Remember the one about the big invisible rabbit, "Harvey" wasn't that the title, Jimmy Stewart was in it?

Fred McMurray was in quite a few good ones. The original "Absent Minded Professor" was good.

I agree, definitely Russ' best film. I got to see it on the big screen double featured with Russ' Mudhoney years ago.

Harvey is an excellent movie, they remade it years back with Harry Anderson, Anderson is no James Stewart.

Arsenic and Old Lace
Most of the old Buster Keaton comedies
Metropolis (silent)
The Golem (silent)
Birth of a Nation (yeah, it was responsible for the resurgence of the KKK about 20 years after it had mostly died out, but it's a serious piece of film for all that)
The Killing (One of my favorite Kubrick flicks)

The Night of the Iguana



Poem from Night of the Iguana

How calmly does the olive branch
Observe the sky begin to blanch
Without a cry, without a prayer
With no betrayal of despair

Some time while light obscures the tree
The zenith of its life will be
Gone past forever
And from thence
A second history will commence

A chronicle no longer gold
A bargaining with mist and mold
And finally the broken stem
The plummeting to earth, and then

And intercourse not well designed
For beings of a golden kind
Whose native green must arch above
The earth's obscene corrupting love

And still the ripe fruit and the branch
Observe the sky begin to blanch
Without a cry, without a prayer
With no betrayal of despair

Oh courage! Could you not as well
Select a second place to dwell
Not only in that golden tree
But in the frightened heart of me
