MadMikeAU Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Bit of a coincidence: I just finished watching King of Kings. Haven't seen it in years. I was surprised to see Judas was played by Rip Torn. He was in Men in Black movies, Robocop 3, and most notably The Larry Sanders Show. He was piss funny in that as Larry's manager.

Mickey Juice Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 There are some awesome B&W films. There are some great noir and gothic thrillers out there. Filming in B&W can be an art in itself! Some of my favourites: The Haunting http://members.dodo.com.au/~mickeyjuice12/images/bw/08.jpg http://members.dodo.com.au/~mickeyjuice12/images/bw/06.jpg http://www.cinemorgue.com/fredaknorr.jpg The Third Man: http://alumni.imsa.edu/~mitch/titles/third_man1.jpg http://members.dodo.com.au/~mickeyjuice12/images/bw/3rd.jpg Psycho: http://members.dodo.com.au/~mickeyjuice12/images/bw/psycho1.jpg http://members.dodo.com.au/~mickeyjuice12/images/bw/psycho2.jpg http://members.dodo.com.au/~mickeyjuice12/images/bw/25.jpg I could go all day :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
