They all sound fantastic. I didn't know there were two version so TKOACB. I guess the other one is where the Chinese bookie keeps coming back, Terminator style, and he has to crush him in a pneumatic industrial press?
I really love the Melville film about the priest, staring Jean-Paul Belmondo. One of the truly great examples of casting against type.
Thanks for the Cassavetes box set tip, although it's far from a complete set of his films. It's also worth pointing out that the same set is around $100 on Amazon.com.
With rather serendipitous timing, LoveFilm have just launched their streaming service. I'll check it out this evening and report back.
Edit: FYI, the site is listing 3,141 films available on the service. So, like Netflix, it's a lot less than their DVD catalogue, but it's pretty sizeable. I haven't dug through the list yet, though, so they could all be rubbish.
Not necessarily an out and out bargain, but I have used a fairly new site called Price Minister that's similar to Amazon Marketplace in that it's a way for small to medium sellers to sell DVDs (and lots of other stuff) without creating their own website.
Anyway, I say this because having used them (with no problems at all), they offer you the chance to recommend the site to others, and they get £5 off their first order over a tenner (and so do I), so at least the first order is likely to be a bargain. So, if you want an invite, drop me a PM with your email address, and I'll recommend you.
