    Ricky's dad is the only man who's got a full length photograph for his passport picture.

    When the rice crispies hear Ricky's mom, they don't snap, crackle and pop, they say 'shhhh, she's coming'

    I think my pick for an evening would be Sugar Ray Leonard.

    I wouldn't mind spending the evening dining with the De La Hoya's. Especially if Millie was for dessert.

    Hi HOYA-UK,

    I very much enjoyed your recommendation 'Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter and Spring' in the movie thread.

    Great film, have a look at some of the other recomendations I made in McGrains thread, probablly like a few of them. I tend to uncover gems from time to time.

    Is it just Ricky telling **** jokes or does he talk about his career? Does he take any questions from the audience?

    He's probably too pissed by the time he's repeated his jokes

    Someone who went to one evening told me he was steaming

    Raise the Red Lantern is interesting. Generally any film with Gong Li in it is usually very highly regarded

    And some of Jackie Chans earlier films were set in beautiful landscapes - Young Master, Project A and Drunken Master are phenominal

    Yep Jackie Chan films pre-hollywood were fantastic (some of his American films are good too). My favourite has to be police story though. As you say Project A and Drunken Master are great too.

    Infernal Affairs Trilogy
    A Better Tomorrow
    Hard Boiled (best action film ever made)
    The Killer (not far behind)

    Then there are films like:

    Oldboy
    Fallen Angles
    In the Mood for Love
    Lady Vengance
    2046


    All very good or great films, the work of Wong Kar Wai is broadly similar to 'Spring, Summer...'

    French cinema is more my area of expertise though.
