A light hearted ww2 film now with Operation Petticoat, 1959. Directed by Blake Edwards, and stars Cary Grant and Tony Curtis.
good fun this, and the 2 stars are ably assisted by a good cast.(preposerous story mind)
The film was a big hit and Grant wisely arranged it that he ended up netting about $3m for his services.. his highest payday to that date

They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

Nothing on last night at all so decided to watch a Christmas film, choice between 'Die Hard' and 'Zulu!'
Went for 'Die Hard' (1988)
Might watch 'Zulu!' tonight, although traditionally it should be viewed on Boxing Day when there should at least be one film that's all stirring and Imperial. Other valid options include 'The Four Feathers', 'Zulu Dawn', 'Young Winston', 'The Man Who Would Be King', or one of the 'Bridges' films either the one that's on the Kwai or the one that's too far. Not 'The Bridges At Toko Rei' though, too American.

This one appeals to me - I did an IMDB on Armando Iannucci, and he has some impressive credentials with political satire. And I do like stuff with paddy ConsidineOriginally Posted by struth

Last night we watched a film called "Centigrade". Don't bother, unless you enjoy shouting at the telly. It's a couple trapped in their car for the entire length of the film, one and a half hours. Like being in the drive-through queue at McDonalds, but with added snowI would rather have spent that time grouting the bathroom tiles, and they don't need grouting.
