Wow. Perhaps you're fortunate to not have seen as many really bad movies as I have in my life. Or maybe there's just something about that movie that, er, rubs you the wrong way? ;)Pete Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00915253628212019131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6797119770533435005.post-45110316472515613472009-01-27T10:09:00.000-05:002009-01-27T10:09:00.000-05:00i've seen vertigo, and it's one of my three least ...i've seen <I>vertigo</I>, and it's one of my three least favorite movies of all time, along with <I>batman & robin</I> and <I>the graduate</I>. but <I>rope</I> wasn't bad. oh, and <I>the 39 steps</I>. i liked that one.Joonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07825085755390339668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6797119770533435005.post-78576182029139746222009-01-27T07:56:00.000-05:002009-01-27T07:56:00.000-05:00joon,Your ignorance of old movies galls me.
