One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. I hadn't seen it in many years. What a great movie.

Watching The Happening right now! First time since watching it in theaters.
I just did the math for the thing were in the jeep the girl was asked, "If i gave you 1 penny on the first day, 2 on the second, 4 on the third, and just kept doubling it, after one month, how much money would you have?"
He says over $10 million i believe

And what I got was (after 30 days) $10,737,418.32
31 days - $21,474,836.56

I'm probably wrong but oh well. I was bored

Most of the Hollywood films nowadays lack the sophistication it once held in the industry.
Brilliant. Wow... very well put, Ans! You've gotten it. Hadn't thought of it from that angle. Now that I think of it... all my fav actors are from stage... the ones mentioned, Tom Wilkinson, Kevin Spacey, all the Ians (Holm, McKellan, Bannen, there's another I'm leaving out), Michael Gambon, Brian Cox, John Hurt, Bill Nighy, Gary Oldman, Jim Broadbent, the Feinnes crew, many Irish actors (too many to name... Colm Meany being one of the best from the IR Nat'l Theatre) & several American Broadway actors I always see in "bit parts" & know are from the theatre by listening to the movie's commentary. (Note: The George Clooney film "Michael Clayton" has a handful of great US stage actors... specifically one who plays his cop brother & the lad in the beginning of the movie who was involved in the hit & run. I've seen both on stage... brilliant.)

Even Al Pacino is a great stage actor... I could tell you stories via friends who praise him... whether you like his movies or not, he is a great stage & movie actor... many don't know he began on stage & it is his true love, hence Shakespear in the Park each summer.

You nailed it, Ans... I'm impressed!
