The list includes some neglected gems like Gore Vidal’s “The Best Man” (one of the sharpest political films ever made), “Cold Turkey” (a wild comedy about an entire town that quits smoking together), and “The Tenth Man,” a Graham Greene WWII drama with Anthony Hopkins and Kristin Scott Thomas.

I’ll have to check out “Valentino”–I grew up watching a video of Nureyev and Dame Margot Fonteyn in “Swan Lake” (though I was terrified of Von Rothbart and I still don’t get why they thought they needed all those close-ups of him). Nureyev was gorgeous and MY GOSH could he dance!! He’s still one of my favourites.
I’d love to hear what you think of it! I think you will enjoy it, but I am pretty sure you will conclude that Nureyev was a better dancer than an actor. Thanks for a great comment!

Dear Mr. Dyke:
On the eve in Edmonton, Alberta as posted above; I viewed the exacting motion picture “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang;” at the then Venue of Ave.
The enormous feature of this brilliant filming is Ms Andrew’s (a Julie; I named my true full Roman Catholic daughter in front of the Grey Nuns Hospital for health identification); here I viewed today in part with my Dear love and beauty wife, a Ms Janet Ellen; the reason I love this kool film is the inventive humour I find all British in flavour.
The scene Mr. Caractacus Potts; a Jew in head and an Irish in temperament fights away being poor by creating a ‘flying machine;’ a Ms Sally Ann Howes heads direction as a ‘flighty’ women in need of a marital to Mr. Van Dyke.
In Mr. Ian Fleming’s masterful concert in written gospel of baby bear th; the cry for all young; children of all background play safe and remain unharmed!
The auto here is a proven Rolls part; and Mercedes; the engine inside is a kool 490-cubic-inch; Ford. The wings unfold by a diesel motor from an Austin, Texan power plant to kool the hydraulics from over heating to drinkable clear, like Texan men who care about their mother and with due respect; world wide.!
The bang! Bang!, is the sound of a drum used by my insight; this is accomplished by a metal ‘thud;’ a Ms Anna Quayle heads a rousing song: ‘My First Is New And Here’; this Rogers and Hammerstein composition; along with Metro Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures new sound-track invented by the Central Intelligence Agency along with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Unit-1A; of decoding; did a brilliant recording serving the motion pictures realm, since 1960.
