#15 is Adaptation

And damn it, I saw #1 but the name is stuck. It'll jolt me awake some time after midnight and I will curse the name Schwartz.

5. "Have you got a cop called Vodka?"

I bet this is from Hard-Boiled, which is kinda unfair, inasmuch as it's line in translation. (Also, your icon usage gives you away!)

Right on all counts :-) I thought about the translation issue, but in the end I decided I didn't care and included three foreign flicks anyway.

And come to think, #7 sounds like Rushmore.

I don't know about the other foreign films.

Heh. I love those movies! I might be the only one who still has ED2 on laserdisc--it's blood red! Some guy made a video about it though, so he probably still has his. Why do people make these videos?

TWO Guillermo del Torro movies on the list! Awesome. Have you seen The Orphanage? Sadly, I have not. Looooved Pan's Labyrith. One of the most beautiful movies I've seen in a long time.

Yes: he is a fave of mine. I have not seen The Orphanage as yet, and may not until it's out on DVD. But yeah: Pan's Labyrinth blew my mind.

In the scene where they are viewing the Yoyodyne "yellow file" showing photo ID's of all the "John's"... is John Parrot John Cleese? It looks like him to me, but I wanted to find others who have seen this recently and might know what I'm talking about here....
