They've found the first thirty minutes of Alfred Hitchcock's first credited film (he was the writer, editor, AD) in an archive in New Zealand. Also discovered there were a film by an early female director and a fragment of a lost 1914 Keystone Kops short.

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.

...and the complete works of Colin McKenzie.

Hah! That was my first thought.
I'm watching "Home Movies" and I just recognized Albinoni's Adagio in one of the movies. I know they're referencing some classic scene but all I'm coming up with is Rollerball. What's the other movie that uses Adagio for melodramatic effect?
The most famous use of it in film is probably for the last scene of Gallipoli: [link]
Whereas the Barber = Platoon.
Thanks, guys. It must be Gallipoli I'm thinking of. Don't want to watch that again.
It's the one movie that makes me regret being unable to get past the Crazy to re-watch. The rest of Gibson's career I can ignore without a twinge of regret.
