Obviously it was me with Tea and Sympathy at number 1 Glad it got a few other ballots too but it probably doesn't make it without me.

And obviously it was me with Invasion of the Body Snatchers at #4. Absolutely criminal this is outside the top 50. I wasn’t expecting a top 25 finish or anything like that but I didn’t think top 50 was asking for too much

Am shocked (happily) at Kanal outplacing Ashes and Diamonds.

Ben-Hur: The epic movie that puts all other epic movies to shame It really doesn't get enough credit. I think it's better than Gladiator and way better than Spartacus. Heston > Crowe. But both were better than Douglas who honestly I usually don't hear being cited as a great lead performance as often as the other two.
