I wish I could actually help to answer the question that started this thread, but since I can't, I will content myself to laugh hysterically at it.

This place is awesome.

Hmm...are you sure it wasn't The Secret Garden? I had the SO peek in on this thread and she thinks it might have been. There were a couple of versions, IIRC.


BTW, she thinks we're all assholes.

[Kickaha]

Well of *course* we are... that's our *charm*...

[murbot]

Holy shit, you let your wife know about this place?

Mine would kill me if she read some of the shit I've spewed across here.

[709]

No, no. She's much too enamored with teh interweb's ability to find the latest Lacey Peterson type news...or pictures of sex offenders living within 100 miles of us.

She could care less about us...and anyways, if she got too interested I'd steer her towards some of Kickaha's C++XML>XYZ posts. That'll scare the hell out of her...or at least get a good eye roll.

You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious.

She recognized our foul stench when she was brought onboard.


How's that?

I can't think of a wise ass star wars comment to make, so I'll just try a standard wise arse comment!

Did you even try google?

... he and the governess eat dinner in the dining room, where she once saw Quint through the window. The governess asks Miles to tell her what is on his mind, but he says that he wants to talk to Luke first. Suddenly, Peter Quint appears in the window.

The governess tries to show Miles Quint in the window, then grasps the boy in her arms. After a few moments, she realizes his heart has stopped beating.

Could this be the film you're looking for?

[Gargoyle]

I was going to let you suffer for a bit or even let you practice your google skills, but I am off to get my dinner now so I'll put you out of your misery:-

A Google Search for "uncle an a letter boy lady devil" returns a number 1 hit for Turn of the screw!

Enjoy

The Force is strong with this one...

And if you strike me down, I'll become more powerful than you can imagine!

Stop it...I can't breathe...

Naughty admin!

[drewprops]

It really DOES sound like Congo.... the part just before the intelligent laser apes attack.... stupid laser apes.

The man is after the crystals and the boy knows about the crystals.

Yes it does sound like it. Is that "The Portrait of a Lady?

[Kickaha]

Maybe I'm wrong, and this is a wild shot in the dark here, but maybe, just maybe it's Turn of the Screw?

Just a wild guess, of course.

Did you even look at the links? And if you search IMDB I think the story has been made into a few films - some with some funny french names, so perhaps it is also portrait of a lady!

Would you like me to come round to your house and give you a lesson on using your mouse button? (Now I kniow why Apple decided 1 button was enough for most peeps! )

You must be psychic!!

[macgeek2006]

That Turn of the Screw made in 1999 was a tv show. How can I watch it? I don't find it anywhere!!!

[autodata]

Have you heard of amazon? Or a library? Really, kid, get it together. You are embarrassing yourself.

Look harder

IMDB --> little "SHOP for this DVD" button in the top right ---> Amazon... 62 used copies of the DVD for under 12 bucks. Even VHS.

Geez, dude... at least make a token effort.

Or you could search on P2P with equally small effort.

Been there, done that. That DVD says 2000, not 1999.

Control, control, you must learn control!

[709]

Holy Flying Fucking Spaghetti Monster...it's the same damned film. Look at the actors listed for Monster's sake. Good Spaghetti you know how to piss a guy off.

There isn't a red reputation mark big enough for how frustrating you are.

A release in the theatres usually isn't out on DVD for six months either. Faster now, but back then they often had to wait for the broadcast rights to expire.

I cannot train him... too impatient he is.
