I've never seen Jagged Edge for some reason but I always remember seeing it in the video rental shop and thinking "I must get that out ..." |

'The Eyes of Laura Mars' with Faye Dunnaway and Tommy Lee Jones. Edd...it sounds familiar and I think I've seen it, but a while back though. Is there a scene ewhere he's walking on a foof top carrying a naked girl. It's not crudley done atall, but I have a feeling it's near to the end of the film and as you say there is a twist at the end...forgotton what the twist is though!! doh ! |

Couldn't be more different ...the next couple of favourites...Chevy Case and the gang...National Lampoons European and American Vacation...with Beverley De Angelo as the long suffering Ellen his wife. So funny, especially the European one...bit like us when we used to take the kids abroad (Menorca) every year...our lad was just like Rusty in so many ways!!! If you've seen these two you'll know what I mean. |

Hi Carol thanks for your post...Greer Garson and Walter Pidgeon eh? I had memories of a very funny line in Rising Damp come to mind when I read that . Rigsby says to Miss Jones that she reminded him of the lovely Greer Garson...to which Miss Jones replies..."Did your wife look like Greer Garson Mr Rigsby?" and he says "No Miss Jones, more like Walter Pidgeon." |

Oh and while I'm on the subject of John Belushi - remember the Blues Brothers? |

I have to admit that I've not seen either of those films Edd, Animal House or Blues Brothers, so can't comment on either. Think that my cousin Frank may have Blues Brothers on tape, if he has will give it a look. |

No I haven't got around to seeing Australia yet either - and now I'm back at work I suspect I won't get a chance to either! |

He wasn't called 'Citizen Smith' was he Edd? lol. I loved that series in the seventies. Robert Lyndsey has gone on to become a house hold name, done lot's of theatre work too I believe. |

I remember the Gary Gilmour film, if I remember correctly it was called The Executioners song..... also starred the excellent Rosanna {Ithink} Arquette as his long suffering girl friend...{always get those Arquette sisters mixed up!!} |

"Bastinado"....i presume you mean being beaten on their feet with wooden poles.?...... very harrowing stuff..... just looked it up on Google and saw it was directed by Oliver Stone, think it must have been one of his early, if not 1st films...... |
