I'm flipping channels and there's a movie called Human Desire on. Its about a train engineer and it showed some cool pics already. It may get mushy but I'm hoping for more trains!!

Haven't seen that one but it sounds possibly interesting. Without giving away the plot, I read this about the movie:

"Cinematographer Burnett Guffey is relentless in capturing the spiritual desolation of the characters with ominous shots of the myriad railroad tracks interweaving and separating in a train yard at night. It becomes a metaphor for the human paths criss-crossing each other. Penetrating and searing, Human Desire is a nagging allegory about the darkness of human motivation and the corruption of the soul, and of desperate characters who live unfulfilled lives ...

Hey Joe, way to go!!! You tell us about a train movie then leave us hanging without telling us what channel it's on.
