Comment from a Costner fan
Here's a wonderful comment from Cristine, one of the Costner Posse members, about Dances being left off AFI's revisionist list:
To leave Dances With Wolves off any list meant to represent "the best in film" is purposeful and wrong.
I don't care what is thought about Kevin and his films that have and have not had critical/box office success...excluding DWW is excluding one of the most beautiful, unique and "raising of the bar" examples of film that has been put on screen in the past 50 years.
I don't know why he gets this kind of treatment - I don't know why - but he doesn't deserve it. DWW will always be my example of a movie that reminds me of WHY I love film, acting and storytelling.
Their loss.
Those who actually sat in the theatre and paid for their tickets know the impact of this film - and it runs much deeper than the pockets being lined at the AFI.
To redo the list? What? Suddenly the films listed before lost luster? What a shame and they will lose credibility because of it.
If I was in charge this would be my message at the beginning of the show..."The AFI has to acknowledge that 100 just isn't enough to cover the wide range of gorgeous films that deserve to be on our list...so we're going to pull the numbers away - except for our No1 (which I agree with, "Citizen Kane") and the rest...are just amazing films that raise the bar of film-making and will land on your own personal lists in what ever order you feel most comfortable with. These are great films...and filmmaking is better because of them."

You recognize the old saying with regards to counterfeited being the sincerest kind of support? Well, with regards to buying exceptionally developed, manufactured, as well as built Wristwatch watches, your imitators usually steer a lot more when it comes to unwanted wind compared to flattery. In many instances, bogus Rolexes usually are amateurish at very best and yes it doesn?t demand a jeweler's loupe to distinguish the countless defects. Imitation Rolexes typically aspect misspellings, extra position to the famed logo's leading, distinct or torn sides involved, bezel, in addition to necklace, and also come to feel extraordinarily mild for the timepiece apparently made out of 14K or maybe 18 karat yellow metal an additional precious metal.
Four. Etched Company logo to the Crystal -- Inside 2008, Watch started etching their particular custom logo precisely inside of the '6' to the crystal for many, but not all, in their pieces. This particular micro-etched coronet is difficult to be able to discern using the human eye alone and is ideal screened that has a loupe to get validity. Counterfeiters include due to the fact included this specific identifier recommended to their replications at the same time, though the imprinted is usually definitely not concentrated adequately inside of the '6' to the amazingly, along with the aspect and also proportions tend to be inaccurately rendered.

3. Resale Motion ( blank ) A geniune Rolex watch incorporates a second hand in which steps without problems in a very steady attract within the confront without the reluctance discernable from the human eye. An extremely near study of this specific mobility within magnifying will probably identify ten distinct 'ticks' each minute?azines advancement. Inside cheap replications ., the other hand is going to be reluctant then progress to another location 2nd a result of the simpleness of the internal device. All over again, nonetheless, high-end reproductions might repeat the continual motion wonderfully therefore this specific factor only is not an trusted means of figuring out legitimateness.
