Such larks! Not to mention sea creatures ...
I think you'll get the rest, but in
The Last Ride, there's a WWII scam involving rationed vehicle tires [which the Brits spell tyres ... go figure!]

The eponymous paedophile in Michael keeps a boy he's abducted locked up in his cellar.
The Convincer (released as Thin Ice, I think) is about an insurance scam involving a violin.

Hi dee ho!!
So here are my notes:
a) Jonestown: The Life And Death Of Peoples Temple: Finally a place for this review!!! Jim Jones was from Indiana.
b) The Shop Around The Corner: Predecessor of You've Got Mail. Don't know if I like this one better, but it differs little except there's no internet to speak of!
c) The Bourne Legacy: No Jason Bourne, no Matt Damon. How's this Bourne?
d) The Odd Life Of Timothy Green: A childless couple bury a box in their backyard, containing all of their wishes for an infant. Soon, a child springs forth, as planted.
e) Anatomy of a Murder: Laura Manion returns home to tell her husband she's been raped. Lt. Manion kills the rapist and then claims crime of passion as a defense. At least that's his story. Paul Biegler agrees to defend him and must unravel a case in which the motivations of the murderer, his wife, and the victim are all in question. Key evidence - her panties. |

The play's the thing
NB:
In "Heaven Can Wait" Don Ameche plays a incurable womaniser explaining his life at the gates of hell.
In "A Streetcar Named Desire" brutal Stanley is called a pig several times.
In "Bus Stop" Don Murray plays Bo Decker - a bachelor cowboy travelling to a rodeo and looking for a wife.
Irene Papas plays the title role in "Antigone".
In Cormac McCarthy's two-hander "The Sunset Limited" the characters are called Black and White. |

Click for this week's musical selections.
Liner notes:
Anthony Mann directed Border Incident, about Mexican migrant workers illegally transported into California.
In The Dark Crystal, the restoration of a crystal shard is necessary to end the rule of those deplorable Skeksis.
P.S. Think Chuck Berry for the Border Incident review, if that helps.

Very nice.

Because it's his legacy? Wild guess.  |
