What a great list! You can ENJOY Ludwig von, but when's the last time the third movement of the sixth symphony made you remember going to see "Hospital" with Gail ...although I did take Barbara to hear the Mahler 8th (can't spell eightth, eigth, aaagth)But that's not what it's about, Victor; the list is about 'cool' movies. Not Great Movies but Flicks that were fun, like the Matthau where he's a crook, Charlie Verrick, or Topkapi or the first (I can spell that) Batman or Sneakers or, on a musical note, High Fidelity. Let's see, I love a mutton, lettuce and tomato sandwich so the Princess Bride, Young Frankenstein, and Space Pirates. Then there's Throw Momma From the Train, Prizzi's Honor and Tremors. How'm I doin, Late?

Hi,
my spelling is bad, so i keep several dictionaries handy. Seriously, i have the standard Collegiate, an old 3 volume library Websters, the NY Times dictionary of misunderstood, mispelled, and m,ispronounced words, dictionaries of philosophy, history, science, theories. IMHO, you never have all the dictionaries you need.
The book, Princees Bride, was much better than the movie, i think you would like the book 'Never Cry Wolf' as well. The first day i had 'Never Cry Wolf', i read it twice, it's short and funny.
I think Hospital and Space Pirates escaped me, will keep an eye out. Have you ever seen Soapdish, Moon over Parador, or What's Up, Doc?
