Oh please do!
I will PM my email!

OHHHHHH! Great GREAT movie! Carol Reed at his finest! Orson Welles, one of the great character intro shots ever. The final sequence, sheer brilliance, the ferris wheel sequence, great! The score by Anton Karras, haunting. The little kid with the ball, unforgettable! The photography, deep blacks and shadows, sharp whites, just a fabulous movie!

I'll definitely let you guys know what I think of it after.
I really want to rent the 'Magnificent Ambersons' too.

I don't think Ambersons has been released in the US yet. If you have the ability to watch PAL DVDs (and there's no good reason why you shouldn't), let me know...

And since there's such a huge demand for the Harry Lime mp3s (ok, only Snowflake so far, but still...), I put up the first ten episodes for your convenient downloading pleasure. If there's a call for 'em, I'll post the rest.

Dang it. I saw it on TCM or FMC and thought for sure it would be on DVD. Dagburn!
I don't have PAL capabilities. Darn it.
Time to harass Ted Turner again. I wrote TCM several times to release 'The Man Who Came to Dinner' on DVD. It finally came out a month ago or so. (I'm sure it had nothing to do with my letters, but sheesh why'd they wait so long?)

Thanks Mousepod!

I'm downloaded them now!

The Philips DVP642 player (currently $55 on amazon) will play PAL discs on your NTSC player, has a simple region-free hack (with the remote), and will play many divx files (just download 'em and burn 'em to a cd or dvd). I'm not the only LoTer who has one (how many parentheticals will it take to convince you?).

I want one.

Buy it. It has been a wonderful thing to have.

I need to see The Third Man again. It's been ages.

I think I may have bought that book for my dad one Christmas. I wonder if I own a copy. Someday I'll have to go through the books I own and figure out what I own and what I don't. It's going to be a very big job.
