Songs

Anything before 1980 except disco.

Damned hard to narrow things down. I had to leave out The Maltese Falcon, Oh What a Lovely War, Galipoli and if it's the same "If" I left it out also, along with another other brilliant Kubrik film, A Clockwork Orange. I also loved The Lonliness of the Long Distance Runner an This Sporting Life.
Koala-Man: is Your Version of "If" set in a large English boarding school?
