I rebut Ann's implicit aspersion.
The remake's a Tex-Mex excursion
Which has lots of pistols,
Hints of cleavage and bristols,
And less art than the Japanese version.

Pedro, I'd been thinking of doing "The Seventh Seal", but you beat me to it.

A man in an unredeemed state
Whose clock never changes its date
Lays on charm with a trowel
And wins Andie McDowell
Which suggests that it's never too late.

Jerome, that's a very enjoyable little film ... but I'd better not hog the entire guessing game.

Of course Brian was right about Marienbad - inasmuch as anyone can ever be...

That Obscure Object of Desire

While extremists ignite sturm und drang
and Mathieu tells his tale to a gang,
two actresses flirt
with a spoiler alert,
and then everything ends with a bang.

Her body was found on the floor; a
Detective becomes her adorer.
When the door is unlocked
And she enters, he’s shocked,
For she’s dead, so how can it be Laura?

Nigel, that's a scweam.
(The King's Speech)

Pedro, since you scooped me on The Seventh Seal, you force me to do this:

In a style that's exclusively Jack's
He comes to the door with an axe,
Then sticks his head in
And says with a grin:
"Here's Johnny!" How Jack overacts!

Three steel men, close friends since they met:
Each sought to become a cadet;
It seemed like good fun
To carry a gun
Until they played Russian Roulette.

O Marion what have you done?
You've embezzled and gone on the run,
Where your nemesis waits
Thanks to young Master Bates,
Who is such an affectionate son.
