FOUR YOUR CONSIDERATION - TREASURE HUNT

Sean says: "The time has come, the Walrus said... "
Put any five reviews you like in your F.Y.C. list.
The only rule is to not use the ones from the previous round - you must change them every round.
Post here to declare that you've done it. Sooner is better than later.
You must read the F.Y.C.s of all participants.
The next round starts on Monday or Thursday at 6:00 a.m. FWFR time, whichever comes next.

"Felix in Hollywood" is a unique Felix the Cat short that a characture of Charlie Chaplin has a brief cameo.

The "Wandering Jew" is a poetic characterization of the Jewish diaspora before the creation of the State of Israel.

Stuff


You vant hints, I got hints, but as they may be considered spoilers they're in tasteful beige:
The Fountain: Jackman plays Creo which means I create in Latin; famous saying = "I think therefore I am"; Creo's married to Iz, who dies and is resurrected in his thoughts.

Last King of Scotland: Forest Whittaker plays Idi Amin, whose brutal regime endorsed torture by chopping people's limbs off.

Creo is not Latin for "I think". That's (C)ogito, and "I think therefore I am" is thus "Cogito Ergo Sum."

Creo is Latin for "I create"; and the latter word is derived, not that surprisingly, from the former.

sinh stands for the mathematical function hyperbolic sine and is often pronounced "shine".

One of the reviews follows from these.

Pleasure; and I've just voted for the review in question: it's clever.
