- The Silence of the Lambs (1991) One of my favorite things is that Demme really utilizes his patented tic of having actors look directly into the camera, something he’s been doing since at least Last Embrace.
- Melvin and Howard (1980) Imagine picking up a raggedy hitchhiker, who tells you that he’s Howard Hughes. You go about and live your life. You have marriages and children.
- Philadelphia (1993) Talk about a fascinating time capsule. When Philadelphia was made, having the AIDS virus was nothing short of a death sentence. There really wasn’t any other option.

- ‘Melvin and Howard’ (1980) Meet down-on-his-luck Melvin Dummar (Paul Le Mat), a man who has suffered various indignities: a lost job, a repossessed truck, a long-gone stripper-wife.
