Don't read these reviews aloud.
Pontypool is about a deadly virus which, as the local radio DJs discover, is spread through speech.

Lemmy in for #846.
Vertigo has deposed Citizen Kane as "the greatest film of all time" in the latest Sight & Sound poll.
My Vertigo review is meant to evoke Proust and his madeleine cake.
To Have and to Hold, set in Papua New Guinea, echoes Vertigo.
In Strange Bedfellows, two Australian straight men have to pass as a gay couple to deceive a snoopy income tax inspector.
Red Skelton's cabbie in The Yellow Cab Man is named Pirdy. |

All the fun of the fair.
Read the small print if you wanna ...
> Woogie has a particular fetish
> Holiday songs by a certain Irving
> Hilary's boxed, now she's chopped
> Lovely John Keats likened reading Chapman's Homer to a certain explorer's sight of "a peak in Darien." These jr. spies share his name.
> Beardy Bates is holed up in a barn and the kids think he's the son of god, so they take good care of him.

Top Tips
Jane Seymour plays identical twins in Dark Mirror.
Diane Lane�s character in Must Love Dogs is torn between suitors Jake (John Cusack) & Bob (Dermot Mulroney).
To the Copenhagen policeman assigned to South Jutland in Frygtelig Lykkelig, the dialect word mojn (pronounced �moin�), meaning both hello & goodbye, symbolises his unhappy exile. Even his cat seems to say it.

NB:
"Killer Joe", directed by William Friedkin, has a memorably unpleasant scene with a KFC drumstick.
Terrible "Colombiana" was directed by Olivier Megaton.
