Yes, that's why Bonnie and Clyde was so shocking at its' time, today it is maybe the Zeitgeist to make shootouts more realisticly.



Well, 120 Days of Sodom still shocked folks after 200 years ;)

"Untouchables" I love that film,very good :DL

Yes, indeed, good movie. However I meant the TV series from the 50's. I loved it, one of the reasons it was so great, is maybe the fact that it was made relative shortly after the real events happened (20 years).
For example, I saw 5 minutes of a movie about the Hindenburg 2 days ago - that was enough! The costumes were great, the decoration was good, but the actors talked and acted like today, they didn't behave like someone in 1937 would - that alone made the movie bad. Ok, the story line was also laughable, trying to make a mixture between the Titanic and Pearl Harbor movies is always a bad idea... :damn:

As am I. That's why we have opinions and taste.

"One man's meat is another man's poison."
-Old saying

"One man's theology is another man's belly laugh."
-Robert A. Heinlein

"One man's great film is another man's worst ever."
-Me, just now

And speaking of which, I also hated Untouchables. It was a good movie, but I'm a fan of the true story, and they made a hash of that.

Did you also not like the series? :cry: I watched it when I was younger, so I can't tell you how much it followed the real eventsand how much was fiction.

Maybe there was some because the movie's hero was someone who previously aided Al Qaeda terrorists...

I got about a third the way in and turned it off!

I was too young to know better. I hadn't read Ness's book yet. After the movie there was a new series. The pilot was very accurate. The show itself? Not so much.
