i really should get around to watching "a beautiful mind"....that was a Russel Crowe movie wasnt it?
i love the soundtrack to "space odyssey 2001", i have it on vinyl....awesome pieces of music IMO.
they made a sequel also didnt they..."space odyssey 2010" from memory?
and to think Shawshank Redemption came from a 120pg short novella from Stephen King entitled "Rita Hayworth & The Shawshank Redemption"....
its the best adaption of a Stephen King story ever made....i wish he would write more stuff like that and....
The Green Mile(starred Tom Hanks).....very good movie
Misery(real good psychological thriller)..stars Cathy Bates and James Caan
Delores Clairborne(thriller)..................stars Cathy Bates
both are worth a look if you havent seen Misery/Delores Clairborne is suggest you do.

I'm a sucker for any movie with Irene Dunn and Cary Grant together. You gotta love Jimmy Stewart! And my guilty pleasures are anything Cameron Diaz (for the most part) and Melissa McCarthy!
