I was so taken with Dress to Kill (had never heard of Eddie before randomly clicking through HBO and stopping because damn, his eye makeup was fierce! and intelligence is the sexiest thing of all, for me) that I immediately bought all his available tapes from a UK company (Blackstone?) and paid extra to have them converted to the North American format.

Hope he achieves his wish to be mayor of London, also.

Target had storm troopers and a nifty little display of the B-B-2 (?) droid there, which (of course) you couldn't purchase.

May the discount be with you...
