Largely in English, but when it switches to Hebrew or Arabic there are subtitles, of course.
A wonderful movie....sentimental, funny, warm, clever. All wrapped into 90 minutes or so.
Netflix.
I recommend this.


Excellent movie.

Rental?

The Pink Panther Strikes Again
This is Spinal Tap

(Both movies are nothing short of comedic genius)

The scene on the parallel bars is one of the funniest moments in movie history.

3:10 to Yuma

I liked Christian Bale's character, but the overall story, and Russell Crowe's character did not seem realistic to me.

Eastern Promises - Has one of the best (and most brutal) fight scenes I've watched in a long time.

Enemy at the Gates Very gritty tale of a Russian sharpshooter during the German siege of Stalingrad. Based on a true story.

Very well done! Casting, cinematography and music were excellent IMO.
I enjoyed the movie very much.
I'm ready to go to Spain! Cool

Funny thing I did notice: Not one person held their wine glass by the stem. Good lord! Keep your hands off the bowl. Big Grin

Just got back from The Mummy 3 with my son. Glad I saw it at the second run theatre for $2. Was pretty cheesy.

Please avoid being ambiguous.
By it, are you referring to your the bowl or stem? Confused Wink

Really depends who we are talking about. ( one hand or two)

That said, I repeat, she can hold it as she damn well pleases. <empty suit razz>

Watched "Wall Street" on PBS HD last night. Haven't seen it in a while and couldn't believe it's been over 20 years already. Yet the movie's theme remains very contemporary. Classic.

That's because, primarily, the game remains the same. Wink
