Well, Zawmer, sometimes you've called yourself Zawmer Baba, and sometimes Zawmer the Baba. I have tried to email you a few times -- and they came back undelivered. As far as your top tens go. They are nice lists. I haven't seen The Abyss since it's original release, and I suppose I should try to sit through the two-day director's cut. Shawshank is on everyone's list, except certainly not mine. Raising Arizona is one of my least favorite Coens.

Well acted: Citizen Kane? You damn right. Ray Collins, Joseph Cotten, everybody's wonderful. And Alan Ladd! Glengarry Glen Ross, of course. Once Around I haven't seen. Don't know if I can make it. Email me back with an address I can reply to! Is Zawmer Baba your real name?
