Makes me want to add all the ones I'm missing to my Netflix queue.

One time, when I owned a car, I drove to see _Black Narcissus_ in Alameda, California at a mostly empty theatre made art deco of pieces cribbed from now-gone theatres around the Bay. I think there was one old couple, another loner dummy like me and a middle aged couple. I enjoyed the silence about me as the film flickered tall. The print was gorgeous.
So are all of these images. Real talent is rare!
