Can I add another one to best movie endings? Hasn't been mentioned yet ... "Gallipoli". With Mel Gibson running desperately through the front line at the WWI Turkish battlefield with a commander's message to cease the Aussies' advance to certain death and his best friend among those next to go. When he doesn't make it in time to prevent the next advance, the result is truly heartbreaking. The music, the mood, the anguish, his friend's litany, "What are your legs? Springs. Steel springs ..." My sister and I watch this movie every time we need a good cry.

I agree with "The Usual Suspects" comment, which brings up another possible article....movies you need to see at least twice in order to really get them (and you enjoy them almost more the subsequent times). I'm not talking about crazy outlandish plots, but more the kind that leave you thinking "I've gotta see that again now that I know what I know!"

Daily Horoscope for June 2

Sagittarius

You're feeling ultra optimistic today, which is great for summoning up the necessary energy to do what has to be done. But don't let it go to your head and convince you that you're capable of performing miracles. If you aren't behaving in this way you'll have to cope with someone who has a swollen head and thinks they're the cat's whiskers.
