Front-Ranger:
Which cable channel was it, Scott? I need to find a way to access some of these great films. Is there a rental source or do I need to buy them on Amazon or Ebay? Thanks!

Oh gosh, it's been some years ago, but it must have been either HBO or Cinemax on which I saw Caro diario--I know it couldn't have been Showtime. I suppose it might have been IFC. Don't know about the rental/purchase data regarding this movie, but I'll look it up on the IMDb, and see what I can find.

Kd5000:
I tend towards the philisophical or  tragic love story epic mode.

1. Brokeback Mountain

2. Doctor Zhivago, is that is that not Lara he seems on the trolley? Great cinematography.

3. SOLARIS (1972) art house film, good philisophical film, how real is she?

4. Howard's End. Alot of symbolism, impeccable acting, great storyline.

5. The Last Emperor.  I just threw that one out there. He's an anti-hero. Ennis has been called that as well.

6. Donnie Darko. Makes you think, very philisophical as well. 

7. Manchurian Candidate. Excellant political and pyschological thriller. Not to be a plot spoiler, NEVER would have imagined who the villian would have been.

8. GATTACA.  A movie with a msg. All the guys are pumped up and good looking dressed in their versace suits. I could work at a  place like that :)

Others; MAGNOLIA, ORDINARY PPL, ICE STORM...

I wish they'd make a great version of 1984. When he betrays Julia, "do it to Julia, do it to Julia" it's just so heart-wrenching. I was not happy with the version done in 1984, though maybe it's just so grim of a book, it makes for a very grim film.

That's the trouble with automatic smileys, eh? They come on whether you want them or not. On the preview screen that's
8 + ) = 8)

Yeah sorry, I only noticed that now.

I forgot to add Cruel Intentions (which kind of brings it up to 12 but anyway!)
