In keeping with my “The System Keeps Us Blind” affinities and high regard for alliteration, I’d like to highly recommend “V for Vendetta”. Awesome movie. That’s all I’ll say except for giving you an excerpt of how the main character introduces himself:

“Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is it vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose so let me simply add that it’s my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V.”

I sent this quote to my friend and he said “Vot a Vanker.”

Alliteration, there’s no finer form of flattery.
