Nothing Personal (1980)
INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS (1978) | “I love you.”
If I watch this again, I am also going to cry. ughhhhh
THE MAN ON THE TRAIN (2011) | Donald Sutherland and Larry Mullen Jr.
“Do you know why women look away when you pass them on the street? Because they’re dazzled. Why wouldn’t they fall for you? Don’t you know how extraordinary you are? Look at yourself. There’s so much to see. The older we get, the more precious we are.”
If I watch this movie again, I'm gonna sob my eyes out, I just know it.
Said a prayer for Donald and his family. Hoping he had a peaceful departure and is off safely to his next destination, free of worries. Admittedly, something feels a little empty about the world tonight. I haven't been active on this blog for a while, but when I was, man, my infatuation was off the charts. I was not only wowed by his skill and talent, but just felt a comfort in his presence, endearment towards him as a person. I joked he had dad energy, God energy, even Santa Claus energy hahaha
Maybe he's watching over us now... at least until he gets bored.
I have commiserated with my friend who would watch all his films with me. Perhaps more are on the horizon.
He had us smile so damn hard in A Man, A Woman, and a Bank -- truly such a good 70s romcom that people don't often know him for. His chemistry with Brooke Adams in Invasion of the Body Snatchers definitely carried over to here.
Eye of the Needle! How does he make villains so human?! He played an outright Nazi and I still didn't want him to get hurt - explain that!
The Man on the Train -- a strange art film, almost, but his character tugged hard on my heart strings and summoned my tears. I wanted to be that man's friend.
The Leisure Seeker -- holy crap. That one will really make you cry. His character was so believably touched by Alzheimer's, it was difficult to watch but so good, worth suffering through.
Start the Revolution Without Me -- he KNEW comedy. His face alone was such a hoot! That's one thing I was crazy about was his magnificently epic face that could pout and sneer and gape.
The list can go on and on, he has done so much with his time on this Earth. I didn't know him personally, almost all of us haven't, but we know this is what mattered to him, what he wanted to be known by, is his dedication to performance, to art, to storytelling. I've heard such nice things about him on set, the kindness he showed to his peers. I hope all of it's true. Whether it is or isn't, he has had a hugely positive effect on the world through his work. We're lucky to have had him for so long.
Goodnight, Donald.
Who else saw Mr. Harrigan's Phone?
I liked it, but pretty much once Don was gone I thought the writing went downhill and it didn't seem to deliver what was promised in the trailer. There was potential that wasn't explored. But yeah Don was his lovely cute self. I don't take for granted these last years we'll get with him .
Happy birthday, dearest Donalddddd! 💙
thunder rolls Mr. Bennet: that sounds like a scheme brewing
A MAN, A WOMAN, AND A BANK (1979) | Donald Sutherland and Brooke Adams
I'm vaguely interested
Aaaanimal house, house, HOUSE
Nobody ever went to class~
Then we saw Donald Sutherland's ass~~! 🎵
Last night I went down the rabbit hole of looking up if and why some people don't like Donald, and it seems that every account had a very personal saltiness about it, as though they were poised to hate him before they knew him and then heard one side of an unpleasant interaction that they embraced with no scrutiny. It was basically like the one star reviews written in all caps... hyperbolic, biased, not to be taken without a grain (perhaps a whole cup) of salt. Saltiness to be taken saltily, I suppose. ffff
Then after looking that up, I moved on to the general "working with Donald Sutherland ", and I came upon page after page of director, actors, artists etc., young and old, who were thrilled to work with him and had very sweet memories, which accounted for his kindness and humor. I suppose you may call those the glowing, five star reviews.
What is to be trusted? The middle ground, as always. Every person is flawed, every person's flaws may sometimes be highlighted, and every flaw is a particular evil to someone out there. A star as big as Donald cannot be loved or even liked by everybody, and in truth I've not read of him doing anything particularly saintly or entrepreneurial, so I'm careful to understand where an infatuation with him would come from.
But!... I have to mention that for someone whose career spans so many decades, he sure has an impressive lack of scandals, and a resounding majority who praise him on a personal, not just professional, level.
Knightley, who cites Sutherland's 1973 movie Don't Look Now as one of her favourites, also stunned her parents when they learned their daughter would be working with the Canadian actor. The 20-year-old says: "Well one of my favourite films is Don't Look Now so working with him was totally terrifying. "My mum and dad were like, 'He's the legend!' "But we had three weeks of rehearsal before we started shooting and he just clicked with everybody. And I suspect Donald really liked being surrounded by six women.
