Whenever times are tough, everyone looks for a distraction. I try to go about it the right way. You can only drink so much. And for all the people who really took ill in a big way, I don't think a doctor would recommend hitting the bottle. Even though it's mostly through, I was compiling a list of great movies. Some of em are old.

Godfather
Angels with Dirty Faces
Coffy
First Blood Rambo
Scent of a Woman
Django
Raiders of the Lost Ark
The Big Doll House
Body Heat
The Graduate

I'm trying to pick out big ones. There are others, plenty of others. Who doesn't like movies, you know? Anyway, I stand by all of these recommendations. Go on and ask if you wanna know more. I think that's better than yammering on too long.

Ah, the classics.

Don't you forget it. You don't need all the special effects to have a good time.

You know it! I mean, sure, a little flash and splash can be fun. Good ol' blockbusters. They've been cranking those out for years. But, really, when you're going to talk classics, you're looking at the nuances of storytelling and the creativity of the medium.

But, hey, now I'm waxing philosophical. So I'll shut up and add "Last Crusade" to your list. I mean, "Lost Ark" is great, but I've got a soft spot for "Last Crusade," you know?
