The Sixth Day offers action in the Arnold Schwarzenegger style. Well, not right away. Ah-nuld is no killer robot this time. He's Adam Gibson, a charter pilot who likes being a homebody with his wife (Wendy Crewson) and daughter (Taylor-Anne Reid). Then he gets cloned. A billionaire bad guy (Tony Goldwyn), in league with a scientist (Robert Duvall), is playing God for fun and profit. Adam gets pissed — of course — and whatever satirical digs director Roger Spottiswoode (Tomorrow Never Dies) hoped to take at genome technology quickly degenerate into the usual bang-bang.

    “Help Me”

    Joni Mitchell | 1974

    Joni Mitchell wrote and recorded this song for her album Court and Spark, but she had to switch from her regular band to make the song sound exactly the way she wanted. "I had attempted to play my music with rock & roll players," she told Rolling Stone. "They’d laugh, 'Awww, isn't that cute? She's trying to teach us how to play.'" Mitchell switched to a jazz band, Tom Scott’s L.A. Express, and scored the biggest hit of her career in the process.
