You got 2 out of 5, so I thought it's confirmed you're doing vowels. Is "Y" a vowel now...? :stars:
In french it is ;D

In German it's the longest letter... We pronounce it "ypsilon" :-\

:hmmmm: Seems you could do a marathon out of that :laugh:

Waterhole #3 (1967)  95m

Directed by William Graham
Cast: James Coburn, Carroll O'Connor, Claude Akins, Timothy Carey, Harry Davis, Bruce Dern
Balladeer: Roger Miller

This is a satirical western involving stolen army gold and the various people who are after it including conman Coburn, sheriff O'Connor (and his daughter), army deserter Akins and others.  And just when you think you know who's going to wind up with it, there's another twist in the storyline.  At the very end, we still aren't shown who winds up with the loot as one last chase has begun and "The End" shows up on the screen...you get to make your own decision who winds up with the gold.  Throughout the movie, there is a song that goes on, a ballad sung by Roger Miller.  I enjoyed that, but I've always liked his music...someone who isn't crazy about that kind of music might not be as appreciative as I.  Overall, I enjoyed the film...it's not quite your normal western.   ;D

  Title  Director  Rating 
J  Henry & June (1990)  Philip Kaufman 

It is remarkable how Kaufman could succeed so greatly in making an erotically charged movie with "The Unbearable Lightness of Being" and then come up with such utter trite only two years later.

Good grief.  :suicide:

Well done, Pete! Have you ever thought of doing one of those TV marathons they occasionally do screenings for? Like an entire season of X-Files in one day. :whistle:

While I have done it before... I find it to be a bit difficult. Usually I need at least 2 days for a TV Series. Unless it is a short season.
