Thanks, Sarge! My avatar is Angel Blake (Blood on Satan's Claw), portrayed by the enviably talented and impossibly beautiful Linda Hayden.

**didi-5** · 01-01-11 04:52 PM

I already have all the films on the OP's list - good stuff.

This year I got the British Transport Films collection, Chaplin at Keystone, and George Bernard Shaw on Film.

I got "the Pacific" box set, a Richard Prior box set (which has one of my favorite films "Carwash" and an old us horror (ish) "the car" (james brolin)
oh! and a sore head and a cold!!

**Mr Pastry Time** · 02-01-11 09:01 AM

I got a film print of the 1957 classic The Lancashire Coast which I had been hunting for 30 odd years.

**torinfan** · 18-01-11 11:29 PM

My Christmas present (a Barnes and Noble gift card from my boss at work) went to pay for "Knock on Wood" with Danny Kaye, Mai Zetterling, and of course Torin. Yeah I was very surprised to see it as I had no idea it was legally released. B&N has a much better DVD selection than Borders, not to mention older films that are new releases on DVD. Can't wait to watch it!!!

A ticket to New York.

Just one ticket? They didn't include a ticket for the return trip? Was someone trying to get rid of you?

This was the return ticket. My parents sent me to Spain for a two week course in 1978, and my letters pleading for the ticket back were finally opened by someone involved in the will-reading.

Hi, Corinne,

I'm late in viewing this thread. Getting your husband home must have made for a wonderful Christmas.
