officer and a gentleman where he carries out of work and has to be Richard Gere or Mark Harmon out of NCSI

Hold the fecking phone Mark Harmon is mine, posted ages ago on an other thread, so in the fair game of “bagsy” He’s mine – BACK OFF.

If you want i’ll help you get Richard Gere though.

ahem..have got what some would consider posh taste..and what others would consider snobby and boring taste..

so

I would love to play opposite Giulietta Masina in La Strada. Just to look at her face, the way it gawks and stares and twists and hurts. The simplest face in the world, the moon face of a total idiot, or a saint. She was haunted by the question, why do stones exist, and when she finds the answer from the clown (Richard Basehart), she decides not to leave the man who’s beating the crap out of her. When the wife-beater jealously kills Basehart, she withdraws from life itself and the brute guiltily leaves her alone on the road, to fend for herself.

Hmm..now does this mean I am playing the wife-beater (Anthony Quinn)? He is so unlikeable, such a brute.

But the final scene, when he learns from a stranger of Giuletta’s death, is truly heartbreaking.

Yeah, play opposite Giuletta masina.

Ah! Federico Fellini film not seen it sceptical guy but great choice !

Im a Daniel Day-Lewis fan so would have to be opposite him in any of following films

A room with a view

The last of the Mohicans

The unbearable lightness of being ! :D

Who said it was unpopular? Nobody’s mentioned a lot of movies they like.

So which cowboy would you have wanted to play, Lancsman, and why?
