Default Re: becoming a filmie

There are movies that play well 'hot' and 'cold' (yep, I've been rereading some of Mason's stuff...), that is to say, they don't need any kind of build-up, they are good as they stand. Casablanca is about the perfect example of this, but you do have others like The Great Escape, Bridge on the River Kwai, Some Like It Hot, and suchlike.
