My Movie Poster Collection: M

Remember that you can always click on the images themselves to see them (hopefully) larger:MAGIC (1978). Folded, GWow, that freaking poem! And the image of Fats looking at us with his dead eyes. When I choose to hang this masterful one-sheet up on my walls, I find I have difficulty sleeping. Along with Oh! What A Lovely War, the strangest of all Richard Attenbourough works. MAGNOLIA (1999).

Film #26: My Bodyguard

Dave Grusin's jazzy, string-flecked score hits me first every time I see My Bodyguard. It takes me back to 1980 instantly and I am happy for it. It's bouncy, joyful, mopey, and erudite. It exemplifies Chicago--where this movie was filmed--all in a few bars. In fact, the only things that remind me of Chicago more than My Bodyguard are John Hughes movies, The Bob Newhart Show, and...Chicago.
