Melvin and Howard

A movie for the dreamers. You can see Demme’s fingerprints all over PTA’s stuff especially from this movie.

I'll say it every time I see another Demme classic, but I will never get over seeing some dork say that Silence of the Lambs was the only great movie Jonathan Demme ever made. It's not even in his top 3, even if it is great.

Such a beautiful depiction of the American Dream and the exhaustion of it all. Demme is a master of showing the unseen folks that make it all work just to put food on the table. He's more in touch with Americana than just about anyone else.

Wow, this was a life changing one for me.

Jonathan Demme's Melvin And Howard is a film about life and the encounters we have along with it. A movie that feels too real to be called a "movie", somehow he can relate to these characters so much, that they turn into a good friend of ours, while watching this each character will feel like a close friend, you will cheer and cry with them.

This characters and performances felt so real and made with such a passion that it will make everyone watching so interested about what it's coming next in the narrative. The performances played by Paul Le Mat (Melvin) and Mary Steenburgen (which gave her the Oscar award- Lydna) were so powerful, I cared so much for each one of them.

Got to watch this due to Pta's top 10 list, I can really see the impact this had in his filmography.

Really recommend this to everybody, you will certainly get something out of this.
