It has one of my favorite film soundtracks, the central romantic relationship is surprisingly strong, and the Ustinov-Laughton banter is fucking phenomenal.  I also like the Laughton-Olivier relationship is great because it is basically reality.

Nicole Kidman shows some nice nipple boners.  The various escorts and street prostitutes are hott.  Lee Lee Sobieski looked good in her underwear at 16.

Watching 'Henry VIII and His Six Wives' a film remake of a early 70s bbc series using the same cast.

Keith Michell as Henry, Donald Pleasence as Cromwell though yet to make an entrance.

But goodness me, wasn't Charlotte Rampling (Anne Boleyn) an extraordinary looking young women, I guess she must have just been out of her teens (19 or 20) when it was filmed.  :wub:


edit:
Oops got that a bit wrong, Michell and Pleasance were the only ones to recreate their tv roles. 
And apparently Rampling was 25 at the time.

She's one of the most beautiful women in cinematic history.  The Night Porter is basically trash, but holy hell is she sexy in it.

Lilo & Stitch. The funny parts work, but the serious parts seem even more ham-fisted than usual. My inner five-year-old recognizes that stuff's bullshit anyway.

Charlotte Rampling nudity (plus weed and/or alcohol) actually manage to make Zardoz watchable.

Good God what a cast :o :wub:

Edit: My half-Thai flatmate was saying that Thais hate the King and I because they think it's insulting to the monarchy. How they can be insulted when depicted by Yul Brenner is beyond me :o

Not sure I want to hear that, having just seen her in the final season of Dexter.  :lol:

I'm sure Zardoz was probably made 40 years ago or so though.

It's an 70s movie, she looks very hot in it. The film, however, is also batshit insane and famously features Sean Connery wearing revealing clothing you'll never be able to unsee.
