I always felt there was too much Wood. Especially at the institution. I guess I was more drawn to the period and wish there were more scenes of the town. Teenage angst has never been my favorite theme. A better Inge story, for me, was The Dark At The Top Of The Stairs. MUCH better character development, and NEVER broadcast anymore. You can catch it on the net off some Europeon website. Eve Arden and Angela Lansbury (her favorite role) are wonderful in it.
I wouldn't say I was confused but I always thought Jacqueline Brookes was a poor mans version of Bea Arthur. Though I always thought she was just as talented. Her profile does not have a picture of her (sadly) so I can only ask you to google her.
The spiders. Spiders just creep me out. And they don't resemble tarantulas like so many others. They look like giant yellow gardner spiders.
Thank you. I was wondering if that was the case.
Joni Mitchell's Big Yellow Taxi. I always thought she said "The Pink Paradise put up a parking lot." In fact she says "They paved paradise and put up a parking lot."
Psycho. The juxtaposition of the titles against Bernard Herrmann's shrieking score tell us immediately that something is amiss.

lets see if this works.

Also, there were MANY ax murders in this period. I was shocked when I read about it. There was a good YouTube video about them. Sorry I can't locate it.
How Green Was My Valley (1941)

Roddy McDowell played the boy Hu. He wasn't late for school in this instance. He was fighting a bully.
I don't think so db. The Villisca case has never been solved. It happened in 1912 (two months after the Titanic sinking.) Also, this house had no basement but did have a cellar that was accessible from the outside. It's a very famous case and here is ONE article you can read up on about it:

I would have never left those mountains.
If the new generation should be known as anything, it should be the anti-ad generation.

Word of mouth should be more then efficient to sell your product if it's any good. Everyone else is just a snake oil salesman.
I can't stress this enough.
Beautifully filmed and acted. And scored even better. But I must admit, I don't care to watch it much. I chalked the reason up to there being no love interest. Unless you include the love of power. Also, I HATE the dessert, always have. I'm a mountain and forest man. I guess thats why my pick of best Lean film is Dr. Zhivago. (With Great Expectations or Bridge On The River Kwai running a close second.)
The elephant in the room here is how much is paid to the owners for use. Jerry Springer? Of course. He'd whore out his show for 10 cents.
I hate the term "favorite" because it's too limiting. Also, are you referring to those docs only released to theaters or do you include television docs as well?
I agree with the poster stating Ken Burns. I also like American Experience and Frontline. For movie docs Id like to add The Thin Blue Line and Food Inc.
Also a good doc about a famous ax murder of an entire family and friends in Iowa called Villisca: Living With A Mystery.
I have never heard of this Godewey. I had one instance of this in 1988. Since it was only one occurance I am inclined to believe my initial suspicions about what happened so let me explain.
I was working in a large hotel and was in the break room. There was a short, foreign black man also in there. This man showed an unusually strong attraction to me and I avoided him at all costs because he made me nervous. I think he was from Kenya.
When I got off work a couple of hours later I went home. It was around 9pm and I was tired so I decided to take a nap before my room mate got home from work at 2am. I don't remember dreaming but I distinctly remember waking up and being unable to move. I was terrified. I wanted to call 911 and the phone was right next to me on my nightstand, but I couldn't move an inch. I couldn't even turn my head to see what time it was. I panicked but was frozen. I could do nothing but pray my room mate checked on me when he got home and drift back off to sleep.
When he did get home he did check on me and I awoke with no problem. I told him about it and was met with disbelief. I told my best friend and my parents about it and was met with the same disbelief and told I was probably dreaming. Nothing to this day will convince them otherwise.
I came to the conclusion that this co-worker had put something in the drink I had in the break room. Sounds far fetched, I know, but what else could it be? I quit that job withing the month.

You are so right,, R_Kane.
It would also take the profiteering out of the equation and force the organized criminals into other venues. (Most probably kidnapping, their old tried and true.)
You see, there will always be organized crime.
Ironic, isn't it? Alcohol is what should be banned for gun owners.
I believe the solution to most of our democratic problems is the funding of candidates.
It turned them into products instead of statesmen.
It should all be stopped.
In an era of mass communication and social media, there's no need for state to state, city to city campaigning.
