Since you mentioned doing classic films there is one (actually, there are a few) but one that is rarely talked about but is one of the most interesting film with some the most skilled performances you could hope to see. It's called Scent of a Woman and it stars Al Pacino and Chris O'Donald. You won't regret checking it out.

2022-06-05 02:32:44 +0000 UTCThis was my absolute favorite movie when I was a kid, and yes, because it was so very honest about what it feels like to be a kid. My friends and I--we were rural--watched it so much that we could play along. (I was the writer, so I got to be Gordie.) Ace is played by Kiefer Sutherland, who you might know from "The Lost Boys," "Flatliners," "A Few Good Men," or (more recently) the TV show "24" The novella is about 150 pages long, so it's actually about the perfect length for a movie (it's the same length as "Shawshank," roughly). Rob Reiner is an actor as well as a director, and he used method acting coaching with the kids, asking them to dig into their minds to find a memory they could access to get their characters. It's faithfulness is weird. It's got a few major changes--I won't mention them, since you want to read it--but it also follows much of it down to the letter. In a lot of ways, the movie feels to me like the final edit that an editor should have gotten out of King. (I believe there's some information on the things King took from his own life ended up in his nonfiction book, "On Writing"--a big recommendation for that book, by the way.) The book has a very philosophical bent about communication and writing and love and death. I can actually still do the first paragraph from memory, though I won't subject you to it, since I want to give you the paragraph you actually asked for instead. I had to look this one up and copy it; I remembered the gist, but not the words. This is the follow-up to the deer scene. You'll notice that the narration is taken directly at the beginning. "It was on the tip of my tongue to tell them about the deer, but I ended up not doing it. That was the one thing I kept to myself. I've never spoken or written of it until just now, today. And I have to tell you that it seems a lesser thing written down, damn near inconsequential. But for me, it was the best part of that trip, the cleanest part, and it was a moment I found myself returning to, almost helplessly, when there was trouble in my life [...] I would find my thoughts turning back to that morning, the scuffed suede of her ears, the white flash of her tail. But eight hundred million Red Chinese don't give a shit, right? The most important things are the hardest to say, because words diminish them. It's hard to make strangers care about the good things in your life."
