Damn good movie!

Catch it several times on TV and always lucky to have family members also watching with me.

I'm a big fan of his quirkier flicks not to mention all of those Bond movies. Didn't he do one about the Green Man of english yore? Found it, 'The Sword of the Valiant' as the Green Knight. Liked 'The Name of the Rose', too.

I thought Outland was a good Connery flick.

More from the Netflix trial: Time Bandits and three episodes of a Showtime series - The Tudors - more of a soap opera than an historical drama, but my wife has a thing for films on the British Monarchy. Enough skin in it to keep me interested.

Regards,

The Pianist: ADRIEN BRODY

Saw this several times and still get emotionally involved:

Near the end the pianist is coming out of hiding to liberating troops, but he
forgets he is wearing the uniform coat of a German officer.

Every time at that juncture I shout loudly at the TV trying to warn/inform the
Pianist that he is still wearing a German coat.

Excellent movie directed by the awful Roman Polanski.

Tudors was an interesting series and pretty brutal but then so was the life and times of the House of Tudor.

I was kind of surprised that they still use cheap lawn chairs in the future, and those Remington 1100 ray gun conversions were interesting as well.

Yup, High Noon in space, kind of.
