I'm really surprised no one has selected (at least) one of the Zatoichi films yet. The character, and the films, was one of the first which came to mind.

Beat me to it on Zatoichi. Difficult to pick a favourite so I just went for the first one that came into my head...

FILMS WITH A BLIND CHARACTER I didn't want to include any of the Shintaro Katsu Zatoichi films because I have the boxset to watch and it's been years since I saw any of them; the only one I have seen recently is the Takeshi Kitano version, which I think is a terrific film.

My thanks to those who contributed a list of their favourite films with a prominent blind character, which is making me look forward to watching my Criterion Collection Zatoichi Blu-ray box set even more than I already was. A few weeks ago, you came up with your favourite films with mismatched couples in buddy cop movies. This week, I'd like you to do the opposite and name your favourite couples, the two people who are – romantic, platonic, professional, or in a paternal/maternal way – a perfect match. They may not seem that way at the beginning of the film, or even may not be together when the credits roll. However, for some of the film, the chemistry between them is tangible. CINEMATIC COUPLES |

CINEMATIC COUPLES Like last week, I didn't want to leave out some of my favourites, so I'm including a list of 20. I'm not sure why, but my list is dominated by screwball comedies.

Aside from Wolfen, Murder on the Orient Express and Millers Crossing i don't even remember Finney in the films he's listed in on IMDB. Replies to these topics are dwindling fast...what happened to Cult Labs style top 10's? |
