The MERPs were kind enough to approve five new reviews just for this round.
As an aside: Life After Tomorrow is about actresses who played the part of Little Orphan Annie in the musicals. Murder in Mind is about a woman who can't remember if she killed her husband or not and hypnosis brings back unpleasant memories. The husband is played by the hunky Jimmy Smits who just seems too nice to me. In the movie Mr. Wrong, Meg Ryan gets a fancy non-automatic car that causes her problems. Finally, Ferde Grof�'s music "Grand Canyon Suite" is the soundtrack for the documentary short Grand Canyon.
Choccy: Wasn't it Ellen DeGeneres that starred in "Mr. Wrong"? Or is this a whole different film?
Weeeellll ... you're both sort of wrong: CL's referencing the 1985 film in which character's name is Meg and played by Heather Bolton. Ellen DeG starred in the 1996 film of the same name.

Sorry, my mistake. Meg is the character's name, played by actress Heather Bolton! I'll fix that in my aside. Thanks. |

I saw red's comment first. My aside was wrong (which I now fixed), but the review was and is okay.

99 And 44/100% Dead - stars Chuck Connors. Do the maths.
I'd say, to reference The Princess Bride, that he was nearly dead all day. |

I'm sure it was just a typo, but that brilliant film was directed by the very wonderful Ken Loach, not Roach. [both species of fish, I know!]
Oh, yes ... it's correct in your actual review, for which I've certainly voted! |
