I know that I'm taking a chance on people reading more into my answer than I mean to let out, but ... I'm a real fan of crime drama movies.

I don't know if you can classify them as non-PC though ...

1. The Usual Suspects

2. LA Confidential

3. Reservoir Dogs

4. A Simple Plan

5. Fargo (I know, woman police chief, very PC ... oh well)

6. Body Heat (remember the "Mind if I smoke ?" scene)

7. Pulp Fiction

and so on ... you get the idea ... where somebody "hatches a plot" and everything goes wrong ... I love it.

Got to admit we really enjoyed the Death Wish series with Charles Bronson. :-)

"It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" is a good example, however, are we forgetting anything made by Cheech & Chong? Hilarious, racially stereotypical, drug sodden, romps through Mexico & L.A.- I wish they'd play them on HBO or Showtime more often.

Any Cohen Brothers movie.

"RED DAWN" is great, even if a bit restricted in the age demographic. As a Second Amendment movie, it sure makes the point.

The other movie that squirms a socialist is "Enemy at the Gate", the siege of Stalingrad. It points out at the beginning the true nature of Stalinism and the dirty little secret of socialism; dire shortages of necessities.

Mel Gibson's We Were Soldiers is good. I have some minor critisms of it, but it presents a positive view of some of our military at that time. It's based on a true story. Moore became a lieutinant general. The part played by Sam Eliot as the Sergeant Major was brilliant.

Probably Airplane!, too. Who can forget Mrs. Cleaver's immortal line:

"Stewardess, I speak Jive."

Have you seen *Blood Simple*? It was the first Coen Brothers movie. And they have Francis Mcdermond on the leading role.

'55 Days at Peking'.

Fantastic movie (my Heston favoite). But it seems they had a hard time finding Asian actors... The 'Asian blackface' kind of detracts from it.

I forgot Iron Eagle and the Ronaldus Maximus reference reminded me.

Loved the reference to "RAY-GUN" in it!
