Ah, there it is! I had Sons of the Desert at #6. Bet I was one of the highest voters for it.

Herod's Law was 9 for me. Only one that I didn't really like. Sons of the Desert was my 5 I truly did like it quite a bit.

I did like Herod’s Law but this was a tough hall.
Sons Of The Desert was my 9. Just not my kind of humor.

I liked Interiors another neat chance to see something I hadn't seen before. It was my #2
A Hero was my #8 It just didn't say much to me.

My wife really liked The Verdict which is always a plus as she doesn't always like the HoF movies. We've seen it twice I liked it too. It was my #3

At first I thought The Verdict could be my last place because it did nothing for me the first time. Like it much more now, my #5.

Sorry to whoever nominated Days of Heaven but I hated it...But everyone else seemed to love it, so I guess it was a good choice. I watched Malick's The Thin Red Line last night and hated that too. Days of Heaven was my last place film. I don't think Malick's films are for me.

The Verdict- Torgo
A Hero- Phoenix

Sons of the Desert- Allaby
The Duellists- Siddon
Herod's Law- Wylde
Here's how I originally guessed at the start of the HoF:
Sons of the Desert 1933 - Allaby Correct
The Duelists 1977 - Phoenix
Days of Heaven 1978 - Torgo
Interiors 1978 - Sean
The Verdict 1982 - Siddon
Herod's Law 1999 - Cricket
Gone Baby Gone - Rauldc Correct
A Hero 2021 - Wyldesyde
I only guessed two correct, pretty crummy guessing!
Good hall everyone! Good job hosting Raul.
So who and when is the next one up...
I lost my ballot so if Raul wants to post it that's fine. I think I sent it in in the middle of night.
Verdict, Sunset Blvd, Duelists, and Gone baby Gone I gave A's to
Hero was just a spot below
Interiors and Days of Heaven were flawed but enjoyable
I didn't care of Herod's Law and I hated Sons of the Desert

I hope to join, it just depends if we get anything really extremely graphic. This last HoF was fine. If I join I have a small unknown film picked out, I think people will find it interesting but I doubt it would do really well.

I'm so late the party is over and everyone has gone - just deflated balloons and 3/4 empty champagne glasses.
1. A Hero
2. Sunset Boulevard
3. The Verdict
4. Interiors
5. Gone Baby Gone
6. Days of Heaven
7. The Duellists
8. Herod's Law
9. Sons of the Desert
I knew Sunset Boulevard would win - you'd have needed to go BIG to compete with that. Really enjoyed seeing The Verdict, Interiors, The Duellists and Gone Baby Gone again.
And a huge thanks to Raul - very smooth Hall of Fame!
Here's my ballot. I enjoyed all of them, even Herod's Law, which is last just because one of them had to end up in last place. It's always nice to see something I've never heard of before and from a country I haven't seen that many movies from.
1. Days of Heaven
2. Sunset Blvd.
3. The Verdict
4. Interiors
5. A Hero
6. Gone Baby Gone
7. The Duellists
8. Sons of the Desert
9. Herod's Law
