Some recent, some decent.

Bit of reading matter:
> In Sean Lackey's The Yank Colm Meaney explores the land of his forefathers.

> Sterling Hayden's Johnny Guitar gets involved with that sweet adorable lace-trimmed Joan Crawford.

> I'm sure you know The Orient Express is a train running in the days when passengers were classified.

> Multi-award nommed The Sessions should bring a tear to your eye in a tale of paraplegia.

> In case you didn't know, the US Congress in Washington DC is affectionately called The Hill, short for Capitol Hill.

Some snowy films for this very snowy week in the UK.

NB:
In "Transsiberian" Emily Mortimer's character travelling with her seemingly dimwitted husband Woody Harrelson ends up accidentally smuggling heroin.
"Cap" can mean top, abbreviate Captain or mean kill, or in the case of really great reviewing all three at once.

I looked at them, and at everyone else's (whether changed or not) at the time that I posted. You got four from me, including a previous vote for the best one.
