One that immediately springs to mind- The long good Friday.
Over to you lot.

10 is one of my favourite films.
Bit of a nugget.
The aftermath of his dentistry work is very good comedy.

I liked Goodwin's Luftwaffe March, done exactly how the Germans would have done it

Was that not the one where Walton wrote the whole score and when he turned up for the premiere found that almost all of it was taken out except the bit accompanying a dog fight?
