Silly Film Titles

Dear Uncle Dick
I'm fearing that your Twitter antics, in particular your reference to Welsh film titles has brought the whole of the Twitisphere to a stand still.
It seems that the world can't cope with your debonair sense of style, charm and dashing good looks (or the threat that you may have more followers than Brittany Ferries).
I need my fix of Dick so I've had to come looking for you here.
Please, please keep us updated as to how you are fairing (I have a terrible fear that Mr Murdoch is holding you hostage)
The world just won't be the same without Twitter or without it's prize Twit.
For now, dear Dicky,
Lucy xxxxx
Dick, my favorite Welsh Film is "Dai Another Day" starring Pierce Bronwyn & Halle Barry. I am surprised to see it is not on your llist.
Lucy, you flatter me almost too much. I try my best to keep everybody updated but there are only so many hours in the day and at least eight of those are required for personal maintenance. However, I've just released my new album so I hope you'll be seeing more of me in the media in the coming weeks.
Anonymous, you clearly don't realise that 'Dai' is the Welsh form of 'Dick' and I refuse to mock Dicks. However, on this occasion, I'll permit it and praise you ingenuity. What about 'Live and Let Dai' too?
A few titles gathering dust behind the VHS in the Hogan household....
The Llandeilo That Time Forgot
The Bridgends Of Madison County
The Dylan Thomas Crown Affair
Barry Lyndon
Evans Can Wait
Les Amants du Pontypool
Ebbw Vale Tide
Philadlphia Bennett Story
