Watch 'Nobody's Fool' 1994 if you get the chance. You don't and never did hear much about it, but it is just superb.

So all such reccos are always welcome:)

Another worthy recommendation imo is "Thunderbolt and Lightfoot" if you haven't already seen it. Made early 70's, has great story and terrific cast (Clint Eastwood, Geoff Bridges, George Kennedy). One of my all-time favourites :)

I like George Kennedy. His stand out role for me is still Captain Ed in Naked Gun. Given his penchant for big roles in massive films, he did the comic stuff perfectly. Flexible actor.

Yeah he was great, very versatile, and apparently all-round good guy, one of the most respected and best loved men in Hollywood I read somewhere.

yes, another top film.

One of my old man's pals was the spitting image of George Kennedy.

Hahaha... I'll try that one to close the deal!

Clearly though, you and I have very different tastes in women, as for me she has a gorgeous, model-like face (great skin and bone structure), and rather beautiful:)

I hate women who look 'hard', or as if they could drink more beer than me or potentially beat me at arm-wrestling. Petite, delicate and girly, with a cheeky penchant for naughtiness, always wins - you can keep yer shot-put throwers with more facial hair than Santa!:ner:

Thanks, yeah I've seen that one, but only once. Good film:)

Yeah, we don't have different tastes, it's just that my tastes extend to attractive women of all types, whereas your taste is very specific. I mean, that the woman needs to be brunette, well what can I say? My youngest brother (51) is similarly picky, even down to something as unimportant as hair colour, and he is still single. You can count yourself lucky that you weren't forced to broaden your tastes to avoid a similar fate :)

And I'm not keen on hairy birds either, but I'm certainly not intimidated by women who 'look hard' :ner: The 'girly' girls are too much like my daughters and their friends, and that's wrong in all kinds of ways. maybe if I was single...

But I might make an exception for Jenna Coleman ;)
