Favourite Movie From Each Year Of The 1960s

I like the one where he sings a bit and he punches someone.

Kid Galahad and Broken Arrow are classics.

The musicals ones were good to take a girlfriend and sit in the back row.

In other words you took a girl to an Elvis movie, to not watch the movie. l get it.

And the one where that patriarchal figure thinks he’s a dumb hick but by the end Elvis wins his approval.
That’s a good one, too.

You could make that one even better by having Elvis and the Boss’s daughter fall in love!

I have an inkling that you don’t mind an Action/Westen movie every so often.

What gave it away? :wink:

I had to read this screenplay for a class at uni, I was blown away by the dialogue. Great choice.

You made sense of Last Year at Marienbad?

Well done!

I thought it was turgid, pretentious nonsense.
