A package from the UK: 2 by Lubitsch: Desire & Angel; Coppola juvenilia: Dementia 13; and Shanghai Express. Watched Dementia last night -- they restored a few scenes and the plotline makes a little more sense, but many exteriors are still overexposed -- don't suppose there's much you can do about that. The Fox Murnau/Borzage box is on its way. Shaping up as a good Christmas after all. |

Picked up The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emporer. My nephew hasn't seen either of the first two movies. So we'll be watching them first. |

Well, taking advantage of the rotten economy to shop at a going-out-of-business DVD/book sale, I picked up an Arthur Treacher double-feature of Thank You Jeeves (1936) and Step Lively, Jeeves (1937, and alas, they didn't come with fish 'n' chips) and the blu-ray 7th Voyage of Sinbad. |

A copy of the 1977 prison flick Short Eyes arrived in the mailbox today. I picked it up at half.com for, as The Great One once said, "a mere bag of shells." |

I know its not a man thing, but I had to get the Kelly Brook and Flavia Cacace workout DVD. I've got most of the others that are hot. I guess I must seem a little strange. |

I picked up National Treasure 2 and A Very British Gangster. The gangster flick is about one of the UK's biggest and most violent firms, the Noonan gang from Manchester. Can't wait to see it. |
