One of my all-time favorite movie makers, even tho he didn't write, star or direct.  They were still his movies.

there came forth little children out of the city, and mocked him, and said unto him, Go up, thou bald head; go up, thou bald head.
24 And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the Lord. And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them.

    Hi,

    Love his work ... but remember that all those films that you love ... have music by Bernard Herrmann, and how much the music adds to it all.

    They should remaster some of those films!
     
    (Funny! coming up!)
     
    The only bad thing is that he made us believe the stories in the many mythologies that he dealt with ... so that all those Greek things, were real, and made us believe that it really happened. That means never question the classics, and always support the theory of history ... as "given" to you by your elders. Medea and all her magic ... she couldn't be a feminist standing up for her rights? As an example.
     
    As they say ... good clean fun ... I personally love the sword yielding skeletons ... they were more fun! Even Everquest copied it.

    As a wise Guy once stated from his holy chapala ... none of the hits, none of the time ... prevents you from becoming just another turkey in the middle of all the other turkeys!
