Post by: Mysterious F. on September 14, 2008, 11:17:39 AM
Close, but no cigar. It is also a black and white film from the 1940's, though.

Title: Re: Who can guess what movie my avatar and signature are from?
Post by: Hi no Seijin on September 14, 2008, 03:26:40 PM
Probably.  I know next to nothing about old movies.

Post by: Mysterious F. on September 14, 2008, 03:30:56 PM
...This seems to be going no where. I'll give you another hint.

Citizen Kane

An actor in that movie stared in this one.

ROASBUD UP IN THAT MOFO

Post by: Mysterious F. on September 17, 2008, 02:10:36 PM
Fine, since none of you know it, I'll tell you what it is now.

It's The Third Man, a 1949 British film. The actor in my avatar, by the way, is Orson Welles.
Title: Re: Who can guess what movie my avatar and signature are from?
Post by: Keaton on September 17, 2008, 02:11:33 PM
You smell funny.

I strongly dislike Orson Welles for his portrayal of the guy's mistress in Kane, it was a dirty trick and he knew it.

THE WAY HE MADE THE WOMAN OUT TO BE IN THE MOVIE
Title: Re: Who can guess what movie my avatar and signature are from?
Post by: darkphantomime on September 17, 2008, 02:30:38 PM
So what exactly did he do?
Title: Re: Who can guess what movie my avatar and signature are from?
Post by: Mysterious F. on September 17, 2008, 03:54:28 PM
Just for those who don't know, Orson Welles' 1941 film (he is both a director and an actor) Citizen Kane is considered to be one of the most influential films of all time. It is also the most critically beloved film ever made, having been voted the greatest film of all time on numerous occasions.

Some of his other films, such as Touch of Evil and The Magnificent Ambersons, are also highly acclaimed.

Post by: darkphantomime on September 17, 2008, 04:09:55 PM
You know, I think the phrase 'greatest ever' is a bit overused. No one's denying it's a classic movie, but I think I've seen a few others take the top number a few times. But eh, whatever. "Greatest ever" is always so subjective, that listing a movie as THE greatest becomes problematic at best.

Since when did I call it the greatest ever? I said it was the most critically beloved film ever made, JQ.

Wow, another time where I was right and JQ was wrong! That makes two times! I am happy!  :D

lolwut?

And besides, I didn't say that YOU said it was the greatest movie, I simply stated that 'greatest ever' is an overused term, applicable to many films, so 'greatest ever' becomes... not related to just one. Making THE greatest hard to define.

I don't know why you take everything I say as something against you.

Sorry, the way you said it made it look like you were pointing a finger towards me.

Well, the total is back down to one...  :(

No no, it's not really a competition, but more along the lines of a running gag.

I've changed it again, but not for the purposes of this topic. This time it's Robert Mitchum as Harry Powell from The Night of the Hunter.
