Those are old, old traditions for the death of a family member, like telling the bees & putting crepe ribbons (mourning ribbons) on a beehive, too. You cover the mirrors to keep the spirit from jumping somewhere else. You stop the clocks at the time of death so you won't have bad luck. Some of those traditions have their roots in Jewish traditions, others I'm not so sure of, mostly they are observed deep in the South.

Please don't over due the personal hygenie multi-tasking, Turtle Girl.  \n\nThat is how Ava Gabor died and why we never see Charro on tv anymore...she accidentally applied a curling iron to her mask encrusted face and was left with a hideous frozen coutenance.  She can't even say 'Coochie Coochie' anymore.

It wasn't 'Game of Death', it was 'Fist of Fury' aka 'The Chinese Connection'.\nHe wasn't looking at his nipples, he was looking at his underwear. The kind of underwear the murderous cook  was wearing is worn only by Japanese men.\n\nNOW your morning segue is complete.\n\n*additional* \n\n'FistS of Fury' aka 'The Big Boss' was a movie about Bruce working in an ice factory.\n'FisT of Fury' aka 'The Chinese Connection' featured Bruce beating up the murderous cook wearing the Japanese underwear.

The clock reaches 6:00, ending the time limit. Zep and Alison fight over a gun while Det. Tapp rushes to save her. The fight turns into a chase as Det. Tapp tries to catch Zep before he can get to the room. Believing that his wife and daughter are still in danger, Gordon finally saws off his own foot thinking that it is the only way to save his family, while Adam cries out unsuccessfully, trying to tell Dr. Gordon to stop.\n\nDet. Tapp nearly emerges victorious, but is shot by Zep, who rushes to the washroom and leaves him to die. Free of his shackle after sawing off his foot, Gordon shoots Adam. Very soon after, Zep reaches the washroom and is tackled by Adam, who is injured but still alive and beats Zep to death with the toilet lid. After a tearful goodbye, Gordon leaves, saying he has to get help, or he'll bleed to death.\n\nAdam, however, is still shackled to the wall. He searches Zep’s pockets for a key, but instead finds another cassette. Zep was manipulated by Jigsaw all along. He was being forced to kidnap Dr. Gordon's wife and daughter, or be killed by a poison coursing through his system.\n\nThe real Jigsaw, it turns out, was actually Dr. Gordon's patient John and has been pretending to be the “corpse” on the floor. John rises up and tells him the key to his chains is in the bathtub, but had been swept away when Adam first awoke. John has been making people kill themselves to make them learn life lessons, as he himself is bitter from his approaching death from an inoperable brain tumor. Adam is shocked by the moment and John abandons him, turning off the lights and locking him in the room. “Game over,” he says, ending the film with Adam trapped in the pitch-black washroom, screaming into the credits.

Her name was Rose Ellen. Haven't found out yet how she died.

I've read the book, but I didn't like it. And I've only seen parts of the movie. The little girl dies of lukemia. Carmen's father gets married. The sisterhood remain friends, and they still consider the pants remarkable. The author of the book wrote a sequel, and I think Hollywood may be making it into a movie. You know, I really did not approve of Carmen's father bringing her down to his new house, and she just finds out he's getting married. He should have told her, so she wouldn't have felt so betrayed. She broke his window over it.

She died at the age of 88 of natural causes.  To me that means she died in her sleep - probably her heart just stopped.  If there had been a "cause" like you seem to want, I would think the obituary would mention something else.

How do you blend wife beating with "Happy Holidays?" I worked at a shelter once upon a time, and we never thought of making Christmas cards that ask "What if Joseph had kicked Mary down seven flights of stairs?"  never occurred to us.  Maybe it should have.

ok..I just saw this last week, I'll tell you what I remember. Angelina Jolie's character found a book called "the bone collector" from which the serial killer was copying crimes. She realized what was next and went to the location. She rescued a little girl, but an old man w/her died.  Jolie looked around for the killer's next "clue" - which he left at every scene.  found a broken lock. went in. saw some #'s. realized it was Denzel Washington's old badge number and that he was next.  She shot the killer (who turned out to be the man who worked on his medical machines in beginning of movie) just as he was about to kill Washington.  The end.

It's more about the robots not having the capability of human emotion.\n\nYes, Spooner was lucky the robot was walking by and owes his life to him. But had it have been a human, the human would have at least made the effort to try to save Sarah instead of just deciding it wasn't worth the risk because Spooner had a higher probality of living.\n\nHumans react. Robots deduct.

It is my belief that Marilyn's death was covered up because of the Kennendy's (Both John and Robert )desires to keep their grasp on the political power that they had mantained here in America since the 1930's.When both John and Robert Kennendy had sexual relations with Marilyn,they unwittedly devulged some state secerts that could have been damaging to America,as well as the Kennendy administration.When they broke off the relationship,Marilyn felt betrayed and threaten to go public with this information (she kept a little red diary of the Kennendy's conversations they had with her).When Hoover found out,it was decided that was a threat to the national security of the United States of America, so she have to go,but since the American government DON'T go around killing it's own citizen like Nazi Germany did, or like the Communist Nation did at that time, and since Marilyn was an big star,an American icon,her demise was faked as a sucicide...this was the only way to despose of her with out the American public asking to many Questions.

It was a biblical pestilence.  If you watch the film carefully, there is a biblical chapter and verse (Exodus 20:5 I think)played in the background in several scenes in the film - inculding a bus stop lighted billboard in the frog scence.  The verse is something about the sins of the fathers being brought upon their sons.\n\nAs a matter of trivia, there are also magnolias in the background scenery throughout the movie - like pictures framed on walls etc.

To show how horrible the Holocaust really was the sexual scenes were necessary. If "Schindler's list" had been censored in any way I don't think the magnitude of how horrible it was would have come across the way it did. Also I think it was necessary to show how Hilter really was.
