Following this are the results of my 'If you were going to a desert island'
poll. There are 29 responses compiled here, with 164 different movies
represented. The winners, in a virtual tie, are 2001 and Casablanca. There
are lots of other interesting tidbits in there, so enjoy!
Comments: this was compiled in the following way: each first place vote got
10 points, second 9, and so on. 10th place vote gets one point. The listing
shows the total number of points, the film name, and the number of times
this film was mentioned in parens. Some entries didn't have 10 films, so
the total number won't add up to 29*10 factorial.
