I know! A couple of years ago, the Silver Theater which is a part of the American FIlm Institute and is directly north of DC, had a Sean Connery film festival. There were no Bond films at the festival but they promised some later in the year. The Bond films never came. As I live within ten minutes of the Silver, I was particularly disappointed. But now this. I will try to go to several of the films.

And anybody spot the missing films from this season?

Just plain ignorance. Are ABC sponsoring this?

Here's the comments blog as to why they are missing certain films.

I was really diappointed when I noticed that OHMSS was not on the list. I am hoping to make a couple of the films and it lead my list of films that I wanted to see on a big screen again. It had been my first Bond film.

Seems like the less "popular" Bonds--Lazenby and Dalton--missed out in this event.

I saw Psycho there a while back. Its a great place. I grew up in Silver Spring. I'm in college now though, but I'm not too far away.
