    Arlington Road needs way more votes. One of the best films of 1999.

    Arlington Road has Tim Robbins, and if you don't like him, well...you should, I guess is what I'm getting at here.

    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?

    The Addams Family, of course.
    Also voted Sleepless in Seattle and the Game. I probably should watch Arlington Road

    It has been rectified. I watched the trailer and thus have now heard of the movie.

    Yes, it's the same reason Shawshank Redemption won best movie of all-time. We're all here because we love King, and it's a great adaptation of one of his stories, so I imagine most of us love it. I wonder how they will do in the head to head competitions.
