I realise that I live in an area that doesn't have the cultural
benefits of the East/West coast, BUT the latest flyer for the
Grenada cinema in Dallas touts the following double features:

Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence/Bridge on the River Kwai
Risky Business/The Graduate
The Road Warrior/Mad Max
Victor Victoria/La Cage aux Folles
Educating Rita/Alfie
Cabaret/All that Jazz
Hammett/The Maltese Falcon
Andy Warhol's Frankenstein/Night of the Living Dead

Not a very long list since they are also running a series of Fellini's 
flicks and a series of Czech films.

I would like to see a festival of the various *Thing* movies (the
previous to be read as a regular expression in the Bourne shell sense),
to be called "All Things Considered."
