The original Outer Limits is on DVD, in glorious B&W and
mono sound.

Dark Shadows: Day after day I was on the edge of my seat because Angelina
was going to bite Julian! Now I don't remember if she ever did. I seem to
remember that it went off the air after that.

As far as the movies above...this is just more to add to my list. And I
will certainly look for outer limits on DVD.

I have a new FILMFEST: James McAvoy, who starred in "Becoming Jane." He's
done a lot of movies that score over 7 on the IMBb ratings. I would have to
say my specialty is Romance. Now I am not the type to read cheap romantic
novels--never read even one, actually--but on the screen is different. I
love the chemistry between actors; I think that is a really neat thing.

Your specialty is silent films? So you've seen all of Chaplain's films?
How much silent film is there? Lots of titles? I don't know if my store
carries any...

We can take this conversation off the ng if you like. Just take the "nospam"
from my address and you can send mail. Maybe we've said enough already?
either way, I am enjoying it. Movies and Books are my "thing"

What's the other 50% the one on Venus? I'm too tired right now to look up
the actual name of it.


From: Shelagh on
50% you got is for the correct answer on the tallest mountain in the universe...
the other 50% you are missing, is for the answer to the tallest mountain on earth, other than Everest.....
and you didn't answer that question..... so you get half marks...
