HAL ASHBY MOVIES - Cat Stevens

[Sufficit]

Hal Ashby was one of the greatest and, sadly, most underrated film makers of the 70's...the last "golden age" of American cinema. His body of work quite impressive.

love cat stevens song! great collection there thank u for sharing this with us!

[ShortFormCinema]

I've yet to see 'Second-Hand Hearts' and 'Solo Trans' and then I can say I've seen all of Hal's work.

Excellent tribute to a brilliant director.

[mymindourdream]

i love Ashby...the butler we can see at the beginning of your video is...he thought he can change the reality with the remote control.i saw this movie in Italy in the late70s...can someone tell me the original title...?? I think this movie the best i've ever seen....it's a brilliant metaphore about the hidden power of the t.v...prophetic,at least in italy.....

[billysscreeningroom2]

@mymindourdream The films title is "Being There" (dir. Ashby, 1979.)

[NuovoPiero]

Did you remake this, Rick ? I remember it so differently......

[WorleyClarence]

The scene at 2:46 is from which film ? 

[billysscreeningroom2]

@WorleyClarence "Bound for Glory" (1978.)

[WorleyClarence]

@billysscreeningroom2 Thanks =) I have it in Dvd , but i didn't see it yet .

[MayaKitajima2670]

Hal Asbhy was a genius! Every movie he made was unique and original. You can really feel the spirit and dreams of the 70's in his movies, he's definitely an icon of that period. Thanks for uploading, great work!

[billysscreeningroom2]

@MayaKitajima2670 Thank you VERY MUCH for your comment. It's very much appreciated.

No Landlord? Hard to track down, but one of his absolute best, and certainly worthy of being in here.

[jeff1969z]

This is a great tribute to Hal Ashby! His films were out of this world. Great directing, writing, producing, and quality scripts. My all-time favorite film of his is "Coming Home". Jon Voight did an outstanding performance in this movie. Thanks for sharing this wonderful video with us.

[billysscreeningroom2]

Thank you very much!

[justmusicandme]

Don't know why you re-posted or re-made this video, but at least this time I won't make the mistake of mentioning ....Cinderella Liberty. LOL! And Being There is still one of my favorite movies! Thanks, Rick!

[billysscreeningroom2]

Harold and Maude was one of the best comedies ever made and a great tribute to the musical genius of Cat Stevens.

[grandehillusion]

It's a beautiful tribute <3

I love the end when we see peter Sellers went away, walking on the water.

In french it's "Bienvenue mr Chance"

it's his latest film, if my memory serves me correctly.

Thanks for sharing <3  5*

[TheNEWfilmfanatic99]

excellent video. I love your song choices.

[80stimeagain]

This video does flow very good. What was wrong with the first version? lol. Well, thanks for share.

[ZABRISKIEPOINTER]

OK Rick, gotta say you were right this flows much much better then the first one!..I loved "I'll get Warren" then cut to Warren Beatty..lol perfect..and the ending shot was pure perfection..my only little teeny thing is I would have liked to see more Goldie from "Shampoo" lol..but you know me!..she is to me like Ann-Margret is to you!..but I anyway this ranks as one of your all-time bests!

[billysscreeningroom2]

@ZABRISKIEPOINTER Thanks, Craig, for your honest opinion which I always respect. Yeah, it's still a bit off, but I've improved upon my dreadfull first attempt, I think. Thanks for watching and lending an ear!

[ZABRISKIEPOINTER]

lol..it was never dreadful... I liked it the first time,,,I loved it this time!

[billysscreeningroom2]

Very kind of you to say. Thank you, Craig!!

[johnnywolfnyc]

Aces job on this Rick... Exceptional music choice!!! And the ending of your homage (and the last Scene of BEING THERE)... Heavenly if I may say so!! :)
