Saw this film in early 80's on tv, Jack Warden as the crazed adventure loving judge, and the scene where he runs out of fuel in the helicopter has always stuck in my mind
My family points out to me HOW OLD this film is...well being a HUGE, AL PACINO fan, it remains fresh, funny, sadly (personal experience not far from the truth, great acting, a STORY, not 87 minutes of dribble. Great music, Dave Grusin... the choir from a jail? The GREAT, LEE STRASBERG as a grandfather we'd all benefit from and founder of The Actors Studio, etc. Characterization, editing, on and on I could go. Thanks NORMAN JEWISON for a movie that for me depicts the law profession relatively truthfully and shows how disporportionate is the ratio of black vs white incarceration- notice that viewers- LOVE YOU AL PACINO!!!!
Al Pacino is the Greatest Actor who ever lived. Robert DeNiro and Jack Nicholson are next. Daniel Day Lewis, Daniel Craig, Clive Owen, Ralph Fieness, Jeremy Irons and so much more have such great performances. I admire actors on stage and film.
Marlon Brando, Phillip Seymour Hoffman, Robert Duvall, George C. Scott. Christ, i didn’t even mention Clint Eastwood. Now if it was filmmakers, you can bet your ass Clint would be there without hesitation.
seems that what many of us think of the profession of LAW, is unfortunately true! GREAT film, always fresh, one of my "go-to" on one of those daze. Love Al Pacino, Norman Jewison the GREAT Lee Strasberg and RIP, Jack Albertson....THANK YOU FOR OUR MONEY'S WORTH...
Thanks for posting, I came, I watched, I asked, thanks, LOVE THIS MOVIE, NEARLY SPIT MY COFFEE ON IT, I WOULDNT EAT CHINESE EITHER, A MANIAC. A GREAT, FILM. I cry in the courtroom scene, ( years of abuse and I didnt have an Arthur...but this scene) Thanks..
Facts! I was lucky enough to fly in a 4 passenger helicopter that landed at our camp at Glamas dunes! My boss hit one of the rotors with his whip from his atc and pissed off the pilot so I got to go up in his place!! Oh anyway we had to wear headsets to talk to each other , even the person next to you ! This was around 1987 or 88!
Hello there, all beautiful people of UTube, I trust that you are all well. Herewith a short story of my life the last 20 years. I have already told you about the property that I have bought 20 years ago that was sold at least four times whilst I was living in the property and the property was registered in my name. I have all the evidence to proof this as well as history from the Deeds Office to confirm. To date I still cannot determine who actually committed all those crimes. Was it the Bank who gave instructions to the attorney, or the attorney who gave the bank bad advice, the Sherriff who didn't know any better, the Sherriff's Board who could not sort the problem with the sheriff out or the Constitutional Court, who was contacted by the Sheriff's Board to assist with the situation. This is all about fraud corruption and conspiracy. The court granted default judgement and the Sheriff was told by the attorney of the bank not to execute the warrant because I am not an attorney. According to the South African Constitution, I have a right to defend myself in any court of law. That means that I draw up my own documents etc. Tomorrow I shall continue with this story. It may take a few short episodes. It is info of 20 years that I want to tell in a few paragraphs. Tomorrow this time I shall tell the medical part of it - almost like a Britney Spears episode. Good night and sleep well. Alinda Nieuwoudt. Proudly South African. xxx
Sorry I forgot to say that the property was registered in my name and fully paid for. I have said this before - just in case you don't remember. Alinda Nieuwoudt. Proudly South African.
