Overheard

[GRAEME]

Two overheard conversations involving films:

1

In a newsagents that was being re-fitted: First Fitter (fixing a partition): Broadsword calling Danny Boy... Come in Danny Boy... Second fitter (working on carpet at other end of shop): Danny Boy here, Come in Broadsword... First Fitter: Broadsword, bring me the masking tape, over...

2

In a pub in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne one Sunday lunchtime: 1st Geordie: Good film on this afternoon, then. John Wayne - War Wagon. 2nd Georde: Whose wagon? 1st Geordie: War Wagon! 2nd Geordie: My wagon? 1st Geordie: No! War Wagon!

Anybody got any more?

I've got one but it made me feel a bit sad.

Scene: my local high street DVD/CD store. There's a sale on.

Young bloke: Look at this. I heard about this when it was out a while back.
Young girl: What is it?
Young bloke: 'Layer Cake'. Supposed to be really good.
Young girl: Really?
Young bloke: Yea. Mikey saw it, said it was awesome. Got good reviews as well.
Young girl: Go and get it then.
Young blokeshrugs shoulders) Nah. It's British innit. (Returns DVD to rack).

Words fail me!!

Yes, a real classic

If it had been the only film ever made, it still wouldn't be Number One.
