The Horsemen (1971)

Is this the most hilarious thing you’ve ever read?
This is Al Gore’s attempt at poetry. Does it explain why he flunked out of grad school in 1971?
One thin September soon
A floating continent disappears
In midnight sun
Vapors rise as
Fever settles on an acid sea
Neptune’s bones dissolve
Snow glides from the mountain
Ice fathers floods for a season
A hard rain comes quickly
Then dirt is parched
Kindling is placed in the forest
For the lightning’s celebration
Unknown creatures
Take their leave, unmourned
Horsemen ready their stirrups
Passion seeks heroes and friends
The bell of the city
On the hill is rung
The shepherd cries
The hour of choosing has arrived
Here are your tools
I would not call that poetry, more like he had some random thoughts when he couldnt sleep and wrote them down.

Taking Off (1971) (Blu-Ray)
$33.62 French only Blu-Ray/Region All pressing. When Milos Forman set out to make his first American movie, he moved into a house on Leroy Street for more than a year. The door was always open, and Forman spent most of his time talking to anyone who stopped by. Frustrated after producer Carlo Ponti rejected, of all things, an adaptation of Kafka's "Amerika", Forman instead made 1971's Taking Off. Even taking into account the ambitious biographical sweep of later projects like The People Vs. Larry Flynt and Man On The Moon, it remains his best film in and about America - an engaging, episodic, wonderfully fair-minded satire about runaway children and anxious adults... * Please note the artwork has printed 'Region B' but it has been tested and confirmed as Region All. Please also note the supplemental features on this Blu-ray disc are encoded in 1080/50i. Therefore, you must have a Region-Free player capable of converting 1080/50i to 1080/60i, or a native Region-B player and a TV set capable of displaying 1080/50i content, in order to view them in North America. |

Get Carter (1971)
$13.64 When Jack Carter comes to Newcastle to inquire about his brother's mysterious death, racketeers think they can threaten him, rough him up, shoo him away like a fly. Which shows they don't know jack about Carter. Double Academy Award winner Michael Caine plays the relentless title character in this gritty neo-noir (Sylvester Stallone stars in a 2000 remake). Caine's Carter is a sharp portrait of cold-blooded precision as he connects the dots of a cover-up that leads to a pornography ring (John Osborne, whose Look Back in Anger launched Britain's "Angry Young Man" era, plays the flesh peddler's ringleader). Revenge is sweet for Carter. But in the hard world of latter-day film noir, sweet is sure to turn suddenly, violently sour. 1971/color/112 min/R/widescreen. |

Hannie Caulder (1971)

Welch is Hannie, a woman sworn to vengeance after she's raped and widowed. At first, she has more heart than know-how, but once a bounty hunter (Robert Culp) arrives in town, he teaches her how to use a gun. Hannie straps on her .45 and sets out to put a few notches in its handle. Legendary villain Christopher Lee (Dracula) plays a sympathetic gunsmith who befriends Hannie. This one-of-a-kind western was directed by Burt Kennedy (The Train Robbers). |
