I'll have to see that at some stage...
I'm a bit of Lynch fan (especially Lost Highway and Mulholland Drive), and it would be interesting to see what his "straight" storytelling is like. Espcially for Disney.

This is what I like about these countdowns - seeing what other people enjoy helps you to either see films you may not have seen before, or reassess films you may have given a miss (like Snow Dogs! Vote for Snow Dogs...).

And welcome to the forum, rodneyf.
