- Well, I see many films again.
-
- In particular, I have seen these films many, many times:
-
- Terminator : Simply the best action film ever made. Internally
- consistent, tightly plotted, well acted and all round just wonderful.
-
- Raising Arizona : For some reason I find this funnier each time I see
- it.
-
- Drowning by Numbers : The perfect film.
-
- Weekend at Bernie's : See, there is no accounting for taste.

- I watched some of this last night but had had too much vodka to
- welcome in the New Year. The first 10 minutes looked mildly
- interesting and Jack Nicholson looked awfully young! Oh well, I'll
- catch up with it some other time. :-)
