                    Not seen any of them and only heard of a couple.

                    Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

                    Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

                      I'd have to ask how old were the critics, the newst film was 1968?, to me that says, its been a while since they sat down to watch a film!

                      Top 10 of anything is always subjective, as your opinion will be biased based on your preferred genre.
                      I'm only here cos I got on the wrong bus.

                        Not always. I don't like children. I don't like musicals. How come I can't watch Bugsy Malone without smiling? A lot.

                              Has anyone seen the film Hard Candy?

                              It is incredible and it does surprise me it rarely gets a look in.

                              If you have not seen please give it a go! You will not be disappointed!
