Richard Farnsworth, Sissy Spacek (she got a nomination for it) and DAvid Lynch, of all people,directing. A wonderful, quirky story of an old man and his tractor. One of my top ten of all time. And no Lynch 'Dwarf' Deus Ex Machina here. Lock, Stock is a great story line with a terrific ensemble of actors and best of all, kind of a sequel to "Snatch".

Some of my favorites are: Network - a timeless classic, every scene, every line has weight and meaning. Incredible acting. Played my DVD of it recently and was amazed how it still holds up. Dr. Strangelove - another movie that just gets better with age. The Godfather Parts 1 & 2 - 'nuff said! Porky's - juvenile, inmature, childish and just plain fun! Animal House - see Porky's. High Plains Drifter - My favorite western. The Lord Of The Rings Trilogy - epic filmaking, I never thought they would make as good as they turned out. Forbiden Planet - 1950s sci-fi that still holds up. Check out a young Leslie Nielsen Best regards, Ralph
