One of my all-time favourite films, "Jules et Jim". Extraordinary emotional range, both the film and Moreau's performance in it. Her stunning looks help, of course. Yes, I see the Jules actor died young years ago, but the Jim actor is still going. Here's the trailer: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthStandUpperTier Posted 8 August 2017 Share Posted 8 August 2017 Glen Campbell aged 81.Spent many a car journey as a kid with my Dad with him playing the Best of Glen Campbell. Pretended it was uncool, but I secretly really liked it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pSinatra Posted 8 August 2017 Share Posted 8 August 2017 I knew he was in the final stages of alzheimers, but still upsetting to hear he's passed away. I grew up listening to Glen Campbell - trips to Skeggy with the grandparents. A great voice & loved him in True Grit too. Sad news 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parafox Posted 8 August 2017 Share Posted 8 August 2017 (edited) 1 hour ago, Facecloth said: and guitar pickingGlen Campbell aged 81. For me he was America in song. Rhinestone Cowboy, Wichita Lineman, they embodied the loneliness of America's Midwest. The emptiness and loneliness of that vast area was endemic in his songs. But then there was joy in his work as well. He did covers of Greenday among others For those that appreciate lyrics and guitar picking check out "Gentle on My Mind" He might be decried for being an old CW nonentity but he was absolutely the epitome of American country. Maybe more so than Johnny Cash Edited 8 August 2017 by Parafox 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
