Quentin Tarantino has said that Jaws is the best movie ever made. Not the best film ever made, but the best 'movie'. I think he is probably right.
Is there a difference between a film and a movie??

Quentin has made many movies, but yet to make a film.
 
RIP Roger Corman.


The Fall of the House of Usher, and The Little Shop of Horrors, were probably Roger Corman's most mainstream hits, but there's also this, from a juicy obituary:

"He also had an instinctive eye for talent, launching the careers of (do we even need to parade the names again?) Francis Ford Coppola, Peter Bogdanovich, Jack Nicholson, Martin Scorsese, Jonathan Demme, John Sayles, John Milius, Robert DeNiro, Joe Dante and on and on."

Tootsie is one of the all time best comedy films. After Some Like It Hot. What is it about men dressing as women that is just funny? Although in 2024 we seem to be very serious about such things. Tootsie would never get made today.
