That jumped out at me more than anything else in the May schedule.

Thats what stands out but... The Fearless Vampire Killers is Sharon Tates last film... then
Das Boot,
Judgement at Nuremburg, and the Searchers rings a bell... School Daze, Stand and Deliver... and The Executioners song... plenty to browse on this month...

I'm like millions of Americans who remember the toast scene - and nothing else.

Fay Grim :up :up: :up ½
I watched this when it first came on and tried to get my wife to watch the it the second time (she zonked out after 45 minutes). I never saw the original Henry Fool, so I think I need to hit NetFlix ot the Library to see if they have it. This movie was a little goofy with the "Batman" style of slanted camera shots, but by the time it ended, you had been drawn into the lives of these people and how everything they knew was based on faulty assumptions. Sure, there might be a little "DaVinci Code" in it, but hasn't that been true of any cypher-based movie in the past 50 years?

I don't know that HDNet Movies will show Fay Grim any more this month, and it is not in any of our local movie theaters as of yet, but if you like spy thrillers, I recommend it!
