The Best and Worst Films of 1991
71What a great year for movies!
Hannibal Lector or Bob Wiley? Who would you rather by stalked by? The Doors or JFK? Oliver Stone's most prolific year no doubt! Drop Dead Fred and L.A. Story are not nearly as bad their reputation suggests. Barton Fink and Naked Lunch and Dead Again. That's a lot of mind-f***k going on right there. Frankie & Johnny for Comedy or Thelma Louise for Adventure? Madonna does her best acting in a movie...a documentary. Even the sucky movies were guilty pleasures that were fun to watch, like the Christina Applegate vehicle "Don't Tell Mom The Babysitter's Dead" or "The Hard Way" with Michael J. Fox and James Woods.
BEST LINE OF THE YEAR: "Rock-a-Bye Baby!" from "New Jack City"
BEST MUSICAL OF THE YEAR: Irish Soul from "The Commitments"
BEST MOVIE YOU DIDN'T SEE: British Comedy - "The Watch, The Favour and the Very Big Fish" with Bob Hoskins,and Jeff Goldblum. The Voice-Over Porno audition with Natasha Richardson alone will have you crying and holding your stomach. After you love it, move on to "The Tall Guy" with Jeff Goldblum, Emma Thompson & Rowan Atkinson. Enjoy!

Too many good ones to pick which I liked best. I have some of these in my collection. I must've spent an awful lot of time in front of the screen that year. Thanks for the memories.
