    I voted for it although I've only seen it once and thought it was just ok. Don't understand the hype for it.

    Although it did spawn one of my all-time favorite gifs that I use all the time.

    Hearts are tough, she said, most times hearts don't break, and I'm sure that's right . . . but what about then? What about who we were then? What about hearts in Atlantis?

    That might be one that deserves a rewatch for you. There's a lot going on in that film and I know a lot of people thought they were getting a heist film and that's not what Reservoir Dogs is.

    I've never seen Mighty Aphrodite, but I actually just found it on laserdisc at Savers last week.

    I will try. I have a certain indifference to Woody Allen and his films.
