There is a movie on CBS this Sunday night that is a classic example of this
type of thing.  It's called _Grave Secrets: The Legacy of Hilltop Drive_.  It's
one of those 'true' haunted house things about a case here in Houston.  For
anyone who's *ever* been in Houston, it's laughable!  They've got this house
set up on a hill with a view, there are mountains in the background and *cactus*
of all things!  HEY! Hollywood!  Houston's *flat* and *wet* with an elevation
of about 30 feet above sea level!  From a fourth story window you can see from 
horizon to horizon (that's what it takes to get above the trees).  It's actually
a rather nice view; a sea of trees with buildings rising out of them...but not 
a mountain or cactus in sight!  :-)

Hai! This is one of my favorite movies of all time--"Tampopo" (meaning
dandelion--I think. The flower you blow on with the white fluffy stuff
that Opus likes so much).

According to _Roger Ebert's Movie Home Companion_, Tampopo is rated 4
stars on a 4-star scale! Details follow:

No MPAA rating, 117 minutes, made 1987.

Stars: Tsutomu Yamazaki (Ooro), Nobuko Miyamoto (Tampopo [Dandelion]),
Koji Miyamoto (man in white suit), Ken Watanabe (Gun), Rikiya Yasuoka
(Pisken), Kinzo Sakura (Shohei). Directed by Juzo Itami and produced
by Itami, Yasushi Tamaoki and Seigo Hosogoe. Screenplay by Itami.

Some descriptions from Ebert (paraphrased):
	"Tampopo is one of those utterly original movies that seem to
exist in no known category."
	"....Humor, it is said, is universal. Most times it is not.
The humor that travels best, I sometimes think, is not 'universal'
humor at all, but humor that grows so specifically out of one culture
that it reaches other cultures almost by seeming to ignore them...And
this very, very Japanese movie, which seems to make no effort to
communicate to other cultures, is universally funny almost for that
reason. Who cannot identify with the search for the perfect noodle?
Certain any American can, in the land of sweet corn festivals,
bake-offs and contests for the world's best chili."

Mmmmm, I'm getting hungry for ramen noodles! The movie was so great I
was rolling on the floor. :)

Maybe he really cared for her?  He wanted the house to go to someone who truely
loved it?  She reminded him of his late wife?  He knew that's what his wife
really wanted?

I think her charm was genuine, but she certainly knew how to manipulate a
situation.  Not in a spiteful way, but just to make things happen as she
thought they should.

Why did she want to marry Wilcox?  Her parents died, she knew Helen would drift
from her, she had no one else really.  She was at an age in Edwardian society
where it was almost too late to marry.  She felt a close kinship and bond with
Mrs.Wilcox.  She knew there are many types of people that make society tick,
and the movers and builders like Wilcox are an important part.  She wanted to 
settle into a life that she could enjoy.  It was her last chance to have a
stable family...  Take your pick.  I think it was a bit of each.  :^)

Did she love him?  Maybe not.  But I think she cared for him, and was happy 
being married to him.  I also think she made him a better person.

Yes, but I'm told John Derek did the same thing in an earlier film.
Rather than studying the 'ouevre' of Derek I thought I check to see if
anyone else had seen the earlier use of the same motif- I'm being
generous to call it a motif, I know.

    Well, I agree spot on with what you said - the violence _is_ startling -
the siege scene is particularly horrific. A lot of the images from this film
burned into my brain, and I left the theatre feeling drained and dazed.

    The Australian "Oscars" are called the AFI (Australian Film Institute)
awards. It has been nominated for 6 - being a member of the AFI, I get to

Ah, I can only remember this one well.  And I'm afraid I can't tell this
as well as Ian Watson could, but here goes...

Seems Kubrick had just bought a beautiful new white Mercedes-Benz, with a
large custom-made sunroof above the PASSAGERS seat (for leaning out and
seeing things).  At this time was going thru a phase of drawing total
sustenance from hamburgers (before he decided it was cruelty to cows,
that came later) and he was just being driven rather fast (he likes speed
in a car) to the set of FULL METAL JACKET by his faithful driver, Carlos.
After he had finished his 'burger, he had large amounts of rather messy
paper his chef had packed the burger in.  The sun roof.  He tries to throw
the wadded ball of papers out of the hole, and the airflow above the car
unravels it and whips everything back in, covering him with leftover
ketchup, mustard and mayo.

"Carlos, this car is NO DAMN GOOD!"
And he buys another car, without the DAMN sun roof.
