Do you by any chance have the sound track from the modern version of the movie? (Metropolis) It is in the top 10 of all albums I have. Adam Ant and Bonnie Tyler are awesome on this recording.
Yes.
Another great classic is ‘THINGS TO COME’

My wife is complaining that these lists all reflect the preferences of old men. Where are the « chick flicks » and « hunk » films? Sigh, I guess it’s our primary demograpic, unfortunately.

I'm on board with that one too,
Just one frame of that film is enough to spin my wheels... I use this one as a "desk top":

I've been avoiding watching "Jack Reacher" because I can't visualize Cruise as Reacher who in the books is a 6' 1" guy weighing 225 lbs. and built like Rocky. Cruise is 5'6". It is suppose to air on TV tonight so I may look in to see how they overcome this problem. I'm not a Cruise fan either, but have to give him credit for a fine performance in "Top Gun".
Totally agree. Loved every Reacher book I have read (all to date). Cruise is not him.

And while we're on David Lean, Lawrence of Arabia. I saw it a few years back with a new 70mm print in a theater - hard to beat.
