"It Doesn't Always Have to Be Six-guns, Boobs, and Explosions"
That was my comment, referring to my usual movie-watching habits, after we watched LITTLE MANHATTAN, a sweet, occasionally funny film about the budding romance between a couple of fifth-graders who live in New York City. This movie takes place in what I think of as sitcom Manhattan, where everything is incredibly clean and safe and charming. It's a pretty good film, although, lowbrow that I am, I wouldn't want a steady diet of movies like it, either. But that takes me back to my original comments about six-guns, etc. On the other hand, why the hell not?
Would that be A LITTLE ROMANCE? I don't think I've seen that one. The earliest Diane Lane film I remember seeing is STREETS OF FIRE, from the Eighties.

This reminds me of that movie Diane Lane and Olivier were in in the seventies. Thanks for reminding me.

ReplyDeleteWe saw this one a couple of years ago. Liked it a lot.
ReplyDeleteYes, A LITTLE ROMANCE. She was about fourteen in this one.
