I agree that Anne Bancroft is the lesser light there--how can you compete with the wonder of a restrained Anthony Hopkins (see, also, "Remains of the Day"). For whatever reason, I always remember the quavery old man who comes in looking for the Archimboldo prints. So charming. “84 Charing Cross Road” is one of my go-to movies whenever I’m sick and snuffling on the couch.

I had no idea Hanff had written so many more books! Thanks for the knowledge, Rechelle. I have to disagree on Charing Cross Rd., the movie, though. I am not at all an Anne Bancroft fan, and it has taken quite some work to remove her bitter voice from my head while reading Hanff's writing!

I've been meaning to tell you also that I watched ARRANGED on your recommendation and I thoroughly enjoyed it. What a great film!
