Ah yeah, that'll be it. I'm a little confused about the 1st class shipping. They have one for £1 (group my order), and a standard 1st class for £1.50

Surely they'd charge more for sending more than one title. Or perhaps I'm reading it wrong.

Great purchase with Violent City B. An excellent film.

Just derailing the thread once more.

Not sure why people call The Wicker Man a musical. It isn't. It's a film with songs, that's not the same as a musical, which uses song to drive the narrative forward.

Had Lee's speech and Woodward's pleading pre burning, been in the form of a song then yes it would be a musical.

I wondered why it was listed too, that's like saying the Hobbit films are musicals, seeing as the Dwarves do a fair amount of singing :nod:

I was reluctant to include it to be honest but as others already did I mentioned it as it's one of my favourite films! I agree though, the songs aren't part of the narrative but they are an integral part of the film!

On an different note Amazon.fr has started using UPS now without notification,I noticed a UPS infonotice on wednesday but thought it was something for my neighbours so slipped it in their mailbox.
Luckily I checked the Amazon site and was able to track down my package to a nearby gas station where it's awaiting pickup.

Violent City is probably my fave Euro Bronson, saw a copy where the other actors start speaking Italian(with subs) and Bronsan answers them in English, but in the next scene they're all speaking English again:lol:

It isn't a musical for the reasons you said, in the same way that This Is Spinal Tap isn't a musical – they are both films with songs rather than sung dialogue.

Hmm, my favourite musicals would have to be Tokyo Tribe and Une Femme est Une Femme :)

Here's a list of all the musicals I like:
