    Kelly "What do you think Oddball?"
    Oddball: "It's a wasted trip baby nobody said anything about locking horns with no tigers"
    Big Joe: "You just keep them tigers busy we'll take car of the rest"
    Oddball: "The only I got to keep them tigers busy is to let them shoot holes in me"
    Kelly: "We just want you to keep interested for awhile thats all"
    Moriariti: "You guys are crazy..When we we're in the Bocage Country we we're assaulted by them tigers! do you know what I mean by assaulted!"
    Oddball: "Why don't you knock it off with them Negative Waves! Why don't dig how beautiful it is out here. Why can't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change"
    Moriariti: "Crap"

    Great compilation, TT.

    A war movie, continental style: Rome, Open City - Rossellini. Think Life is Beautiful but without the candy-coating. It is the first in a trilogy but I've not seen the rest yet.

    Dead Man and The Proposition should be added to the westerns category. Or is there a kind of western category?

    44 Inch Chest -- I was blown away. John Hurt is my hero.
    Steep -- Well done, inspiring, sobering.
    Blade Runner -- Any season. All seasons. The cinema version with Deckard's voice over.

    "Into Great Silence"

    OK, I'm kidding. I saw it (yes, all of it) in a movie theater. Not sure it would work at home, where it's much easier to bail on the movie.

    Prior to "Casque d'Or," which is the current disc I have from Netflix, I had "Le Samourai." Both very good options, if you're into French movies.

    When Pike says "Let's Go" , we'd all say Why Not, there's a little bit of the Wild Bunch in most of this motley crew.

    Silverado is missing as well, and for fans of Harvey Keitel "Imaginary Crimes" is hard to beat.

    Asian/Martial Arts Films, "The Man from Nowhere" and "Red Belt" are a couple favorites and worth a look.
