For me the first one is especially so, having just watched Sweet Dreams, a mostly-bio pic about Patsy Cline.

Similar reaction ... we just watched "Society of the Snow".  Excellent film, by the way!   It's about the 1972 crash of a plane in the Andes carrying the Uruguayan rugby team.   They were stranded in the high mountains for 71 days with a little less than half ultimately surviving.   The story involves cannibalism. 

It did remind me of a couple of jokes I remember from Leno and Letterman's monologues when a similar situation was in the news.  One noted that "they had options ... they did have airplane food!", while the other questioned how they made decisions: "so, what's for dinner tonight?  We have Mexican, Italian, Chinese ...?"

Bill, tgo

When I was Recording Supervisor for the School Of Music at Northern Illinois University (2004-05), I blew that one up to 11X8.5 and taped it to the door of the studio.
As of last fall, it was still there, I'm pleased to note.

There's a copy of it taped to the inside of the Harwell-Grice Band's mixer case. And I wrote with a Sharpie pen next to it the quote, "...why doesn't it ever work!?" ~Bob Weir
