Letter in the Mail

A Henry Phillips classic about communication lags
and financial situations.
He irons it all out, a happy ending for sure.
A puffy little expletive in their that may cause your
Grandma’s head to spin around at several hundred
rpm, if it’s hot where you are just sit next to her face
as it churns up a decent breeze…

Shaun of the Dead

This is the beginning clip from a British horror comedy that
came out in 2004 called Shaun of the Dead.
Written by Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright, it stars Simon as
a forlorn guy who was just dumped by his long time girlfriend
and Nick Frost a partying friend of Simon’s who joins in with
the zombie bashing once the fun starts.
This scene is hilarious in that Simon (Shaun) is oblivious to
all of the zombies, and the destruction they leave in their
wake, as he shakes off the morning fog and saunters to the local
store for supplies.
There are more than a few telltale signs that things are amiss.
The bloodstains on just about everything would have tipped
me off.
One naughty bit towards the middle, its is widely known that
Zombies detest profanity and it was uttered to confuse and
deny them brains…

The Sword Fight

A thoroughly splendid scene from a classic movie.
The Princess Bride hit the theaters back in 1987.
Directed by Rob Reiner the flick when on to cult status
pretty quickly, it had many things traditional cinema did not.
This piece has some really good dialogue in it that inspires.
Cary Elwes and Mandy Patinkin star as Westley and Inigo Montoya.
They start off as foes but their relationship turns into something
else entirely, a wonderful movie everyone should enjoy.
Some nice back and forth here…
