One of the posters on Talk of the Villages is the niece of Ann Bancroft and Mel Brooks. She did not seem very impressed with Hollywood. I have had very mixed feelings about my interactions with them over the past 35 years .

but you gotta love Mel!!!! :BigApplause:

I have had various interactions with various movie stars and they would usually just dodge, excuse or push off to someone else. But not always. This was usually about my 224 613 Project which has been about improving access to useful materials in all types of libraries for survivors/victims of crimes. Much progress has been made though from what I could find in Reno libraries in late February of 1976. I found next to nothing.

Writing on someone else's art seemed to happen when the guy behind me at the Petaluma theater asked me "Did you see that ?" when 612 showed up in the movie Outbreak on a test tube. I looked for the guys while leaving the Northern CA theater but did not see them . This was around March 14, 1995.

Not the best, but these are just my personal favorites:

Close Encounters of the Third Kind
Star Trek: The Voyage Home
Elf
Christmas Vacation
August Rush
Somewhere in Time
Silent Running
Brokeback Mountain
Airplane
Ted

Silent Running.
Absolute classic.
One of the best/funniest scenes, Huey, Dewey, and Louie cheating at cards.
I still worry how Dewey is getting on watering the surviving plants!

Huge favorite of one of my supervisors at the U of MN Law Library. She was paying for private Lakota lessons. She was over the moon when it won various Academy Awards. Good people there for the most part with a few extremely ambitious exceptions.

Panic in the year zero! It’s amazing. Filmed in the 50s or 60s. I’m not gonna give away anything else you have to watch it.
