	1970s in film - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Movies in the 1970s came in a wide variety, as the socially-conscious young directors that emerged in the late '60s grew in different directions, influenced by music, literature, and the nature of crime and war.
		The decade is most notable for excelling in the crime drama and horror genres.
		A pivotal moment in movies was the 1975 release of Steven Spielberg's first major hit, Jaws, widely regarded as the birth of the blockbuster motion picture (a trend sealed two years later with the release of Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope.

	Columbine High School massacre - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Several of the victims who were believed to have been killed for their religious beliefs became a source of inspiration to others, notably Christians, and led some to lament the decline of religion in public education and society in general.
		He was later removed from the list of suspects after several witnesses confirmed that he had left Columbine prior to the actual massacre and was spotted being away from the school as the massacre unfolded.
		Another movie that relates to the Columbine massacre is Dawn Anna, a story about Lauren Townsend's mother and her life, including her struggles with cancer which culminate with the death of her daughter in the massacre.

	The List of Railway Movies
		The list was last modified on March 2, 1997; it was last posted on December 5, 1995, on that occasion to uk.railway, misc.transport.rail.americas, misc.transport.rail.europe, and misc.transport.urban-transit.
		Movies of less than feature length (say 75 minutes, or somewhat less for older films) are also excluded; for example, Buster Keaton's 1965 film "The Railrodder", and the famous 1936 British doc- umentary "Night Mail", are both shorts and so not listed.
		It is not a list of realistic movies about trains; I'm not qualified to evaluate all the technical details, but I can certainly say that many of the films have serious flaws in their depiction of railways.

		This list is just meant to show the interested ones the movies in which leading ladies and gents have been shown on their bare feet.
		During the movie, young Marina (played by Sara Noel Herring) and adult Marina (Demi Moore) are shown barefoot, whereas the adult version turns to wearing shoes in the middle of the film, which she buys without even trying them, since she knows, that they will fit.
		However, disaster strikes again, as a family of apes stumbles into the treehouse, and in the ensuing panic, the human parents are killed.

	Guardian Unlimited Film \| Features \| 40 best directors
		With these two movies, Payne has established an auteur distinctiveness: amplifying the disappointment and regret lurking within the peppy, can-do civic culture of middle America, while acknowledging the sweetness and innocence that is still there.
		His movies are powerful, poetic, often severe, and at their most accessible when they meditate on the nature of Russia.
		His latest movie, Father And Son, is an enigmatic and often baffling study of a father-son relationship between two soldiers.

	List of science fiction films - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This is a list of science fiction films organised chronologically.
		The tone of science fiction films is often a guide to the tone of the times the film was made: other worlds and species are viewed in turn as wonderful, terrifying, threatening, incomprehensible, and childishly benign.
		The following list of science fiction films include a number that are notable and a large number that are considered mediocre, including quite a few that have been listed among the worst movies ever made, or have won one or more Golden Raspberry Awards.

		By the weekend of 27-29 June 1997, "Anaconda" had slithered to #20 in the box office list, with a slender $200,000 gross on 200 screens ($1,028 average) for a cumulative gross of $61,600,000 in its 12th week.
		Like all movie monsters, it has perfect timing and always bursts into the frame just when the characters are least expecting it.
		This is perhaps the most perfect movie ever made in the "Space Opera"genre, but raised to a higher level by an impeccable sense of comic timing.

		The list was last modified on December 5, 1995; it was last posted on October 6, 1995, on that occasion to misc.transport.rail.americas and rec.arts.movies.past-films.
		The list is restricted to what I like to call Railway Movies of the First Kind: those where the railway aspect can be considered one of the most important elements in the movie.
		This is not a list of good movies about trains; that would be too subjective to be useful.

		Though this is the first I'm hearing of the idea, it's apparently something of a trend, complete with overactive fan base (with way too much time on their hands) and even software to aid in synchronization.
		For a good horror movie, everything needs to be there, including the writing (important for any movie, but horror films usually require a little more imagination), the characters, the acting, the cinematography, and the music, amongst many other aspects.

	Catholic Online - Arts & Entertainment
		A strong contender for most irresponsible movie of the year, "The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift" (Universal), is little more than a glossy 98-minute commercial for reckless driving.
		Having already set the standard for computer-animated entertainment with movies such as "Toy Story," "Monsters, Inc." and "Finding Nemo," Pixar continues to raise the bar with "Cars"(Disney), a delightful, family-friendly film with a full tank of humor and emotion that is likely to leave its summer competition in the dust.
		But that all changes when she kisses Jake (Chris Pine) -- a lightning rod for disaster — at a masquerade ball where they magically swap fortunes with a kiss, giving them a taste of life on the opposite end of the luck spectrum.

	AlterNet: The Ten Best Top-Ten Lists
		Top 10 lists are a staple of a culture obsessed with ranking things, yet in recent years the ubiquitous best-movie, -book and -music lists have become so baffling it seems as though their only goal is to eclipse the Top 10 lists of other critics.
		Topping the list of most commonly reported birds of 2005 is the northern cardinal.
		The definitive list doesn't actually exist yet, because, as baby-name bigwig Laura Wattenberg writes on her blog, "Baby naming is the kind of business where you write your 'year in review' articles in May." However, this Top 10 Baby Names of 2005 list identifies the year's likely naming trends.

	SPLICEDwire \| "Dancer in the Dark" review (2000)
		Musicals never have quite the same impact on the small screen, and this one may be even more affected by shrinking it because it's small and personal, not big and bold like a Broadway adaptation.
		"Evita" went big, "My Best Friend's Wedding" sneaked musical numbers into its semi-standard romantic comedy, the "South Park" movie mocked the cartoon musical while besting it with genuinely catchy tunes, "Love's Labour's Lost" was an homage to the Fred and Ginger sing-songs of the 1930s.
		But no one has succeeded in making a truly modern movie musical, one that employs emerging filmmaking techniques instead of reaching back 50 years for inspiration.
