Am I the only one who wants to see Black Snake Moan (or at least, the only one who will admit to wanting to see it)? I like almost everything Christina Ricci has done and I like stuff that makes you think. I like independent films and Ice Storm was really good, but somewhat depressing.

More on my list:

Casablanca
The Green Mile
Dead Man Walking
Dances With Wolves

I thought Scarface was just disgusting. Borrow it from someone if you must try it, and keep your kids away. It''s not worth the price of renting much less purchasing. If you can sit through it once, you''ll be so disgusted w/ those people that you never want to see it again. ''Way too evil & violent. And I''m liberal. That movie is totally too violent. That essobee lived far too long, IMO. OBSCENE.

I didn''t think Scarface was THAT bad/disgusting/obscene....

I was raised on PBS, no cable, no satellite, no HBO, and when I finally watched it at the tender age of 18 I wasn''t that turned off by the movie. I guess I just took it for face value, gratuitous violence/sex and all, and I thought it was a pretty good depiction of how things were (although quite romaticized/dramatized) in that given day and age in so. FL. I still watch it in bits and pieces when I catch it on t.v...I find it sexy and violent and entertaining for probably all the wrong reasons and then I get back to my life...kind of like reading a novel, I guess.
