      Me too!! I think a person can watch it in segments on YouTube, which isn’t ideal, but better than nothing.

    What a collection! Then again, any listing that starts with “Niagara” has got to be good. By the way, Ruth, I’ve relatives in Manitoba. Should I warn them about that faceless fiend?

      Ha ha! Doesn’t that fiend/Manitoba movie look great? I must see it! You might want to tell your relatives to be on the look-out, just in case.
