And the wonderful scene with the gandydancer, from 'Brother, Where Art Thou.' BWAT is one of the few modern made films I can bear watching over and over. I also have the musical DVD, Down from the Mountain, which features the original artists singing and playing the songs from the film. Both DVDs are highly recommended.

Cheers Bazza

'Brother, Where Art Thou' George Clooney "the big rock candy mountain"? you know it is a good movie when less than 5 minutes into it there is a steam locomotive pulling a freight train. a 2-6-2 prarie i believe.
