Any comments on "They're a Wierd Mob" (1966)? I've never seen it, but I'm tempted to get it on DVD. Thanks, Barbara [Non-text portions of this message have...

There are some parts of it that are a bit cringe-inducing to modern eyes but most modern Australians are willing to forgive even those. It was even chosen as...
Dear Steve and Wim, Many thanks for the comments. I'm fast becoming a PnP compleatist (hah! I don't own that many), so I think I'll get it. The Australian...
There are Australian DVD of some of the classics like TRS, ToB & PT but they're much the same as the versions available elsewhere. But what they do have that...

Well that's a very good recommendation - to stay away from her books :) It's like some people have been known to reject potential partners just because they...

I wonder how many she's actually seen? There seem to be a few that are on the list because she was told to include them. How many others are there because she...
A few weeks ago she mentioned in her column that she spent 6 months of the year in London and 6 months in Belfast. She stated that they were both part of Great...
The Set Up for a start has no Robert Mitchum in it. It stars Robert Ryan. Very fine actor by the way, one of my American favorites. A very good film to see...
I went to the showing of Black Narcissus in York yesterday. There was an audience of around 50, mixed ages, including one family. This was my first seeing of...

Er... but Robert Mitchum isn`t in "The Set Up"- it`s Robert Ryan. I`d also dispute that "The Set Up" is noir. No, Lionel it doesn`t just have to be B & W to...
