  1. Yay, another one of your cool series :D I've only seen the remake of Italian Job, but lighthearted eh? I didn't expect that. But Last Tango in Paris is DEFINITELY steamy :D I think I heard somewhere that Brando's co-star wasn't exactly fond of him during filming?

    1. That is right...she wasn't fond of the director either. Appears she felt they were exploiting her. They kind of were ;-)

    2. @ruth: Yeah, the original version of The Italian Job is a crime comedy, unlike the remake. As far as the Last Tango situation goes, what Fisti said. :)

      @Fisti: Ha, you beat me to it. :)

    1. Haha. I almost did! It was the first word that popped in my head. :) Decided to go with something more generic for anyone who hasn't seen it.
