    does anyone remember BODY HEAT with a very young John Hurt and introducing Kathleen Turner? sizzle....

    how about OBSESSION with Cliff Roberston and Genevieve Bujold?

    I suppose I am dating myself with these two flicks, but they hold their appeal, all these years later

    I liked "The Incredibles" very much, it was such a hilarious spoof on the whole "superhero/evil villian" genre. I really liked "Contact" from a few years ago, also "Groundhog Day", "What About Bob", both "Spiderman" films, both "X-men" films, "A Passage to India", "Sirens", "Out of Africa", "Opportunity Knocks", "Mr Destiny", "Splash", "Scrooged", "Brother Bear", "UHF", and "Gladiator", in no particular order.

    The Patriot - It made me feel a bit of patriotism for the first time. I actually for once thought about the people that made where we live what it is. I do not appreciate all of the commercialism in the

    Damn Yankees- What apostababe does not have a lil? Lola in her?

    Scent of a Woman-because people should live life to the fullest! Enjoy the little things like?perhaps a scent of someone that you love to hold close and just breathe with. prophecor YOU ARE ON THE MONEY WITH THAT ONE.

    Original Sin. Because it makes me breathe funny?

    Life is Beautiful.- Because relate to covering my hurt with laughter.

    Pavilion of Women. ? Because although the religious aspect is a bit corny, I sincerely understand the atrocities that a woman goes through and I can see the whole moral dilemma that one would go through in the situation of the main actress. I also think that she portrayed a broken woman that is really touched and in love for the first time very well. Not just a kiss scene.

    Shine. (Naked on the Trampoline) Because the main person is proud of whom she loves despite handicaps

    Quills. Nuff said

    Last of the Mohicans Legends of the Fall,

    a. They all have a fairy tale in them

    b. The small man triumphs

    c. Oh, the ?rebel lead men? in each of them.

    d.

    The Pianist. Real F?ing Life. Makes me stop whining.

    Most any Julia Roberts film. She portrays the heart well. Even when it is fickle, angry, stupid, jealous, honesty and especially hurt and laughter.

    Don Juan de Marco (for the scene where Johnny Depp explains to a stranger in a restaurant how a woman's fingers are like her legs as he is gently kissing them)

    Local Hero (loved the look the group of men exchanged when asked whose baby that was in the stroller)

    Bedazzled (the original----Peter Cook as the Devil is delightful)

    The Little Prince (live action----Bob Fosse!)

    The Razor's Edge (remake----beautiful and tragic)

    Blade Runner (definitely atmospheric)

    The Witches of Eastwick (always makes me smile)

    Big Fish (very imaginative and touching)

    The Ruling Class (Peter O'Toole could make even me believe in Jesus)

    The Adventures of Mark Twain (claymated----see Cain ride up to the Adam&Eve family picnic on his Harley)

    The Wicker Man (Christopher Lee really really does it for me!)

    and, of course, Monty Python----and the Holy Grail,----'s the Meaning of Life, ----The Life of Brian
