"Waterworld seems to be hated...I like it
Foul Play....very few people will have seen it and yet I love it

Its a comedy about an attempt to kill the pope
Goldie Hawn
Cheevy Chase

The bridge on the River Kwai; this film bears no relation whatsoever to the horrors that POWs suffered at the hands of their Japanese captors, when building the Burma railway.
Those former prisoners who survived Japanese ill-treatment lambasted the nonsensical portrayal of Colonel Nicholson.
William Holden's role, designed to appeal to an American audience is pure fiction.
The film was actually made in Ceylon, and the bridge's resemblance of the Forth Rail Bridge is another David Lean fabrication.

Just because it wasn't 100% true doesn't mean it's a bad movie |

I used to think it was a good film, the storyline, cinematography, etc.
But when I found out the truth, decades after I had initially seen it, it left a sour taste that hasn't dissipated. |
