If you multiply by pi and add the solar constant and subtract the gravitational fluctuation you will come up with the movie, "Contact" which is my favorite.

Thanks.

Crossword clue. Five letters. In Casablanca who says, “Play it again Sam.”?

Answer: no one

Something approaching 'Play it again, Sam' is first said in the film by Ilsa Lund (Ingrid Bergman) in an exchange with the piano player 'Sam' (Dooley Wilson): Probably the most misquoted line in cinema history. Ilsa: “Play it once, Sam. For old times' sake.”

5. Forrest Gump

Forrest Gump: "Sometimes when people go to Vietnam, they go home to their mommas without any legs. Sometimes they don't go home at all. That's a bad thing. That's all I have to say about that."

What about Jenny? In the movie, the love of Forrest Gump's life dies just one year after the couple become man and wife. It is not actually confirmed what kills her but we are given reason to believe that the cause is AIDS. The story took place in the '80s when the virus was at its peak in the U.S . . . . In his sequel, however, writer Winston Groom confirms that this was not the cause of death. It was in fact hepatitis C which killed Jenny and she was infected by the virus through drug-use.

In the film, Gary's costume includes a St. Christopher Medal with the inscription "Protect Us in Combat." This prop is actually a genuine medal which once belonged to Gary Sinise's brother-in-law. The real owner actually wore it during his service in the Vietnam War.

John Lennon Features In the Movie In the film, during Forrest Gump's endless adventures, he also ends up meeting the legendary John Lennon. The footage of the encounter was actually real and was taken from the Beatle's appearance on the Dick Cavett Show. In the film, Yoko Ono was digitally removed and convincingly replaced with Tom Hanks in character. This meant that the footage looks genuinely authentic (because it is), only obviously Forrest Gump was not actually present when the recording was originally made!

2. E.T.

“Remind” magazine has an interesting article this month. It claims 1939 was the golden year for Hollywood movies even though World War II was on the horizon. I definitely think they are onto something.

Some of my favorites from 1939 were “Gone With The Wind,” “The Wizard of Oz,” “Mister Smith Goes to Washington,” “Stagecoach,” “Gunga Din,” “The Hunchback of Notre Dame,” “Drums Along the Mohawk,” “The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes,” “Huckleberry Finn,” and “Stanley and Livingstone.”

The movie, “Scoop,” on Netflix is interesting if you want to find out see how “the news” in the modern world is generated. It follows the Royal scandal involving Prince Andrew. Andrew is played by Rufus Sewell who also appeared as Lord Melbourne on the show “Victoria.” And the other big part is played by Dana Scully, 'X-Files' alum, Gillian Anderson.
