No, you miss the movie doing that. I’ve held hands, though.

13. Name a movie that you keep meaning to see but just haven't yet got around to it.
“United 93”. We’ve had it for ages, but I just haven’t a) been in the mood and b) worked up the nerve to watch it.

14. Ever walked out of a movie?
ALMOST left “Vanilla Sky”. But it ended just as I was thinking about leaving. Thank God.

15. Name a movie that made you cry in the theater.
Gads, loads-but the one I CANNOT ever watch again –on telly or anywhere else- is “Stark Trek II, the Wrath of Khan”. (How embarrassing was that?!) I bawled watching the end of that. Then saw ET the next day and it didn’t do anything for me.

Not in this country; in the States, yes.

Love most of Terry Gilliam’s stuff. Take your pick.

Remember laughing so hard I cried watching “The Gods Must Be Crazy” the first time I saw that.
