Obama's gift to Gordon Brown: 25 DVD's.

And if it's American classics then why is Lawrence of Arabia in there? I thought that was British....

Should have given him Blu-Rays instead, DVDs are so 1998.

You're right, it is entirely British. For some reason the AFI still has it on their list, they used to have The Third Man on it as well, but they removed that a couple of years ago after realising it wasn't American. It might take a little while before they get their grubby hands off Lawrence..

I was expecting Shawshank Redemption there

One film buff I know called it 'The Favourite Film of People Who Don't Really Like Films'.

It's good, don't get me wrong, but I was always perplexed by it's staggering adoration on here.

I ain't seen it :fp:

so no bias here

It's the comments underneath the article from Americans that have made me laugh

What a disgrace. Doesn't this guy have any pride? Sense of propriety? I can't believe that this is our leader. Very bad form.

You all helped elect him. Now you get to live with him. The rest of the world is finally starting to realize their mistake. As the Liberals were so keen to say about Bush.
"I didn't vote for him. Hes not MY president."

Beyond tacky and cheap...how embarrassing!
