You know, if you were to take a half-step to your left, there would be NOTHING in that photo (aside from color) to suggest that pic wasn't taken in 1933!
Ladies and Gentlemen;
For "Greatest Movie Ever Made", I submit for your consideration Peter Jackson's "Lord of the Rings", parts 1-3, screened back to back as they were meant to be viewed. Long? Without a doubt. Brilliant? ABSOLUTELY!!
LOTR is SO great that we may be able to forgive...

Stratoliner -vs- Open Road?
Gents,
What is the difference between the Stratoliner and the Open Road? I need the info pretty quick since it will make the difference on a potential purchase! Thanks!!
