to French New Wave cinema and German Expressionism. Rumble Fish features an experimental score by Stewart Copeland, drummer of the music group The Police, who used a Musync, a new device at the time.
Coppola utilized many new filmmaking techniques never before used in the production of a commercial motion picture, and the film was well received on the independent circuit. At the San Sebastián International Film Festival, it won the International Critics' Big Award. At its world premiere at the New York Film Festival however, there were several walkouts and at the end of the screening, boos and catcalls. Former head of production at Paramount Pictures Michael Daly remembers legendary producer Robert Evans' reaction to Coppola's film, "Evans went to see Rumble Fish, and he remembers being shaken by how far Coppola had strayed from Hollywood. Evans says, 'I was scared. I couldn't understand any of it.'
And that's why i like the movie so much...it's not a typical Hollywood uniformity blockbuster type of flick...just like the next one i can recommend to watch if you're into more plot orientated movies.
The second flick (the 2 pics showing the main cast) is a 2013 black comedy thriller called "Cheap Thrills" directed by E. L. Katz in his directorial debut. Starring Pat Healy, Sara Paxton, Ethan Embry and David Koechner. The film follows two friends competing in a series of challenges worth different amounts of money given by a rich couple. It was a box-office bomb, grossing $59,424 against a $100,000 budget which i really can't understand...i like those type of movies a lot...more plot less unneccessary action. 👍 3 replies
