Only 31. I've never heard of a few of the movies on that list, and some of them I've only seen on TV years later.

We shouldnt be penalized for not being old enough to have seen Gone With the Wind while it was in release. That would give an unfair advantage to guys like creekster and archaea.

The biblical/greek homoerotica genre was a favorite of mine growing up...Ben Hur, 10 Commandments, Spartacus, et al.....lots of shirtless guys, muscular slaves, whips, leather sandals, etc.. Tony Curtis was hot back in the day.
