yesterday i was wondering though a second hand video store and i noticed a video which i recall watching as a child called colours .
I think its a b/c movie made in 1988 with Robert Duvell and Sean Pean. It,s about two L.A police Officers trying to get order in the district with about 600 gangs in town.
To say its a B/C grade movie, i thought its was a decent film, alot of action.
it dosn't compare to GF1,GF2,Apocolypse Now.
But What do you Think are his best film.
I think he is a very unapreciated star,who doent get the offers he should.

You should check out THX 1138. George Lucas's first major film. It was originally made to be a 15 minute final project for a class of his. Then he went back and made a full length film after school. A new edition just came out, and in true Lucas fashion, it has all been redone. Give it a look.

And you liar, teller of tall tales: you trample all the Lord's commandments underfoot, you murder, steal, commit adultery, and afterward break into tears, beat your breast, take down your guitar and turn sin into a song. Shrewd devil, you know very well that God pardons singers no matter what they do, because he can simply die for a song.

As great and as versatile as Duvall is, "True Confessions" is his masterpiece. Every one of the performances in "True Confessions" is great, too: DeNiro, Charles Durning, Rose Gregorio, Ed Flanders, Ken McMillan, Cyril Cusack. It's probably the most underrated great movie of modern times.

I really liked his performance in Second Hand Lions I really liked the film I watched Open Range the other night and thought the gunfight scene was great but the rest of it was a bit slow moving for my taste.
