I have always loved this movie. Makes me cry each and every time. I'm not sure, but I believe that in this movie, Jane Seymour is the most beautiful woman that has EVER lived.
I have it on DVD now -- the video tape wore down to its little tapey nubs.

You a psychopath? Naw. How many times have you seen Jack's Back?

Talking of Jack the Ripper films.... What maketh you all of 'From Hell'?
Personally it did little for me....

I enjoyed "From Hell" based on the performances, mostly Depp, of course, but I did enjoy Robbie Coltrane in it. Its a nice piece of entertainment, I thought. But, was never meant to be informative, I thought. The Masonic Conspiracy theory is just too bizarre to be believed.
My stepfather, who is a Mason watched that film and was a little perturbed to see some Masonic rituals being carried out almost verbatim on the screen. Which has pretty much made up my mind to never join them, but that's a personal choice...nothing against Masons, after all, most of my family are...Masons.

in ref to 'From Hell'
Yeah I guess it was more entertainment. For some reason I was really bugged by the cropping off from the neck up of 'our' main suspect. Felt a little like a TV movie. Also the London they portrayed wasn't evocative really, not that that is a huge issue, but old world London is pretty much still there enough to draw from.
Depp and Coltraine though are a great double act! I'd love to seem them paired up again in another film.

Saw it in the theatre! Great writing (Same guy did Star Trek 2 and 6) and I instantly fell in love with Ms. Steenburgen. Music was also great.
I'd own it if I didn't already have it permantly stored in my brain from multiple viewings.
No memory left Chrisisall

Hey! I saw Time After Time in theater too...as I recall our mother took me and my little brother to see it. I watched it a while ago for nostalgia's sake, and had forgotten just how good it really was...Plus, its got a Corey in it!!!
Feldman, that is...little Feldman!

Stuntman by day! - Chick flick watching softie by night
I guess I'm something of a 'nomoly that way. Films, or certain moments in certain films, can just break me down to tears. Enchanted April is just so charming, i have to wipe a little tear from the corner of my eye at the end. In Superman when he puts dead Lois down and cries is another one. When Mal said 'Everyone dies alone' or 'You all gonna be here when I wake up..?' are others.
And don't even get me started on when Ed Harris is trying to resussitate his wife in The Abyss!!!
If a flick can make me cry at some point, I know it's got (at least for that moment) real emotion to it, heart, a genuineness of spirit.
It's people like me keep Kleenex in buisness.
Also teared up when Max found Tinga dead Chrisisall

I don't own the movie, but I own the sound track--gorgeous and creepy music! I think the movie is great, but it is seriously effed up! Comedy? Please! Psychological Horror if anything! The man dies of grief like a lost tabby, shaking on that bed, alone in misery. I LOVE the way the movie explains the time travel--if you just wish really, REALLY hard, you can change the laws of physics! And when the man succeeds, it's about the creepiest "happy dream" I can imagine, you just know it's going to go very, very badly for our hero...
DON'T LOOK AT THE PENNY!!!!!
I love that I can find the movie hilarious and absurd and still care deeply for the people involved. Do I cry? Absolutely! I cry over the beginning credits just remembering last scene.
