Leave your thoughts about I'll Never Forget What's'isname.
| Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)Ken HankeWinner mixes kitchen-sink realism with flights of fantasy and Bergman-esque dream sequences in a spectacularly successful manner. |
| User ReviewSam OQuite simply unmissable. Your life is not complete until you have seen the two greatest film actors of all time (Reed and Welles) face off against each other. |
| User ReviewJohn BWow! Another amazing, waaay ahead of its time film. And another piece of filmmaking with editing that, in some ways, surpasses today's mise-en-scene, Tarantino-esque, jump-cutting style. |
| User ReviewEric BQuint's camera ad makes this worth the watch. Plus Orson Welles eating barely flakes! |
| User ReviewStuart KEveryone always associates Michael Winner with making bad films. However, here is one exception to the rule. A dark satire on the alienation of modern life and the manipulation of advertising, it also has a very good cast as well, all giving good performances. It has advertising executive Andrew Quint (Oliver Reed) resigning from his job for advertising mogul Jonathan Lute (Orson Welles), Quint is bored with being a success, he wants to go in the opposite direction, back to the simple life, he also leaves his wife and child, and he leaves his three mistresses as well. So, he returns to a small magazine he used to work for before he became a success. He falls for the magazine's writer Georgina Elben (Carol White) and they begin a small romance, but nothing is simple, and Quint finds that he cannot escape his successful life so easily, especially when Jonathan Lute buys out the magazine. It is a little seen film, and it may be one of the few good films Winner has made, and it is an indictment of the manipulation of big business and how simpler lives than those with successful, busy lives can be even more difficult. It does have a very dark edge, although there is a black sense of humour in it's veins. Oh, and it allegedly the first film to have the 'f' word in it, uttered by Marianne Faithfull. |
| User ReviewNicolas MOliver Reed et Orson Welles. C'est deja pas mal. Le film en lui-meme est un peu date par moments et les themes plutot actuels abordes sont legerement forces. Il en reste une comedie dramatique avec un sacre pesant de cynisme. Pas indispensable, mais pas a jeter non plus. |
| User ReviewHis LAnother Swinging Sixties satire. Andrew Quint is a successful advertising agent juggling between his wife and his two mistresses until one day he decides that the high life is not for him and reacts by strolling through the streets of London with an axe and letting loss on his desk. Oliver Reed does a good job playing Andrew while an aging Orson Welles plays his annoying boss determined to keep him on just so he and his company can get an award. Carol White stars as Quint's new secretary and doomed mistress. Her acting is a bit ropey at times, but she does a pretty good job, whilst being easy on the eye in her fabulous sixties attire. I was excited by the fact that Marianne Faithfull plays one of Quint's mistresses till I found that she was only in three very short scenes. Still, in this film she did have the privilage of being the first person in a British film to say "fuck". Overall, not a bad film. I didn't find it as enjoyable as similar films but it was worth watching. |
