Apparently I am not the first (nor will I be the last) to think of this as a theme on U.S. Tax Day (which I hope you know is TODAY). But here it goes anyway, my top films that deal with taxes, in varying forms (see what I did there):
The Untouchables (1987): Epic levels of violence only to draw to a close as a result of crappy mob bookkeeping.
The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938): Technicolor splendor.
The Young Philadelphians (1959): Nuttin’ wrong with showing Paul Newman some love … he’s a tax attorney in this one!
What are some of your favorites?
The marketing folks at the Cannes Film Festival are really trying to make me go broke. Last year, it was the lovely Marilyn Monroe poster (which I promptly purchased). For the 66th annual event, we have another part of Hollywood Royalty – this time in the form of my favorite cinematic lovebirds, Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward. Check out the poster below:
The Cannes Film Festival will take place from 15th-26th of May.
Hit the comments to let me know what you think about the poster (What’s not to LOVE ?)
