Media Center>Older Movies That Are Forgotten
Holladay 03:16 AM 03-08-2025
Hate to say, in another thread about Peaky Blinders, Blacklist thread, both of which are a great series, but I get tired after a few views. Thus I needed a break.

So I surfed Netflix and found "Awakenings". One of the better Robin Williams obscure films. Not a fan of Robert De Niro, but a good flick from 1992.

I watched it a long time ago. Glad I found it again. I like historical films and a feel good or bad story.

Recommended.

What other hidden gems are out there...

We all have our preferences. This is a generic, not niche classic ala Rocky Horror Picture Show nor Monty Pythons stuff nor Casablanca.

My friend and former co-worker and I used to quote this movie extensively during work.

First Born (1984) with Peter Weller and Terri Garr, haven't seen it in a while, really want to watch it.

Saw it in the theater when it came out. Excellent movie, although it's been a few years since I've rewatched it. Peter Weller is terrific in it.

That was on Netflix last year and I watched it. Yes. Peter Weller was really creepy and scary in it.

This is one of my favorite all-time movies.


It is gold from beginning to end. It might even beat out The Last Boy Scout and Tango and Cash for my favorite buddy cop movie ever.

The chemistry between Crystal and Hines is off the charts.

Tango and Cash is also a guilty favorite of mine. Kurt Russell in the courtroom is one of my all-time favorite scenes (and lines).

Pretty in Pink was probably the greatest chick flick ever next to Clueless.

Anyone remember Private School (1983) with Phoebe Cates and Betsy Russell? The classic fast times scene got all of the love but Private School had its moments too.

Great choices, but my vote for best chick flick ever is When Harry met Sally.

This was a tame scene compared to the others, there's a scene with Betsy Russell that will turn you into Randy Marsh.

I remember the song, but never saw the movie.
