Man From Snowy River is one of my all time favorite movies. That rootin tootn darned brumby! I love how every time that horse appears it rears up and they zoom on its evil eye to the cacophonous violin music.

On Seventh Seal... Its been years and years since I've seen that movie so I don't remember all of it; however, what I do remember leads me to think that this one was definitely Demi Moore's best movie.

From Wikipedia

The Seventh Seal (Swedish: Det sjunde inseglet) is a 1957 Swedish film directed by Ingmar Bergman. Set during the Black Death, it tells of the journey of a medieval knight (Max von Sydow) and a game of chess he plays with the personification of Death, who has come to take his life. Bergman developed the film from his own play Wood Painting. The title refers to a passage from the Book of Revelation, used both at the very start of the film, and again towards the end, beginning with the words "And when the Lamb had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour" (Revelation 8:1). Here the motif of silence refers to the "silence of God" which is a major theme of the film.[1]

Never saw the Demi Moore flick, I think its called "The Seventh Sign."

That is all
