RE: ball of fire iz gud
Ball of Fire just works, as they say. Gary Cooper actually acts for a change, and the whole setup is kind of charming. No, Barbara Stanwyck really isn't all that pretty; she just makes you think she is. It's a good part.
Bronson occasionally made good movies. Breakheart Pass and The White Buffalo are pretty decent.
Keitel is great, imo. He plays a plausible villain in Cop Land. Tarantino exploited him effectively in Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction, which I love in spite of how popular it is to love it.
