IMDB credits him for The Train, but I don't think he should count, because he only directed for one day and the script was completely re-written after he was fired.

The Miracle Worker: 3.5
Bonnie and Clyde: 9.0

I would very much like to see Mickey One. Oh, and I find The Miracle Worker to be borderline unwatchable; maybe I was in a foul mood, but it was simply vacillating between annoying and risible.

[B-side]

I think I watched Miracle Worker at school at some point.

I would very much like to see Mickey One.
If you're a fan of the French New Wave, then chances are you would love Mickey One. I've seen it described as "a Kafka version of The Lenny Bruce story" and that description isn't far off the mark. The black and white cinematography by Ghislain Cloquet (he shot this right before he did Au Hasard Balthazar) is exceptional. And, if you're a jazz fan, the improv soundtrack by Stan Getz and Eddie Sauter is bliss. Overall, it's a terrific film and highly recommended.

[B-side]

I think I still have that DVD you burned for me ages ago, Russ.:lol:

Wanna see Night Moves and The Chase quite a bit. Haven't seen B&C since I was 16 so maybe it's not fair to rate it, but I distinctly remember an overwhelming feeling of 'that's it?' by the end. Except re: Faye Dunaway though, jesus.

Bonnie and Clyde - 5.5

Bonnie and Clyde - 10
Little Big Man - 1
Night Moves - 8

[NickGlass]

Except re: Faye Dunaway though, jesus.

I love the look/performance, too--particularly how she doesn't even try to mask her disgust for the Estelle Parsons character.

I have only seen Little Bigman and Bonnie and Clyde, so my votes really didn't matter in the scheme of things.

I would very much like to see Mickey One.
