Anne's Plans
Last night Doodle and I watched Grumpy Old Men on TCM. Easily one of the greatest, most underrated comedies going. Ann-Margret is gorgeous, Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon are terrific together as always. Matthau to Lemmon: "Win the lottery yet, dickhead?" And Burgess Meredith as Lemmon's dad? Please--his outtakes alone at the end of the movie are reason enough to watch it. (Take 10: "Look's like Chuck's taking the skin boat to tuna town," made me choke). I identify with the characters so completely in Grumpy Old Men. Obviously I'm a man. An old grumpy one.

Run in the corridor!
I love Grumpy Old Men and also Grumpier Old Men. Classics.
Christian Bale in that movie was AWESOME. He's a great actor that's definitely underrated as well.
i caught grumpy old men for the first time ever last night. holy crap, it's a great movie! i was ready to be all above it, and harsh on it, but it's really funny.
walter matheau has the best crabby face ever.
I saw Grumpy Old Men at the theatre when it came out. I almost pissed myself during the outtakes.
