  • Rules of the Game was very high on my list. Great pick.
    "I lingered round them, under that benign sky: watched the moths fluttering among the heath and harebells, listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass, and wondered how any one could ever imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth."

      So good. Haven't seen it in a while and am anxious to re-watch it when I get the opportunity.

        Me too. Probably been at least 10 years or so since I have seen it.

          yeah, it's quite the piece ... not sure about streaming options other than things like kodi
          It certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence.

            Agreed. This has been fun. I have a few movies to check out that I have not seen or need to see again.

            Should we add two bonus rounds for those that want to.

            Maybe for those that don't could just put in pass and I will fill that in on the front page of the draft?

                Sounds good to me. I'm in.

                DMT, nice pick with Manchurian Candidate. Interesting to see Angela Lansbury in such an atypical role for her.
                "Igor, would you give me a hand with the bags?"
                "Certainly. You take the blonde and I'll take the one in the turban!"

                  • I might be able to squeeze two more picks.
                    If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.
