I’m trying find a movie I saw once but can’t remember the title. Story line:
The main character was a guy who only had and enjoyed old things. I think he was writing an encyclopedia of old things. Phonographs and stuff. He has a crush on a woman who maybe didn’t like him romantically. They took a trip to see a guy who lived in the desert. He died. I think our hero lost his girl in the end.
I know it’s vague but it’s all I can remember and that might not be 100% correct.
Anyone?
Giving this my one allotted bump. I can’t believe I didn’t even get a few guesses!
Crossing fingers…
A few more details might help:
B&W or color?
Any known actors?
Where and when was the story set?
Roughly when was it made?
When and where did you see it? (If in a theater, we know it wasn’t a TV movie.)
Based on the trailer for that movie, it has to be what the OP was asking about. Amazing job.
Damn, that’s nice work! :eek:
Blank Slate, had you seen the movie and recognized the description, or was that masterful googling? Either way, well done.
I just like searching for stuff sometimes. There were only five hits on imdb.com using the keywords “encyclopedia” and “friendship,” so that was an easy one.
Wow, great job. That’s it!!! I googled every combination of term I could think of and couldn’t get a hit. Bravo, Blank Slate, bravo. Thanks.
My pleasure. I’m wondering if you liked the film, though. I’m not familiar with the director or any of the cast, but that doesn’t mean anything.
I liked it but it wasn’t a great movie. It was quirky and different which I enjoy - not the typical Hollywood film. Then again I don’t remember too much about the particulars, just the mood and feel of it.
