   You're kidding! "Love & Death", the movie-parody of Tolstoy and other Russian   
   authors, takes elements from Tolstoy? I'm simply shocked! Next you'll be   
   telling   
   me that there were science-fiction movies before "Sleeper"!   
      
   A Woody Allen movie stealing from Bergman? What are the odds? Again, shocked I   
   tell you........ SHOCKED!

   Never mind that! Did you know that there was a movie called "Airport '75"   
   BEFORE   
   "Airplane"? I mean, WHO KNEW?????
