On the subject of Sister My Sister, I actually found it on Netflix instant streaming and I actually remember having seen it years before (one of the cable stations I'm sure) and also remember being based on a true story of the Papin sisters (had to look that one up). Reality is truly stranger than fiction. It's quite the twisted film, but then I have a somewhat twisted mind, so it works out in the end.

I'm have quite a selection of Criterion DVDs and the one thing they do right is extra features. There was actually a whole documentary included with The Tin Drum that went into the Oklahoma censorship story. I personally found it a bit frightening how far the state was willing to go in order to "protect" innocent minds - you know, from an award-winning, internationally-acclaimed film.
