    Film Recommendations

    I'm working away at the moment and so I'm getting through DVD's at a rate of knots. Do you lot have any recommendations of decent films to 'borrow' off the internet. Obviously I've prtty much done all the well known recent ones so it's the more obscure films that I'm after. Not interested in porn either as that can be got easily enough.
    Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

    I preferred version 1!

    Don't get any films from the 21st Century. Most of them are rubbish. Probably a dozen decent ones.
    films from the 20th Century. That's when filming peaked.

      One of my favorites if you can find it, is "Sea of Love" starring Al Pacino. IMO it's one of his (if not THE) best films. HTH.

        Here's my top ten list (no particular order, and subject to change but these have the highest frequency of appearance on the top 10 list):
        • Se7en
        • Fight Club
        • Leon
        • La Femme Nikita
        • The Battleship Potemkin
        • The Usual Suspects
        • Ice Cold in Alex
        • Pulp Fiction
        • Trainspotting
        • Kes


        Presumably you're BitTorrenting?

          'Office Space' Now there’s a motivator if ever I saw one.
          Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

                    I like snow white and the seven dwarfs. The X rated version that is.
