Whoever came up with the system that provides recommendations to Amazon.com customers based on their previous purchases really needs to tweak a few things. I just received the following notice:

Because, truly, if any two movies belong together, they are Kalifornia and the Beethoven series. In fact, I don’t think a better cinematic pairing has occurred since the splendiferous serendipity of the Candyman/Mary Poppins double feature at the 1998 Fhuthawuckia Festival.

Actually, this pairing reminds me of one of my favorite YouTube videos. Some clever git out there recut scenes from Mary Poppins and turned them into a trailer for a horror movie called Scary Mary. Quite effective job they did, too.
