4. Oh, that's a great old movie
It's a wonderful, wonderful movie.

But I loved Ruth Gordon in everything she did.

It's a great old movie.

Have you seen it? What did you think?

18. Oh yeah, saw this one way back in the wayback.
It was very much of its time, so no doubt anyone seeing it for the first time today will note the dated feel.

But how many other black comedies about life and death could be So Life-Affirming?

32. First Time I Ever Heard The Term 'Cult Movie' Was With H&M !!!
It was a great movie, but way weird for its time.

People kept it going, cause as I recall, it got panned in the reviews.

Was a midnight Movie classic.

I give it 4 DU-ups: :bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce:
