      You're right I hate you

      Titanic? Wheres the epic there? Chuck Heston isnt in it so it cant be one.

        I just watched this yesterday.

        It doesn't hold up as an epic or comedy anymore, I'm afraid.

          Yes, it's hard to classify any Comedy as an Epic. The definition would have to be tweaked.

          Maybe,
          It's a mad mad mad mad world. defined as an epic comedy.

            Kind Hearts and Coronets is a rather epic comedy...

It's funny, usually when I see a good movie and then read the book, I picture it little differently. But with Papillon, McQueens face was all over in my mind when I was reading it. Powerfull acting!
              I agree that the book is very good reading, but there are many reports saying you can classify under fiction .
              Certain things are true, but he took credit for much 'stuff', that happened or was done by others (fellow prisoners, etc...).

              A good book nonetheless...

                  Titanic... holy c**p! More like a disaster of epic proportions.

                  The "academy" should colectively be dragged onto the street and shot for giving it oscars (exept the special efects one...).
