"Five Easy Pieces" on skis
	The Shining (1980)
The snow in his film has such a presence it even upstages Scatman Crothers.

She's got a sense of snow, so Smila makes the list. Just barely.
	Affliction (1997)
The perfect Father's Day rental.

Not only do they have to worry about frostbite, they have to worry about Wilford Brimley's mustache.

About the only thing this movie has in common with "There's Something About Mary" is the haircuts.
	Cliffhanger (1993)
Sylvester Stallone plays a rescue ranger who, after a tragic helicopter rescue, grows cold, and then later, his heart warms up when terrorists....Oh, nevermind. You know who's in this movie? The man, the myth: Leon. Also the chick from Northern Exposure.
	A Christmas Story (1983)
Probably the best Christmas story ever. You haven't gone through childhood unless you've seen this puppy 30 times.
	Scarface (Anniversary Edition) (1983)
Excuses are like Tony Montana impressions: Everyone has one and they all stink.
	Blow (2001)
This movie is what Goodfellas would have been like if it had more cocaine, Rolling Stones tunes, and Martin Scorsese was in a coma.
	Better Off Dead (1985)
A lot of people forget this, but this is the first film to have a character snort snow through a straw. Long before Driving Miss Daisy.
	Jack Frost (1997)
The best movie about a serial killer turned into a snowman EVER.
	Groundhog Day (1993)
Never before has carving someone's likeness out of snow been so creepy.

Give Edward Scissy a block of ice and a bag of cherry syrup and you've got yourself the best birthday party ever.

	Fargo (Special Edition) (1996)
Minnesota must suck.
	Superman II (Special Edition) (1980)
Superman gets it on with Lois Lane in his winter home. Son of Jor-el? More like Son of John Holmes.
	The Survivors (1983)
The semi-original Odd Couple
	The Sopranos: Season 3 (Disc 3 of 4) (1999)			Not Rated
Includes "The Pine Barrens", possibly the best episode of The Sopranos.
	Insomnia (2002)
A detective who can't sleep because it's perpetually white outside. "Two thumbs up... Way up," raves the Ku Klux Klan.
	Hot Dog: The Movie (1983)
As I recall, there's a giant hot dog in this one. I don't recall much else.
