Featuring such caustic and comic looks at the world of film as: The offers of Don Corleone's that you can and cannot refuse. What to answer if asked, "Who is Spartacus?" The likelihood of what tomorrow will bring for Scarlett O'Hara. The one question that Dirty Harry wants a punk to ask themselves.
