Heh, usually have to hit submit three times, as new posts are made in mean time.
Can't remember where to disable that though. Slightly annoying.

Quite low for Lumet, especially considering he was on everyone's ballot.
I really think Dog Day Afternoon is one of my favorite films.

 Re: WOKJ 100 best directors: The Countdown! Playing NOW!
Expected. At least it's not top 20. Btw, I was browsing though is imdb list, Lumet directed Child's Play?  Not that CP isn't a solid goofy horror film, but really.
