Generally mysteries and science fiction. Specific authors would be Caleb Carr, Robert Frost, Tony Hillerman, Ngaio Marsh, Neal Stephenson, Bruce Sterling and John Case.

Other than Stephenson and Sterling, I don’t care for most science fiction authors. So many of them get caught up in trying to write the next Neuromancer or the next Snow Crash that they forget to include a story. Tom Clancy bores me for the same reason.

When it comes to movies, my favorites are 12 Angry Men, Mediteraneo, The Professional, La Femme Nikita (not the TV show) and Fail Safe (1964) to name a few.

Overall, my taste in movies is somewhat eclectic, but it favors the classics, independent and foreign films over current Hollywood fare. In spite of that, I’m a sucker for Jackie Chan action movies, John Wayne Westerns and the Clint Eastwood spaghetti Westerns. Also, I can never pass up the 80′s teen-angst stuff like Breakfast Club and Sixteen Candles.
