This is a subset of the movie ratings report posted to rec.arts.movies
by Chuck Musciano on a regular basis. All films that will be shown at
the Princess in October which are on that list are shown below, in
alphabetical order. Details of the rating system, and info about 
obtaining the entire list are included at the bottom of this posting. I
have included the same list twice, once ordered by title, and once by
rating. If you prefer one or the other, I'd like to know.

     In this list, movies have been rated on a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being
good and 1 being bad.  For each movie, the total number of votes, the
average rating, and the vote distribution are shown.  New movies are indicated
by a "*" before their entry.

     The vote distribution uses a single character to represent the percentage
of votes for each ranking.  The following characters codes can appear:

     "." no votes cast        "3" 30-39% of the votes  "7" 70-79% of the votes
     "0"  1-9%  of the votes  "4" 40-49% of the votes  "8" 80-89% of the votes
     "1" 10-19% of the votes  "5" 50-59% of the votes  "9" 90-99% of the votes
     "2" 20-29% of the votes  "6" 60-69% of the votes  "*" 100%   of the votes

The full ratings list is available via anonymous FTP from penguin.gatech.edu,
in the /pub/movie directory.  Other versions of the report, listing only those
movies with a larger number of votes, are also available at this site.
