The Devils Advocate........mmmm Charlize Theron wipes drool | 1 | |
To Kill a Mockingbird. After 30 years I still have a crush on Atticus Finch. | 2 | |
Al Pacino in "and justice for all" | 3 | |
By the way, "my cousin Vinny" is a great trail movie, and the procedures followed ( preliminary hearing, discovery, etc) are follwoed pretty accurately. Even when the "surprise witness" from the FBI is admitted, Pesci's objection is accurate! | 4 | |
whats that oldie about the two cowpokes who are acused of horse stealing and are tryed and lynched and then it turns out they were innocent? | 5 | |
Remember The Night, 1940. Fred MacMurray is a Manhattan assistant DA prosecuting Barbara Stanwyck for shoplifting. One thing leads to another. Screenplay by Preston Sturgess. | 6 | |

TO KILL A MOCKING BIRD... just saw it again as part of our Book Club (after reading the book again!) Atticus Finch is a hottie (an oh-so-handsome Gregory Peck). Divine book - one of the few that made a good movie too. | 15 | |
