For what it’s worth, THE LAST HOLIDAY with Queen Latifah and LL Cool J, is up there in the top 5 of my favourite <> holiday movies. Her poise, charm, and authenticity really make the performance a standout.

PHANTASM never fails to capture my attention and imagination. In 1979 I listened to the soundtrack before I could see the film due to its R-rating and my age. And by now I know this movie’s sound by heart. I can’t say that about a lot of movies.
