RE: CineTV Contest: Movies that Impacted my Childhood
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
You chose two of the movies that impacted me the most when I was a child. The towering inferno is partly to blame for not liking tall buildings... how bad it is, but it's an impressive movie and the special effects for its time were not bad at all. It was also in it where I discovered Paul Newman's eyes, although that's another story, hahaha.
I haven't seen the Earthquake one and I'm signing it up. I am surprised to know that already at that time that of feeling in the cinema what was projected on the screen was applied. I thought it was a newer effect, or maybe then here in Spain we were further behind. I love Charlton Heston in his classics like Ben-Hur or The Ten Semandments. However, I haven't seen his "more recent" films.
As for the last one, I can add a little. Jaws is a modern classic and Steven Spielberg is a genius. The masterpieces are distinguished because they continue to excite or tremble every time you see them, as is the case with this film.
If someone doesn't know what to do this weekend, you've given them three good reasons to entertain and enjoy. Thank you!

Oh, thanks for the selection! ☺️🙏
Your comment, my dear @palomap3, stole a smile from me 😊. First, because you saw the movie “Hell in the Tower”. I imagined you as a girl from 2000 onwards 📅. Second, because of what you mentioned about Newman's eyes. 👀
“Quake” was not a great movie, but it did take some Oscars for its special effects 🏆.
As you rightly say, “Jaws” reminds us that in the sea, things are not always so pleasant because there are many dangers and mysteries. 🦈🌊
Good that you came to visit me, thank you. 🙏
I understand that you may have been misled by my movie reviews so that you thought of me as a girl from the 2000s. 🤣 The explanation is simple: that's when I started working and I was able to pay for movie tickets. 😅
Anyway, when these movies were released I wasn't even on a project yet, hehe. I'm from 78. Although I know for sure that I would not have gone to see them at the cinema, because if on television they scared me on the big screen they would still give me nightmares.
