  1. Definitely one of the greatest films ever made. Cried last time I saw it.

  2. From 8 days ago, a grab from my journal of the 10 Greatest Films Ever Made.

    Strangely you'd also ended up on my front page several days earlier,as both enticement and warning to prospective friends. It's kinda totally cosmic, or something equally hippy-dippy. Write to me, Samantha, and let's explore this "same wavelength" thing more thoroughly!
