----------------------------Original message---------------------------- Dear James, Taking selfish advantage of your offer! I have to do programe notes on Un Taxi Mauve (The Purple Taxi) directed by Yves Boisset, released in 1977 for a film series. I have been unable to come up with any reviews of this film. Help would be appreciated. Regards Jeannette >Hiya, > >So I write today to tell you of a wonderful find. I recieved the >"MOTION PICTURE GUIDE" CD-ROM this morning and am really pleased. >It's got everything (I swear) from 1927-1993. It's based on a twenty >volume film refence work. Each of the 35,000 films has extensive >cast and crew, and a short to massive synopsis. Lots of trivia, >all kinds of info. The interface is a little clunky and the copying >commands are weird, there's no pictures and sound, but loads of >information. It blows MICROSOFT CINEMANIA out of the water and if >you've wondered what to use you CD-ROM for, this may be it :-) >One disk works on MAC and PC and it takes up about 1meg of hard >disk space. > >And since I'm such a nice guy and want to support this product, >I'll post information on whatever obscure movie you'd like to >find out about.
