I had a whole section about civic pride.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai  

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Oooh, look a Frankenstein blog.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Spoiler:

I think you may have your Frankenstein's confused there, Hec. The end of the Bride has Jennifer Beals and Clancy Brown heading off together. Sting (as the baron) was the villain of the piece.

I think your thinking of Frankenstein: the True Story which was a TV miniseries in the 70s. The cast included James Mason. It was one of the few versions to end in the arctic, like the book, but it was hardly faithful. Mason was the villain in the movie, a Dr. Polidori, who blackmailed Victor into continuing with his "monster" building.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Trust Frankenbuddha to know his Frankenstein movies.

But does he know his Buddha movies?

I know the movie Tommy.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Yeah, I'm way behind in my knowledge of film of French Black people, or more specifically, French Black musical artists.
