Sean Says:

- Put any five reviews you like in your F.Y.C. list.
- Do not use reviews from the previous round - you must change them every round.
- Post here to declare that you've done it. Sooner is better than later.
- Provide a spoiler warning in your post when appropriate.
- 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.
- The initiator of the next round will name the thread "FYCTH - #***" or "Sean's FYCTH - #***", "***" is one integer greater than the number of the current round. The initiator of the next round will copy this post verbatim and it will appear as the opening post of the next round, the only things that may be changed are fonts/colours and smileys (which may be removed altogether if desired) and the inviso comment after "Sean Says:".

One spoiler
for The Kite Runner for which reading was enough for me I didn't need to see the movie... far too depressing for my taste.

In the movie Entrapment, Sean Connery plays an art thief who gets romantically involved with the female insurance agent investigating the case... hm... doesn't that sound a bit like a remake of a Steve McQueen movie that was made a couple years back by an actor who also played James Bond?

In Thief, James Caan plays... you guessed it. He goes in on what is promised to be "one last job" and then is forced to keep doing jobs after that by the ringleader. Caan seeks revenge.

A very British affair - including two edited reviews seen before.

Spoilers for the fourth and fifth reviews: "The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner" -at the end of the crucial race borstal boy Colin intentionally stops before the finish line to lose the race and "The Quiller Memorandum" - in which the Nazi double agent turns out to be the love interest Inge.

NB:
Howard Johnson's is a hotel chain, for those unfamiliar with the hotels of North America.
In "The Lavender Hill Mob" the gang melt stolen gold bars into golden Eiffel Towers.
In "Victim" Melville Farr is "outed" as a homosexual by blackmail.

proportional representation


Mike Leigh’s Four Days in July (85) examines the sectarian divide in Northern Ireland when a Catholic couple & a Protestant couple in Belfast each have a baby on the so-called Glorious Twelfth.

In Anthony Zimmer (05) — a French film soon to be remade by Hollywood [yawn] as The Tourist — the eponymous master criminal constantly second guesses the police's machinations.
