currently streaming on HBO Max. Still as funny and campy as it was 40 years ago.
I own the digital version of Silent Partner (1978) and watch it every other year at Christmas. Stars Elliot Gould, Christopher Plummer, Suzanna York, and John Candy (!) in his first film role. Plummer plays a great villain.
Don't know what it is about Up in the Air that grabs me. It's dated now even though the film is just 13 years old. I think I secretly envy Ryan Bingham's life, as twisted as it is.
