well, i'd prefer to watch Hepburn & Grant in _Bringing Up Baby_; and i
think Stewart is better when he's not *just* being nice (it's more
interesting if there are complications) - especially in _The Man from
Laramie_, also _Vertigo_.  whereas 8½ is clearly Fellini's best film.
so 8½ is better.

OTOH, i've never seen more than a minute or 2 of Buffy, so i can't
really compare it to anything.
