Runt : [sitting on Cross Haven beach] I want to walk into the sea and never come back. I want the tide to take me out of me and give me someone else. Maybe for a half hour or so. That would be good, wouldn't it, Pig?
Pig : Say again.
Runt : Just for a try, you know.
Pig : Jesus, Runt, that would be impossible. "A half hour or so" fuck.

Day 1. - The Wrath of God - 1972 (an OK film, entertaining at least, but not to be confused with Werner Herzog's Aguirre, The Wrath of God also from 1972 which is an outstanding film in its own right)
I just love Rita Hayworth.
This was her last film. She had early-onset Alzheimer's Disease which probably started in her early 40s. She was 54 when this was filmed. Though she did drink, often to cope with the disease it seems, everyone thought she was washed up and a drunk on the set, for this film and others. She could not remember her lines, even simple ones, and she had to work to earn money. They had to shoot this film almost line by line and they had to hold up cue cards and/or whisper lines to her, among other things.
Robert Mitchum got her in the movie as a favour. She would show up ready as a professional to work but no one understood what she was dealing with until she was diagnosed in her early 60s. She died from the disease at 68. Though Alzheimer's was discovered in 1906, society didn't really know if it could occur with people so young.
Her's is a sad, tragic tale. But her memory lives on!

Day 2 - Favourite Fantasy Movie
Day 3 - Favourite Action/Adventure Film
Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)
Day 4 - Favourite Horror/Suspense Film
Jaws (1975)
I almost went with The Excorcist. I can watch Jaws anytime it's on TV and just sit and enjoy it.
Day 5 - Favourite Dama Film
Dramas are my favourite films. The Pisces in me wants to feel. I almost put Schindler's List on here, but I'm sticking with Das Boot. I've always liked old submarine movies but I'm not sure how much I'd like to be in one for so long. The scene here conveys what it would be like especially just after getting shellacked by depth charges dropped from above.
Das Boot (1981)
Day 6 - Favourite Comedy Film
Almost picked the likes of Groundhog Day, The Big Lebowski, and Planes, Trains, and Automobiles...but going with...
Dumb and Dumber (1994)
