Pierce Brosnan - James Bond series

This would be a valid pick wouldn't it? Or should I name a film?

Any tips?  I was looking for something that would just rip a selected clip from a DVD, but couldn't find anything.  Since I didn't want to rip entire DVDs and then edit down a massive video file, I just went the easy YouTube route.

I mentioned the free DVD Shrink and even posted an easy tutorial about 2 months ago.  You don't need to rip the entire DVD or entire film.  After selecting the movie file (without ripping it) and isolating the clip in the edit browser, it takes about 1-2 seconds (maybe even less than a second) to capture and save a 2 minute clip from a film.

Apart from the performances not being any good?

Yeah I understand if you're not comfortable exploring this, but I've always been very curious about how sexuality plays into your movie experiences (see also: Monica Bellucci, Sasha Grey, and a pedophile character at #1).  I always feel weird asking about it, but I can't help wondering if there are some unresolved (or who knows, maybe resolved) issues there.

Oh look if the answer is some sort of "personal" thing maybe it would be best not explored. I feel like I need a wash now.
