Austin Powers - International Man of Mystery



Entree: Mini Beef Wellingtons & Salad
Dessert: English Toffee

Movie:
Elizabeth Hurley's beauty is ageless but unfortunately this film did not stand the test of time as successfully. I hate to admit that because I grew up on SNL during it's last great run which looking back had a lot to do with the pre-internet funneling of media.  Everyone watched it together or separately & talked about it the following week.  Back to the movie though...the ironic element is that Austin Powers having been frozen for 20+ years is tragically politically incorrect yet when you add another 20+ years to the movie you find some it has some politically incorrect elements of it's own.  The positives on looking back would be seeing gems in the making such as Will Ferrel & the obvious James Bond references.  Additionally you will remember tag lines you often used or still use around certain company.
