Hello Bob!

 BR>> Personally it reminded me a lot of the movie Clue, which
 BR>> is one of my favorites.  I enjoyed it and was able to
 BR>> overlook some of the niggley bits... as you call them.
 BR>> Its an entertaining film.

 AA> I may have seen that one in the theatre way back in 1985 or
 AA> so.  Didn't they play all 3 alternate endings too - if you
 AA> stayed after the credits?  According the wikipedia, they
 AA> played one of three randomly.

 AA> Clue might be a fun to rewatch. Thanks for mentioning it.


I decided to give Clue a try last night. It was almost how I  
remembered it, but it proved to me that I probably did not enjoy  
it too much the first time to leave lasting memories.   
Apparently, I forgot a lot about it the first time.

Some of the lines were really funny. I really liked the scene  
where they are guessing how many bullets have already been used.  
"That's 1 + 2 + 1 + 1..,  No, that's 1 + 2 + 2 + 1.."

It was a rather cleaver and complex mystery with several possible  
outcomes - apparently.  The film had all alternative endings.

I was stunned by Leslie Anne Warren and her resemblance to Susan  
Sarandon.  I wasn't sure which actress I was looking at.

The film, although entertaining, reinforced my notion that actors  
are simply getting paid far too much for the one-time thing that  
they do.
