I couldn't move during this whole movie. My eyes were glued. The ending ripped my heart out. I literally sobbed. Its amazing how invested you can get into a character.

I've never seen ANY of these movies, Flower Child...but I will definitely look for "The Savages" and "Wendy and Lucy" at our library. It is hard not to want to see a movie that someone gives 100 out of 10 points!
I wonder how I'd react to Cool Hand Luke. Maybe a little sad, because I've always thought my dad looks a bit like Paul Newman. Handsome devil!
Say, your affection for these rustic men in movies makes me wonder if you ever read the novel called The Virginian?
The Virginian (novel) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. It was my mom's favorite romance book when she was younger (and so I read it, of course) and features this stoic kind of loner man who has a very steady and deep love for the woman in his life, though the main focus appears to be his own character development. I thought maybe you might like this book because you seem to like movies and songs with a strong, clear feeling to them, and men who are a mixture of strength and expressiveness. Also, it's an old book (1902) and you seem to appreciate history!
The latest movie I've seen is "Candleshoe" with Jodie Foster (1977):
She was one tough kid! The movie wasn't as scary and good as I remember it being back when I was a kid, but I still liked it.
