Best Movie Couples (male/female) - Weatherford - 04-18-2005
Biggles Wrote:Call me an old fart (and alas, I'm probably on my way to that status, if not already there) but I think few, if any, of the modern couples are in the same league as those in the '30s, '40s and '50s classics. I will say that Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan were absolutely magical in "Sleepless in Seattle" and "You've Got Mail". I would love to see them link up again. Two great actors with wonderful chemistry on screen. Tracy and Hepburn? Maybe, given a few more movies together.
I dunno - I really thing Branagh & Thompson SIZZLE on screen - especially in Much Ado - Hanks & Ryan leave me a little flat - especially in comparison!
Unfortunately we'll never see Branagh & Thompson together again - they are divorced

The closest I've come to seeing one of his movies was a movie entitled Sylvester, about a horse named Sylvester Stallone.

I watched Wild at Heart last night and must put Nicolas Cage and Laura Dern on my top ten movie couples of all time. Spenser Tracy and Kate Hepburn, Bogey and Hepburn, Bogey and Bacall, Martin Sheen and Sissy Spacek, are others I would include (you can figure out the movies they starred in). Any others?

Cliffhanger??!?!? Are you serious? That was a shoddy piece of work. Only one actor of note, John Lithgow, and he only acted like he was pissed that he had to be in that movie. The woman that falls to her death at the beginning of the movie when Stallone "drops" her was lucky because she didn't have to be around for the rest of the movie.
Nighthawks was a good movie, I will give you that. But, Cliffhanger? At least Judge Dredd didn't take itself seriously.
