I'll have to check that out...  I hadn't even though about doing that [BAD 
Kriselda! BAD!] because the reaction I had to seeing his name was just a 
bit overwhelming <grin>

Ok, here goes :)

* Criminal Law
* Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead (don't remember much about much 
about it - didn't hold my attention well at all)
* JFK
* Dracula (more times than I can count - it's one of my husband's all-time 
favourite movies)
* True Romance
* Romeo is Bleeding
* The Professional (aka Leon)
* The Fifth Element (this one couldn't hold my attention either)
* Air Force One
* The Contender
