Peter Lorre
Ingrid Bergman or George Sanders in Voyage in Italy?
God save our gracious ToToToToT...
God save ToToToToT, the fascist regime...
God save the Kween.
You keep using that word ("jubilee"). I do not think it means what you think it means.
UptheToToToToTRepublic!
Something about a seven-year itch...
In the purple (of indifference).
Couldn't this thread have waited for March?
Say, here's a This or That entry: this (fake) jubilee or (fake) London?
We're approaching Disney parade levels of corniness here...
What?!
Spatula! Eleven!

George Sanders
Kevin Spacey in The Usual Suspects or Russell Crowe in LA Confidential?
"I have been assured by a very knowing American of my acquaintance in London, that a young healthy child well nursed, is, at a year old, a most delicious nourishing and wholesome food, whether stewed, roasted, baked, or boiled; and I make no doubt that it will equally serve in a fricasie, or a ragoust." ~ 'A Modest Proposal' ~ Jonathan Swift
Kevin Spacey in The Usual Suspects
more tedious:
The Children's Hour
or
Julia?

The Children's Hour ETA: Oh no, I mean Julia is more tedious! And I would pick The Children's Hour to watch over Julia.
Hey, re #42 to each their own, Spacey's good, he's d**n good and he deserved BSA Oscar for The Usual Suspects, but hands down or feet up re comparing the two cited performances in respective films, GOTTA BE RUSSELL CROWE in LA Confidential!!!![]()

BTW, lest it be forgotten (heh, heh) Spacey also appeared in LA Confidential as the "flashy" detective, but Russell Crowe as the smoldering cop, Bud White, d**n near burned up the scenery and stole the movie, even from love interest, Kim Basinger, as well as from his outstanding fellow Aussie, Guy Pearce. Yeah, yep, yessiree ... Russell Crowe, back in da day!!!
I admire Kevin Spacey a lot, but it def shoulda been DENZEL Washington winning the 1999 BA Oscar as The Hurricane rather than Spacey for his role in American Beauty. IMHO!!! Even awesome Russell Crowe woulda deserved it for The Insider that same year over Kevin Spacey's good but more self-reflective and generic performance.

"Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned / Nor hell a fury like a woman scorned."
Oh thank you for that review, it was entertaining and informative. I have to go with The Last Runaway, and Paris: The Novel.
The David Sedaris book of essays, (not on your list) also sounds intriguing. Stephen King is too eerie for me. I've seen several of his movie adaptations, but I've never read any of his books, altho' I know he is a very good writer (I've read some of his reviews/ essays). And, what-up with all the YA dystopia crapola!? I know, I know ... this stuff sells like hotcakes.
