Movies You've Walked Out Of! It's your turn...
Scott6373:
I walked out on two movies.
"Hannah and Her Sisters" Woody Allen is so tedious
"Bull Durham" I fell sound sleep during it, and woke up when the credits were rolling. This counts as walking out, because I did go to another place :)

Barb, this gave me a smile, as it reminded me of a scene in the 1981 film Polyester, written and directed by John Waters. There is a moment when Todd (played by Tab Hunter) takes Francine (played by Divine) on a date to an arthouse drive-in showing the "latest hits of Marguerite Duras"( :laugh:). In the lobby, copies of Cahiers du cinema are available for perusal, and the screened ad for refreshments features not dancing sodas and hot dogs, but mineral water and upscale delicacies similarly choreographed to a soothing voice-over extolling the "art of cinema".
What kind of cinematic wonderland was Baltimore circa 1981? ::)

One I didn't walk out of, because I never saw it in the theater, but sure turned off--I was trying to watch it on Turner Classics:
Rocky
That's right. Rocky. The original one.
Jesus H., I found it unwatchable. And I live in Philadelphia! :o

Unwatchable and unintelligible.

Absolutely!
(Now, when I get run out of Philadelphia on a rail for admitting that, can I come live you and Grady? :laugh: )
