No

I just checked it: This movie came out nine months before Wall Street, so it would allegedly be the first to feature a cell phone. However, Wall Street used it a bit more extensively. Also, I hear Magnum Force used a cell phone too. I have my doubts, but not worth it. But you're not going to remember that either way. What you will remember is the age of the non-title character being raised as an issue, by that character, repeatedly. Humorously. Punctuated with an expletive.

What do I mean by that? Well, for example (not this movie), Tom Hanks played the title character in The Man With One Red Shoe, but that wasn't his name. Arnold Schwarzenegger played The Running Man, but that wasn't his name. This movie is similar. The title refers to a specific character, but that character's name is not the title of the movie. This movie spawned three sequels.

Yes. Have at it

Ignore the cell phone trivia. Someone posted the same trivia item for Wall Street and this movie. Both released the same year. Not worth the quibble

I have to check dates. Pretty sure this one came out before either of those. By the way, the title character has a name. However, his name is not the title of the movie.

I was NOT expecting that.

Iris. Goo-Goo Dolls I knew Pass the Dutchie, but couldn't remember the artist

This action movie is believed to be the first major motion picture to feature a cell phone. The title character is eight years older than the actor who played him. His co-star was 10 years younger than the character he played. The age of the latter character is a famously repeated plot point.

That would have to be Paper Moon

You can have it, WW. I have a tendency to wander off...

The only one that did not feature Luthor?

The Monkees ?

Captains Courageous and Boys Town

Henry Fonda won his Oscar. He wore Spencer Tracy's hat in the movie. He lost in 1940 to Jimmy Stewart. Katherine Hepburn, who gave Tracy's hat to Fonda, won Best Actress. Jane Fonda lost the Best Supporting Actress Oscar but accepted the Best Actor award for her dad, who died a month or so after the ceremony. Chariots of Fire won Best Picture that year. You're up, George.

It would be interesting to me to see how this person uses scripture to differentiate between "American Christianity" and "Biblical Christianity," or if "Biblical Christianity" is his ideal (as opposed to some other form of the faith).

The Best Actor winner had only been nominated one other time, 41 years earlier. He lost to Jimmy Stewart. But for THIS movie, he wore a hat that once belonged to his co-star's husband, a two-time Best Actor Oscar winner (in back-to-back years).

This was the first movie in which a father and daughter in real life were each nominated for an Oscar (he for best actor, she for best supporting actress). He won, she didn't. He was sick when the Oscars were handed out, so she accepted on his behalf. He died shortly afterward. Yes, they played a father and daughter in the film. The actress who played his wife/her mother also won an Oscar for best actress. But the film did not win Best Picture. That award went to a movie now better known for its theme music than its story.

I second that, waysider. It's not going anywhere.

OMG. It was the most emotional scene from the film. That's like forgetting Run Forest Run That's like forgetting There's no place like home That's like forgetting yippee kay yay, mother...

It's a good thing I don't get charged rent for the room I occupy in some people's minds.
