Movies you can watch over and over again. |

"Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?" "Paint Your Wagon" "Cat Balou" "The Big Lebowski" "Let it Ride"
There are others--these are just the first that came to mind.

1. So I married an Axe Murderer |
|
I don't care for much of Mike Meyers' other stuff, but I love that movie. Whatever Happened to Baby Jane is a great movie, I agree!

39. You don't happen to have DirecTV do you? |
|
DirecTV just added a new channel to their line-up. Chiller Channel. Late-night, they show the old Hitchcock TV show. This weekend, they're showing Dial M for Murder.
My son is now a huge Hitchcock fan (I guess it's my shoddy parenting as to why he never heard of Hitchcock before this :D ; I don't know why I had not acquainted him with Hitchcock before now).

45. I don't have DirectTV |

but I do have the local library, which has a fair stock of Hitchcock (no rhyme intended). Until recently, we had an outstanding video store in our neighborhood, but it was sacrificed on the altar of gentrification. (I'm getting depressed now just thinking about what we lost. :cry: )
My (11 year old) daughter became a Hitchcock fan this year after seeing Rear Window for the first time. Isn't your son also about 11? I guess it's the right age to fall in love with getting scared on purpose.

In my former life, I was an airbrush artist. He's begging me to do a Hitchcock line profile for him. I guess I'll be getting the old equipment out and making a tee for him soon.
I know what you mean about gentrification. Same thing happened here, with local music stores and video stores. It's terrible.
Hope all is good with you, my favorite worm. :hi:

Leaving Normal Survivors
this is embarassing, but I love the movie "Baby Boom". I don't know why because it has a reactionary sub-text, but I just love the part where she moves to Vermont and starts her own company. It's something about the snow and the cold, I love movies with that setting.
Also love Dial M for Murder The Talented Mr. Ripley The Bourne Conspiracy

Not really a movie, but I have watched it about a thousand times. It has a permanant place on my netflix queue. The box set price has recntly dropped from about $75-80 to near $50 and I am now trying to justify to myself that feeding my kid ramen for a month is worth it (hey, she loves the series also).
I also love "so I Married an Axe Murderer". I wish Mike Myers woud more stuff like it.
Others
Blazing Saddles Young Frankenstein Just One of The Guys (uber-cheesy 80's movie) Full Metal Jacket Breakfast at Tiffany's Monty Python and The Holy Grail (and life of brian and meaning of life)
to name a few.
