Aye, me too. Never been much of a Costner fan.

And me.
Val Kilmer stole the movie for me.

I didn't realise until last year that Sherman McMasters, the Cowboy that joined Earp on his revenge ride was played by Michael Rooker from The Walking Dead

Shattered Glass is a brilliant film, based on the true story of a reporter (Stephen Glass) for the New Republic magazine (in-flight magazine for Air Force One) who made up entire stories that he passed off as fact. He was so plausible, but in the end almost brought the magazine to its knees. It is a tremendous film with outstanding performances...so gripping and tense!

Veronica Guerin

Maybe it's cos I saw it on my honeymoon but I've always liked Oliver Stone's Doors biopic. Also think The Aviator was a very good film too. Bit obvious but hard to ignore Lawrence of Arabia cos it's so epic and beautiful.

Yes, I agree, good film, very disturbing when Veronica goes to the villain's house & he beats her up & calls her that horrible word over & over again & drags her in to her car...:(

Sean Harris is excellent in those last two.

I really liked that trilogy. It has a couple of issues but overall, it was great.

Hey there!
