You've almost got it. There is a difference between Fleming and her counterpart in Elf that shouldn't be too difficult to figure out.Mister Tee wrote:
If Renee Fleming is the answer, I have no idea what the question is.
Which is to say, the working theory I'd developed for why you and FilmFan think Elf doesn't qualify would not fit with Renee Fleming.

And I think it's time for Uri to swoop in and say exactly what he was driving at.
It's 7 hours ahead in Israel. I suspect that Uri is fast asleep.
Durmot Mulroney in My Best Friend's Wedding. No one in Moulin Rouge!The Original BJ wrote:Huh. I could see a more specific criterion that would include Moulin Rouge and White Christmas, but not the others I listed. (And Elf wouldn't fit using that criterion as well.)Big Magilla wrote:If I've got it right, yes on My Best Friend's Wedding and White Christmas, no on Moulin Rouge! and Distant Voices, Still Lives and for exactly the same reason (ponder that!)
Something you pointed out to me regarding something in the film that should be revealed when Uri responds. If not, I'll be happy to spell it out.OscarGuy wrote:Since my name was brought into this for reasons I don't quite understand...

The Shape of Water fits for a reason that is not evident on IMDb. as was pointed out to me by Wesley on an issue with an OFTA submission.Mister Tee wrote:OK, I've done a ton of Googling, and:
1) BJ, I don't see how most of yours qualify, either for my criteria or what Magilla and FilmFan seem to be thinking. But maybe there are things I don't know that you could explain.
2) Magilla/FilmFan, I think I've figured what you're going for, but, if I'm right about that, either Shape of Water or Trains, Planes and Automobiles wouldn't fit.

Then probably there's something more specific in the criteria I'm missing.Mister Tee wrote:1) BJ, I don't see how most of yours qualify, either for my criteria or what Magilla and FilmFan seem to be thinking. But maybe there are things I don't know that you could explain.
