I have to nip over to Netflix to put Netflix on my queue.

I consider Spartacus to be one of the greatest movies of all time. However, Kirk Douglas is not Joe the Plumber ;-)

His autobiography is fascinating reading. Literally a rags to riches story. He wrote about how one year when he was in New York City and a struggling young actor he was so down and out that he was actually turned away by the Salvation Army on Thanksgiving. The next year he was in a hit show and had Thanksgiving dinner at the mansion of a wealthy family. Just fascinating stuff.

A great actor, though his politics leave something to be desired. How he can still be a lefty at this time is beyond me.

"The Bad and the Beautiful" (1952) - the best movie about Hollywood, ever.
