I like "Brief Encounter", simple and very moving.

"Munity on the Bounty" is exactly the type of movie I avoid. Between the 35 and 62 version, I would pick the latter only because of Brando. I don't know, maybe I will give it a shot some time.

"curiouser and curiouser" Yes! So you've read the book? I've read it once. Also, "Through the Looking Glass". They are both dazzling, charmimg stories.

I have the books but haven’t read them. I have seen the Walt Disney cartoon umpteen times though. When I bought the books almost 2 decades ago from a used book store, there was a pushy condescending lady working there. She seemed judgemental of me that I wanted Alice and I think I was also after a nice collection of Hans Christian Anderson fairy tale stories with lovely illustrations. I had just seen the NZ Campion film An Angel At My Table - 91’ and there was a fairy tale book featured in that and I wanted one similar. The illustrations had a gauze page over each one in the film. She then was telling me to go for something like Treasure Island instead. How dare she undermine me. I did end up getting that too though as it was a nice looking book, but she was being a bag trolling me.

I also like The Bounty - 84, with Gibson and Hopkins.

What a cooz! That lady's attitude had absolutely no business in the workplace. If she caught me at the wrong time, I might have asked her if she could recommemd any good books about cannibalistic serial killers. What a twat.

I've never seen The Bounty - 84. Totally flew under my radar. And knowing now how Braveheart ends, I will never watch that movie. Ever.

Maybe some day I will watch "Dances with Wolves", though.
