With Steven Pressfield's inspirational novel to guide them, director Robert Redford and screenwriter Jeremy Leven have tilled fertile soil with a graceful touch.

Liar Liar

Recovering from the box-office disappointment of The Cable Guy, Jim Carrey gave his fans what they wanted in this good-natured and frequently hilarious 1997 comedy.

Lawrence Of Arabia

The Last Picture Show

Like Easy Rider, Bonnie and Clyde, The Wild Bunch, and The Graduate, The Last Picture Show is one of the signature films of the "New Hollywood" that emerged in the late 1960s and early '70s. Based on the novel by Larry McMurtry and lovingly directed by Peter Bogdanovich (who cowrote the script with McMurtry), this 1971 drama has been interpreted as an affectionate tribute to classic Hollywood filmmaking and the great directors (such as John Ford) that Bogdanovich so deeply admired.

L.A. Story

Steve Martin is Harris Telemacher, a wacky television weatherman who thinks his life is perfect except for an erratic relationship with a style-conscious girlfriend. One bright and smoggy L.A. day, an electronic freeway sign changes his life when its advice leads him into a frivolous romance with a young and beautiful blond and, ultimately, to true love with the woman of his dreams. Set against the magic of Los Angeles, it's, like, the most hilariously romantic L.A. story you'll ever experience. Written by Steve Martin.
