Recycled Film Titles
A bit of an old chestnut (and possibly in the wrong forum, to boot!), but well worth another airing in my opinion. The rules are quite simple; take a film title, change a single letter in it and provide a brief description of the plot.
I shall start the ball rolling with:
The Silence of the Limbs A dramatic account of the decades long struggle to develop the first non-creaking wooden leg.
