The Best Film Ever, by angel41 on May 18, 2008 18:06:11 GMT 1, These are the best quotes from withnail and i. www.withnail-links.com/quotes-withnail.htmMy personal favourite is "Jeff wode is feeling better and is ready to start tossing his orb about. Look at him look at Jeff wode, his head must weigh 50 pounds on its own. Imagine the size of his balls, imagine getting into a fight! with the f**ker!
Ha ha! Nice one. Yes forgot that one. One of the best lines in the film. There are so many though it's easy to forget a lot of them.
How about when 'I's in the bog and he reads the grafiiti "I f*ck arses" and then he says in his head "I f*ck arses? Who f*cks arses, maybe he f*cks arses. We're in terrible danger!"
The list is endless.

ok mike, this wont sound as the smartest thing ever, but the thing i've liked the most about that movie is the slang and how they speak english. i looooved it.
then, the movie itself was really interesting to me as a portrait of some kind of england i had a foggy (does this word make sens? hope you'll understand what i mean) idea of. it jsut gave me more images of it.
plus the soundtrack is cool and the kids act really good imo.
didnt you enjoy that movie?
and please, dont tell me you're one of those on the 21 grams side, otherwise, guys we have a duel!
this forum is too small for both of us

No mate, didn't enjoy this is england at all, I put a post on the first page of the thread about it  I understand you liking the areas you did, but as an actual film I think it's pretty poor. The soundtrack is pretty good, apart from some of the songs came after the time the film was set... but that's nothing majorly unusual.
I thought 21 grams was very good, not one of the best films ever, but it was very good all the same.
I'd like to add Control to my list ;D

Shane M is a legend and a visionary. Dead Mans Shoes pretty much blew my mind. The sound track was beautiful as im a massive Smog fan. TIE was a representation of Shanes damaged past. Its pretty much autobiographical. Its a balanced social commentary of what it was like to be around such idiots in the 80's. One of my best friends knew Shane well, before he started making film, but he was able to pull himself out of such negative elements within the midlands through writing. Its simply superbly written and directed. Meadows is one of our greats. Thomas Turgoose is amazing in the film for such a young kid. Its got SKA and punk and just expresses so perfectly the tumultuous times of skin head Britain. Its a great film as its honest, emotional never follows the pack and is utterly relevant. Cinema is about emotion and this film is mostly amazing. A diamond in the rough of utter shite that is often pumped out by the Hollywood Studios.

I agree it's well written and acted, but as a film it's massively lacking. No pacing or flow to it. It meanders aimlessly along then thinks lets tie things up now. Like I said before it could have been a 30 minute TV programme episode and not miss anything out.
I loved Dead Man's shoes and was looking forward to this more than most films. I was massively disappointed with it... it's average at best, to have it on a best films ever list is baffling

i found it REALLY REALLY poor. for how much i love joy division, me loving a movie about curtis &co should have been just the right consequence, but i found control sooo bad! slow and really not that interesting.
i mean, just try to see it as a movie and dont thing that it's about joy division, it would be the worst movie ever. then, when we all think that those are joydivision, we have to love it someway, but come on, that's a really boring one!

Look at him look at Jeff wode, his head must weigh 50 pounds on its own. Imagine the size of his balls, imagine getting into a fight! with the f**ker! Ha ha! Nice one. Yes forgot that one. One of the best lines in the film. There are so many though it's easy to forget a lot of them. How about when 'I's in the bog and he reads the grafiiti "I f*ck arses" and then he says in his head "I f*ck arses? Who f*cks arses, maybe he f*cks arses. We're in terrible danger!" The list is endless.
You're right it is endless, best script of any film I reckon - but I think my fav has to be "We've come on holiday by mistake".

Dead Mans Shoes has everything, humour raw emotion and an ending that is probably up there with Taxi Driver in its impact.
