Films that didn't quite work, but were interesting and unusual, albeit forgettable.

The Illustrated Man - Rod Steiger and Clare Bloom do Ray Bradbury, several times.

Quintet - Paul Newman, weird Robert Altman post-apocalyptic ice romp.

Zacharia - The first electric western. Very strange.

Islands in the Stream - The book Hemingway didn't want published. Now I know why.

Zabriskie Point - So what happened there? Antonioni's folly?

Sympathy for the Devil - No wonder the song was so good, it took the Stones 6 months to record it.

The Trip - Peter Fonda and Jack Nicholson on acid, too bad I wasn't.

Wag the Dog - Great idea, great cast, lousy movie. What went wrong?

Krippendorf's Tribe - Great idea, great cast, lousy movie. Everything went wrong.

A Boy and His Dog - The only Harlan Ellison project I ever cared for. Just barely.

Pirates of the Caribbean I - I like Depp, I like boats, I like pirates, I hated this movie.

Eyes Wide Shut - What was Stanley thinking?

The Unforgiven - Your basic Eastwood horse opera; what did everyone see in this movie?
