The charactors in The Deer Hunter are quite normal guys ,no heroes,but they seem to be friends of mine,they seem to be living somewhere in this world .When they are happy,I am happy,when they are sad,I'll feel bad.They are someone with flesh and blood.This movie told you a miserable story,but still let you see the hope.It is not pessimistic. But in Apocalypse Now,every one seems to be sick,seems to be unreal.I don't like the officer and also don't like soldier who killed the officer.They seem to be picked up from the lunatic asylum.I can't forget the scene of the officer being cut in half. It's a movie showed no depth,after seeing the movie,nothing but the disgusted feelings remained.It's not only pessimistic,but also not persuasive.

So, he has to live the life of a real jerk who only has enemies and three or four wives. You can imagine the rest! It's a really original comedy full of action.

New Line's Brett Ratner-directed buddy picture marked an opening weekend record for the studio - topping the $25.4 million 1990 launch of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles." It also set a new record for any September opening, surpassing the $18.9 million debut of Paramount's "The First Wives Club" in 1996. Opening in a distant second was Universal's critically acclaimed domestic drama "One True Thing" with a studio-projected $6.6 million. Last weekend's box office champ, Miramax's "Rounders," meanwhile, lost 43% of its winnings to finish fourth with $4.8 million. -=> * <=- HOLLYWOOD (Variety) - While moviegoers nationwide lined up to see Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker in "Rush Hour," big-city arthouse audiences flocked to another film about the clash between two cops from diverse cultures. October Films' newly restored version of Orson Welles' "Touch of Evil," which broke house records at New York's Film Forum last week, continued to sell out shows in limited-release runs over the weekend. The film, which stars Charlton Heston as a Mexican narcotics investigator and Welles as a redneck police chief, grossed $178,000 in 12 theaters in eight markets. -=> * <=- NEW YORK (Variety) - Indie film queen Lili Taylor is in talks to play the lead role in a studio feature for the first time, a remake of "The Haunting of Hill House." DreamWorks is tentatively planning to release the film, based on the Shirley Jackson novel of the same name, at Christmas 1999. Jan De Bont ("Speed") will direct. The original 1963 feature, titled "The Haunting," was directed by Robert Wise and starred Julie Harris, Claire Bloom and Russ Tamblyn. The picture tells the story of a group of people who gather in an old house to determine whether a ghost is inside. -=> * <=- LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Steven Spielberg's film and music company, DreamWorks SKG, agreed with a land developer Monday on terms under which its headquarters and studio will be built on environmentally sensitive wetlands near Los Angeles. The agreement with developer Playa Capital Co. comes just three weeks after DreamWorks threatened to pull out of the development in a dispute with the land's owners. The site has been a focus of concern for several years among environmental protesters, who fear development could upset the ecological balance of an area that is home to many breeds of water birds and other wildlife. -=> * <=- Actors Liam Neeson and Natasha Richardson, who also happen to be husband and wife, deny the London Daily Telegraph story that they are headed for divorce court. The "Schindler's List" and "Cabaret" stars say they are consulting a lawyer, however -- not to dissolve their marriage, but to sue the Telegraph over the story. The two are currently in Florence, Italy, for a fashion event.

I'm curious about this movie, though it's not to my usual tastes, because it's directed by Carl Franklin, who did what I think is one of the best films of the '90s ... One False Move.
