  So I am still trudging through the list of movies that I should have seen. The three most recent were Some Like It Hot. Of course, that's one worth buying. It took me three days but I got through The Deer Hunter. That movie is just awful. I'm not one for war movies, but the shots take far too long. Do we need thirty minutes to watch people dance at a wedding? Gee whiz. It's a wedding we get it. Move on already.
  Also, I did watch The Third Man. I can't say that it is worth buying, but if you get the chance to rent it do so. If only for the one or two quotes in it. The one about the dots and the one in which Orson Wells says...
Don't be so gloomy. After all it's not that awful. Like the fella says, in Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock. So long Holly.
  I really don't have anything to say, so there you go. A movie quote. Share and Enjoy.
