Some of my favorite films

I've been living in DVD land the past few weeks. My wife took a trip to Israel and had to attend a funeral in Los Angeles leaving me plenty of time to veg in front of the big screen TV. I've watched some old classics such as "Animal House" and "Easy Rider" and even checked out a a copy of "Home Alone" from the local library. My favorite retro-trip was "Midnight Cowboy". This movie rocks. Something about seeing New York City, 42nd street, alienation and good acting appeals to me. I saw the movie on my parents VCR about 10 years ago and it was interesting to see what I had remembered. In one scene, Ratso and Joe Buck are freezing in their decrepit dwelling dancing to the song "Orange Juice, on ice, it's nice..." It really captures the whole idea of being stuck in misery and finding the right tune, the right mood to propel you out of the yuckiness of life....
