I also like the classical music in Barry Lyndon. It perfectly enhances the mood throughout the movie. Speaking of glorious cinematography, I recall reading that they had to develop special wide-aperture lenses for that movie in order to shoot the candlelight scenes without movie lights.

I think Bruce should charge 100% commission for any poster that sell for $9 or less, since that is his estimated cost of selling a poster. Anyone who consigns a poster that sells for less than $3 should be required to buy him lunch. I think I owe him a free lunch. -rk On Feb 5, 2009, at
