| It cost £3.5M about US$5M, which is about as low as you can make a proper film for and not have it show. |

How much does it cost to make a film?
Somewhere between $218 (Tarnation) and $250,000,000 (Superman Returns). |

Well - sometimes you have to actually read the fine print - although I'd still like someone to verify that this isn't a special case DVD.

It's worth it, though. But I have to figure out what other DVDs to send. |

| Shannon - I saw you talking about an edit button. But I didn't see it, so I figured it showed up only after you posted. I was right. |

| Hustle and Flow. You may not guess it, but I'm not a hiphop fan. But when Terrence Howard sang "It Ain't Over For Me", I had tears. There was something about the setup - allusions to his dead father, his own dreams for something better. And, of course, Terrence Howard himself. It surprised the hell out of me, because up until then, I didn't think I was that involved. And my involvement waned later. (I could have written the last 15 minutes.) But that one scene in the bedroom studio slings Howard past Hoffman for when I vote here. It's rare moments like these that keep me watching movies. |

| Oddly, the Edit button doesn't allow you to delete, so you have to be very careful about how you revise history. |
