Best documentary of all time!! In Search of the Trojan War (1985):
http://www.amazon.com/Search-Trojan-War ... B0001KL5BW
I don't know if it's been mentioned yet on this thread, but I just dug it out and re-watched it last couple of days (for the 100th time, at least).
Treated as a mystery to be solved, rather than a dry statement of facts, Wood was so erodite in this series that he actually changed the accepted conclusions of the experts on Troy. Specifically about who the Hittite's were refering to in their records (it
was the Greeks - which means there really was a Trojan War) and about which level actually was the Troy of the Iliad (the royal VI - not the shabby VIIa).

I have never seen it. You have piqued my interest.

When I lived in Huntington Beach, Abbotts infamous gangbanger crew used to give me crap for dating a Hindu woman. I even tried to parlay their logic by citing that at least shes an Aryan but to no avail. They made serious threats so when Tank got his azz kicked by my boy, Vitor Belfort I considered it to be poetic justice! [:D]
UFC- Vitor Belfor vs Tank Abbott

Watched The Peacemaker last night. Not a bad action flick. I actually liked Clooney in a role for once. Plus, Nicole Kidman was (sigh).....

....and it didn't. Good film [:)]. Tucci and particularly Spacey are always good value - but what accent was Paul Bettany trying to pull off??

What Women Want.
Did this really come out 13 years ago? [X(]
Well, I finally bothered to actually watch it and what a totally unexpected pleasure it proved to be..a thoroughly watchable, feel-good film and, as much as I detest Mel Gibson, he proves just what a fine, versatile actor he is.
Helen Hunt looked nice too [:)]
