I actuallly like the movie discussion. I think movies like
Chinatown or The Conversation should be considered just as as
integral to the genre as many of the books we discuss.
As for Wm Ahearn, I think he has to be much mature before he
is allowed back. Even at the height, or should I say depth,
of our discussions of Altman's Long Goodbye none of us found
it neccesary to resort to personal attacks. Mark
