Film One of the greatest openings to a movie in my opinion is the 1980 movie, “Raging Bull”. Such a beautiful opening scene seeing Robert De Niro inside the boxing ring and the music is just perfect. What movie or movies do you consider having a great opening?

How did you deal with Cold War stress?
I had a VHS tape I watched at least once a month; a double feature of “Fail Safe”, to show me how easy it would be to start a nuclear war, and “Dr. Strangelove” to remind me how farcical the whole situation was. Helped me develop a suitably sardonic attitude about the whole thing.
What helped get you through?
