'Voulez-vous, will you kiss my dick?'
Will you play my record? One-track mind!

I was surprised Titanic wasn't. I voted for Brokeback Mountain, The Color Purple and Steel Magnolias. In that order.

I voted. :)
BBM still in the lead.


I never heard of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, but liked the title and looked it up. Sounds worth a try. In German, they butchered the title to forget-me-not, like the flowers.

Actually, that title is pretty appropriate for the film.

Ok, then I take my comment back, at least as long as I haven't seen the movie. ;D
