We don't have cable etc, so 99% of our tube watching time is library videos. I watch alot of travel videos, and they can be interesting or total duds.

I know there is a huge body of experience out there that can recommend high quality productions, most all far more proficent than I.

And someone mentioned "The Weeping Camel" (sic) recently which. to me, was a remarkable film, and JUST the sort of film I want to watch.

So I ask that the forum recommends some of their choices of material that is excellent and may very well be overlooked masterpices, as the weeping camel surely is, for my edification as well as others.

I'll Start:

1) The entire "Horatio Hornblower" series

2) "Bride and predjudice", Bollywood and so much fun

3) National Geo's "The Weeping Camel" (sic) utterly wonderful 4)Most "Lonely Planet" Travel videos

Nope. I figure they make more great movies every day than I watch. I just don't want to waste my time with the dogs.

Thanks for the recommendation.

i recently bought the old miniseries, Lonesome Dove, from Amazon. have you seen it? it's wonderful. Robert Duval and Diane Lane's characters are especially appealing. i had seen it when it was aired on tv in the 80s and i enjoyed it every bit as much this second time around.

Christine, I never saw the miniseries but I read the book. someone lent it to me and said 'you'll love it. it's about a cattle drive' - I was like 'uhhh sure, I'm really into cattle drives.' well, I was wrong. it's in my top 3 novels I've ever read, just a wonderful book. if I can find it, I might just re-read it :)

by the way, I try to never see a movie if I've read the book and liked it. is anyone else like that? somehow it ruins it, and I'm not sure why. for one thing, no one looks the way I pictured them, and of course they have to cut out a lot, I guess, to make a book into a movie. it just never seems right.

I'm like that too.
