Searching for Sugarman
The fascinating story of American Singer Rodriguez.
Not famous in his native America but unbeknownst to him a massive star in South Africa & Australia.

Great music as well.

The Big Bus. Disaster movie about a nuclear powered double decker bus. Enjoyable spoof that pre-dates Airplane! by about five years.

I watched this upon Chip and SootyJ's recommendation and thought it was ok. Not quite as sharp as Airplane, but a decent enough watch. Not sure I'd revisit though.

He says he's killed someone (not sure if it's someone you see him kill) but at end turns out he's just been away on holiday, not dead. Something like that. As I say, it's been years so I can't remember properly, but I remember being left with the idea that some of it at least was in his head.

Yes. It turns out he didn't even live in his flat. He's just very disturbed, which his secretary discovers when she reads his diary.

I feel my words have let you down, Ben. Although I'd agree it's certainly not in Airplanes league.

Just reminded me that I need to add her to the 'Who Do You Fancy' thread.

That would make a mockery of American Psycho II: All American Girl, which is about the daughter of someone slaughtered by Patrick Bateman. It features William Shatner.

Frozen. Decent little thriller about three friends trapped on a ski lift with no hope of rescue. A bit like Open Water, but with hypothermia and wolves instead of drowning and sharks.

Are you sure you didn't just watch that episode of Not Going Out?

I thought you were joking - zooo humour - then I Googled and discovered there is a ski lift episode! I'm guessing nobody was torn to pieces by snow wolves, though. :(

zooo humour always makes sense!

How did the wolves get in a ski lift?

Pff! It was this ski lift. The wolves were underneath. Wandering and slavering.

Oh, that kind of ski lift. I thought it would be a nice little enclosed one like in James Bond.

Which Bond film was that? I remember one in Columbo.

OHMSS

I could be getting it mixed up with a Bourne film or something.

But I have a feeling there was one with Jaws, and he bit one of the wires...?
