The Man from Snowy River (1982)
Amazing coming of age movie for men and boys.
I agree with all those 10 star reviews. This i a great film. I recommend this film to all dads out there to watch with their sons. This is one of the few movies made for men that actually shows the qualities that make great men great. It is about perseverance when all is lost, about going after what you really believe in and most of all it is about having principles that go beyond what the other men are doing.
A must see for all boys coming out of childhood and about to reach adulthood.
Paternity (1981)
Simple movie with a cute but important message
I have seen many Burt Reynolds movies, especially his earlier ones like this one. When I was a child growing up I thought he was the coolest because I would always see him as Gator or Smokey, however, going back through his films lately I see he was more. In this movie he actually did a perfect Burt job by showing his coolness and macho man attitude but he also showed that men can be soft and caring. I guess that he and this film were trying to send a message out there to all his fans but many failed to see what he was saying. Beverly D'Angelo was as good as she always is in any film. Her beauty and underplayed sexiness is complimented by her wit and humor. Even more so than Sally Field (who did a great job on the Smokey films and others with Burt) Beverly showed that even as a strong, independent woman there always lies a little girl waiting for her Prince (or Princess, don't want to offend) Charming to come and carry her away to everlasting love in Neverland. If there was any weakness at all it came from the script not giving much depth or inside knowledge to the characters but I believe (as an actor myself) that the actors did a great job spreading the three E's of this film.
