Those are solid gold. That last line of the first one is a beautiful sample waiting to happen. So much fun. The "cool under fire" repartee banter is great. Great stuff. I wonder where these were shown. In movie houses, maybe?

I love hearing old dialogue, but in conjuncture with jujitsu it's just a bit mind-blowing.

Back in the day, Mens magazines, would do spreads of women doing similar stuff, as a way of putting in Bondage for when they are being captured.

They're quite delightful.

I'm in love with the woman in the video on the left. Where can I find a graceful british rose that can kick a lot of ass? Is that too much to ask?
