Good customer care is indeed a rare thing. Congratulations on your euphoric experience.

I've been with Netflix going on two years based on irulan_amy's recommendation and I don't have a single complaint thus far.

That's an interesting avatar choice.

Wow, my friend, you wrote an entire entry on how much you love Netflix. I'm happy that you love it as much as Apple - but you better not love it as much as mEEE!

I love Netflix. I'm able to get all those wonderful old movies that I love to death. Walk into Blockbuster and ask for Arsenic and Old Lace and they're like "huh?" :P

I know. Our Blockbuster here is woefully under-stocked and charges late fees which is why I turned ot Netflix and have never looked back.

I saw The Eagle Has Landed at the theater when it came out in 1976. I also vividly remember seeing A Bridge Too Far at the theater. It was my first and last film at the theater that had an intermission. I HIGHLY recommend it along with The Big red One: The Reconstruction. Kelly's heroes is always good too. Donald Sutherland is excellent in it.

I'll take you up on your recommendations. I have a few for you to stroke your history degree:

Steal a Pencil for Me - a documentary about a couple who wrote to each other while in concentration camps, married whilst there and survived to tell their story

Der Untergang (aka The Downfall) - a film about the last days of the Third Reich, especially showing life in the Fuherbunker. Based on the diaries of one of his secretaries who escaped and hid for 60+ years.

The Lives of Others - an intimate look at the "relationship" between a Stasi officer who is sent to spy on a revolutionary writer and his wife who is caught smuggling his expose out of East Germany

Black Book - a Jewish singer infiltrates the regional Gestapo headquarters for the Dutch resistance. Explores the politics of the faling Nazi regiem.
