Film
Time Bandits/Brazil/The Adventures of Baron Munchausen Great things come/go in triplicate, at least that's word on the streets. Thank-you Sir Terry Gilliam (as if I've decided to grant myself the ability to go around beknightin' folk, right)

Hot Fuzz Law & orderly, well at least for a work from across the pond

Reign O'er Me This will do more for Post traumatic stress than medicine will explain for years, thank- you Adsam Sandler!

Flags of Our Fathers/Letters from Io Jima Even the other side has another side, or so I've read!
