Fun Movie Friday–Legend

 From 1985.  Pure fantasy.  Starring Tom Cruise (yep, THAT Tom Cruise).  And Tim Curry.  And Billy Barty.  Soundtrack by Tangerine Dream (because it was the 80’s).  Directed by Ridley Scott (yep, THAT Ridley Scott). 

This will not be to most of y’all’s taste.  I loved it and saw it in the theater multiple times when it came out.



  1. Mia Sara ALONE was reason enough for me to catch this.

  2. Tim Curry was great in that movie. I couldn't believe it was him.The last thing I'd seen him in was fishnets and high heels.

  4. I can still hear him say “Boyee!” when he had Cruise pinned to the wall between his horns.And yes, Mia was hot in that.

  5. Veeshir–My favorite scene was when he was trying to seduce Lili. 'Sit… and talk with me… Some… simple conversation' with that chuckle. He really is the master of nuance.
