I've been using iMovie on a pre-Intel iMac for about 10 years now. About 5 years back the iMac suffered a major breakdown which was quite expensive to repair. I want to buy a new computer during the coming year and have decided that I cannot afford another Mac, so I'll be getting a Windows machine. ...

Kubrick used salt when shooting The Shining.

A messenger brings bad news. The recipient of the bad news beats the crap out of the messenger. The action then goes back to the point just after the guy got the messenger and we know that the beating was just in the character's mind.

thanks again.

"The lab that develops your film holds the copyright!" Spoken by a clerk who refused to scan my prints because they had "copyright XYZ Photography" stamped on the back. I had not even noticed the stamp until he pointed it out. I had taken my film to XYZ for processing and they fa...
