I'm happy to switch my my to Wings of Desire or Au revoir, les enfants, if either can gain some momentum.

If you haven't seen Au revoir, les enfants, Red Sorghum, or Withnail and I, your vote should be stricken.

I've seen all three, but my vote remains with Where Is the Friend's Home? ... for now.

Just to clarify:  You've seen it?

Just to clarify, part two:  The Shining is awful.
