He hanged himself from this tree. It was three days before he was found and the sad thing is no one missed him. Oh look, some of the rope is still here. :eyebrows:
Watched the first episode of Taken, and was taken by it and will watch more later....
...Tonight's film will be Brian Hutton's 1970 war/crime caper based on true events, Kelly's Heroes, starring Clint Eastwood, Telly Savalas, Don Rickles and Donald Sutherland...oh, and The Love Boat captain Gavin MacLeod as Moriarty, the mechanical genius.
No need to introduce this one here as its a favourite of many including me.
I take it you enjoyed that one then? :)
I've not watched it in a few years now because I was in danger of spoiling it for myself.
Just about to watch the first episode of The Curse of Oak Island which is a documentary series about this place:

I did....the Oak Island thing sounds interesting.
I am back on to ep 2 of Taken.
This TAKEN is damned compulsive DOH!

Last night, on BBC2, I watched the "final directors cut" of Bladerunner. Apart from a couple of extended scenes (previously edited, I assume as they might have seemed a bit explicit/violent) there was not much between this and the previous "directors cut".
It was followed by a very interesting film about the making of the Bladerunner, why the original theatre version used a voice-over and why the studio insisted on 'the happy ending'. It also revealed that Tyrell himself was a replicant, something that was not obvious (well not to me) in any of the film versions.
An interesting film (I have seen it many times) but one almost totally divorced from the book on which it is based: Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?.
I always preferred the first version with the voice over - the noir 30's feel suits the film.Quote:
