Just added The Hours and Shadowlands to my Wish List on Amazon - planning to place an order in the next week or so.

Also noticed that Schindlers List is being released on DVD next week - been waiting for this to come out on DVD for yonks - another favourite

It's even worse when she comes back at the end and throws herself onto the coffin - in fact I can feel my eyes prickling just thinking about it!

What about Life is Beautiful? Manon des Sources (sequel to Jean de Florette)? I actually sobbed my eyes out in Trainspotting when the bub dies!!!!
