    Not a direct answer but perhaps interesting.

    I saw The Parallax View with Warren Beatty when it came out in 1974.  "The story concerns a reporter's investigation into a secretive organization, the Parallax Corporation, whose primary focus is political assassination."

    I'm not much for conspiracy theories in general, but this movie had me sitting in the theater thinking
    well after the credits had rolled.

  • I missed that one, Tom. Maybe you could add it to the question just asked about the best movies we've ever seen., (Check the latest questions.)

  • This is one of those wacky ones that you come up against sometimes ... Some people still believe the world is round!
     Yes, I know ... Despite the evidence of their eyes they believe it to be true.
    It's good fodder for a funny conversation but these people also vote and that's a concern!

    IKR there are also people who think the moon is made out of rocks instead of cheese.  Some people just can't see what is right in front of them!

  • I hoped somebody would mention this one. 

    Back in the 1980s there was a Flath Earther who set up a stall every lunch time in Sydney's Queen's Square. He had the deeds to two blocks of land pinned to it and offered to give them to anybody who could prove to him that the world was round.

    I stopped occasionally to listen and there were all manner of arguments presented but none of them was ever able to satisfy him. He answered them all with either, "Those photographs were faked" or simplu, "I don't accept that." 

    His two blocks of land were perfectly safe.

    The Ice Bucket Challenge was secretly a Satanic ritual.

    Don't worry!  If you did the Ice Bucket Challenge you can undo it by doing the Bath Challenge which is secretly a Christian baptism!

    I guess doing both of them would cancel each other out!

  • And perfectlyu reasonable, Livvie. I have a funny story about a Christian baptism but it's so unlikely that, if I told it, everyone would think I was just making it up.
