Thanks, Alky. I definitely needed to rewatch it since the first time I saw it, it was in awful shape, the subtitles were really bad, and I think there were some scenes missing.
I haven't checked out
Simon of the Desert, actually! That's one I keep passing over and I don't know why. I'll have to pick it up soon, with it being a fairly cheap release due to the runtime.
Thanks for the rec!
