Hello once more --- Reader, correspondent and webmaster Rick Klaw has set up a page celebrating Geek Movies not on DVD that invites various writers to add their guilty pleasures. The first half of the alphabet is already up. I think I need to contribute to the second half!

UK correspondent Lee Broughton weighs in with another pair of detailed Spaghetti Western reviews. He really ought to think of compiling them, as his coverage is so thorough. I think Lee has been writing for Savant for at least seven years, as well as helping me as an outside consultant. There's nothing like good help when one is outside one's specialization.

A few more announced titles have been added to the Savant Wish List. I'm pleased that the list is getting so much input from readers.

Although it hasn't mailed yet, the Alice Faye Collection should be on its way soon, with Cinderella Liberty and Volver. All movies about women, but whatcha gonna do? Of the new releases coming out, I hope I can review Children of Men and Animated Soviet Propaganda. In April I'm hoping for Bedazzled, The Silent Partner, True Confessions, Thieves Like Us, Pulp, Brute Force, Overlord, Play Dirty and Von Richtofen and Brown. Thanks for reading! Glenn Erickson
