The Nun (2005), In a Lonely Place (1950), House on Haunted Hill (1959), Lenny (1974)

Monja, La (2005) aka "The Nun" - (English title) Dir. Luis De La Madrid
Free rental from Blockbuster had to be used on something. Watched it with my friends Jessica and Jackie
One of the most fantastic... no. Um, well, it was interesting. I need to watch it again. I think there may be a plot hole, but I need to see it again to be sure...Any takers?

In a Lonely Place (1950) Directed byNicholas Ray
Class required for my Film History class
This left me with an uneasy feeling. It was interesting and suspenseful and sad. Wow, this isn't really helping. I've just been out of the bloggage for a while.

House on Haunted Hill (1959) aka "The House on Haunted Hill" - USA (trailer title) Directed byWilliam Castle
in class screening for ab0ve-mentioned class. I was able to suspect the two characters and was kind of close. The evil people are revealed at some point. It's slightly disconcerting.

Lenny (1974) Directed byBob Fosse
for my Short Shelf Life Actresses class
I appreciated the mis-en-scene of this film present in the ECU's (extreme close-ups) and the documentary type fashion. Yay, Dustin Hoffman. The politics of comedy....

I'd watch "the nun" with you, but I'm in the wrong state. I've read the book it was based on so I would be able to help id that plot hole.

Sorry, I can't say I have any of the 80's classics in my library. What movies are you covering?
