Hilarious film! She is great in it. As is Jason Statham and I never thought I'd say that

The idea that the richest country in the world can't afford universal healthcare is laughable.
Here in the UK we created the NHS after WW2 when we had basically no money. It can be done.

And so off they go to Oxbridge, Trinity College, Sorbonne etc. A policy that only serves to weaken the US even further.
I weep for the US.

I think so yes, it's certainly one of my favourites. The trick with this genre of Italian films is to enjoy them for what they are, and don't think too much about the plot! As they're usually paper-thin. But they're great fun.

Heavenly Creatures is a great film. Surprised not to see Pink Flamingos on there!

In the 90s, Channel 4 in the UK showed all sorts of horror films; Scanners and Candyman really made an impression on me.

Our MD will often play the first (few) note(s) of whatever canticles we're practicing for the next service. Collective Choir Brain means somebody gets it!

Never really fancied MSC and your review has cemented my opinion, Gary. What with cruise fares being so expensive currently, you've got to be careful where you spend your money. Even if MSC is "cheap".

Terrific film. Probably the best Stephen King cinematic adaptation.

Just come back from Liverpool this weekend. Great city. Other replies in this thread have great suggestions - check out The Vines pub near Lime St station. Extraordinary Edwardian interior.

I was under the impression that the Republican party stands for minimising Goverment intervention in people's lives- but this is exactly the opposite? Determining what children can/can't read?
A pick-n-mix ideology.

We sang that the other day at Beverley Minster. Written by Haydn I believe. I misread it as "Australia", which would be quite a different hymn tune!

Timothy Taylor may be as close as you will get. Don't think Ms Swift has been to Keighley though.
