You will never look at a cornfield or a ball point pen the same way ever again.

A great reason to hate Sharon Stone... her performance in that movie (though it may not reflect her real-life persona) made me despise that c*nt. Followed closely by James Woods.
Great movie. One of many Robert DeNiro greats. I also liked Don Rickles in that. |

Yeah, Stone was repulsive and repellant in that role, but I guess that's an actor's job. She more than makes up for it, though, in "The Quick and the Dead" -- the only film I've ever really liked her in.

Sharon Stone's acting talent began and ended when she opened her legs on screen.

Casino great movie. I know 3 people in that movie. Jimmy's kid is my friends son. He plays a pit boss in it too.
I used to work in the casinos here in NV and well it is kinda funny how true and false it was at times. James |

iirc, it was based on a real life story.
One of my all time movie favorites. |

It was. The real casino was the stardust. deniro's charactor was Lefty Rosenthal. (whose daughter I swam with (and she was a pretty good swimmer, too)) My dad worked at the stardust during the entire 70s. I knew all those stories before the movie ever came out. |

One thing, and the only thing, I don't like about this movie, is that Martin Scorsese basically cloned "Goodfella", with same voice-over narrative, same set of actors acting almost the same way, same story arc, even the same usage of period music. I had a feeling that he wasn't even trying to make a different movie.

... Unfortunately, more often than not, a wealth older guy will get sucked into thinking he needs a woman in his life like the mistake the Sam Rothstein made in Casino. Then once she sets her hooks, he spends a good deal of the remainder of his life either bleeding to death are trying to conceive how best to dispose of the body and not get caught. Sad but true. |

... Fortunately no, but I've seen it happen to middle-aging guys with nice incomes. I'm rather pragmatic when it comes to women - they have to bring something to the party other than pie. |
