I think we should recount, I think there were some hanging chads.
And while you're at it, I'll put in 16 more votes for Sense and Sensibility.

So help me...if this is a bashing comment about Sense and Sensibility, I will hunt you down, sit on you, and read you Jane Austen exerpts until you speak the era's native language! I LOVE SENSE AND SENSIBILITY!!!
:)
By the way... Hey, Del! Did you put Last of the Mohicans into the running? It is two hours of AWESOMENESS! The music is great, the cinematography is stupendous...and watching Daniel Day-Lewis impersonate a Native American is DEFINITELY time well spent.
(Swoon...)
Hmmm.... but that's coming from someone who LOVES sense and sensibility...
j/k J.wo :)
Came across your site via a link from another SBTS student's and would like to add "Secondhand Lions" and "Ocean's Eleven".
Del,
Check out the post I put up about Victoria's Secret.
Del, what's your opinion of "Bend It Like Beckham" ?
Jen,
Last of the Mohicans is a pretty good movie. It has been a while. I need to watch it again.
Anon,
I liked Bend It Like Beckham but I like to affectionately refer to it as My Big Fat Hindu Wedding. It is not really about Beckham at all and sometimes not that much about soccer. But, it is okay. I do own it. If you want to see a good soccer movie, watch Fever Pitch (the original) from which they adapted the new baseball movie. It was originally a book written by Nick Hornsby I think. His whole life revolves around this soccer team (Arsenal) and when they are losing, his life is not going well. He remembers events in his life landmarked by Arsenal games.
OK....I guess it's too late to vote, but I'm checking out blogs and came upon yours....so....I would have voted for "Shawshank Redemtion!" Great movie!!!
By the way....my wife and I are full time IMB missionaries in Albania! If you want to know how I found your blog....then check mine out and I'll tell you :-)
