Okay, because we need some levity, and because I was reminded of one of these movies by tangential mention of the subject in news of the awful floods in Australia, which yes, are terrible, but they're a wealthy country and will come out of this just fine (is that a convoluted enough dependent clause?), here are Three Movies That Will Change Your Life.
Now I know we have an insufferably hip and sophisticated audience, many of whom may already be familiar with these magna opera, but for those of you who haven't been exposed to their beauties, subtleties, and life-enhancing properties, herewith this post.
I'm loath to include clips, because I'd hate to give anything in the, er, plots away, but this is the blabbosphere, after all, where YouTube embeds are de rigeur. So I'll concede one only, and merely tell you the titles of the other two.
2. Cane Toads
3. The Wicker Man **not the 2006 remake** but the 1973 original.
First two are wacky and hilarious beyond measure, last one is anything but hilarious but brilliantly paced and will have you gasping by the end. Okay, now the promised clip (oh, and it's an excerpt where the dialogue, such as it is, has been replaced by cheesy music -- when you see the actual movie, the dialogue will enhance the film). Enjoy!
