Dana! bonny! I thought I was the only person on the planet who'd seen Something The Lord Made! Rickman and Mos Def were both absolutely riveting. And I'm a dreadful sucker for "hidden chapter of history" stories; I couldn't stop thinking abot it for weeks afterward. I don't know for certain that I need to own it, but I definitely need to watch it again.
You're like my fairy godmother, and Santa Claus, and Q all wrapped up into one! Q from Bond, not Star Trek.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I saw Something The Lord Made, too, but I had a hard time getting around Rickman's accent. I also saw Closetland, but I only vaguely remember it. Since I appear to be a wet blanket, I'm going to go out looking for fires to put out now.

No worries. My ardor is unquenchable.

Always Anti-fascist!
No, you're not, JZ. When we had HBO I watched it three times. I thought it was great.(I never knew that story before that movie.)

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
January Man and Blow Dry are a couple of my Rickman faves, too. But his turn in Robin Hood was delicious--he and Michael Wincott, and okay, Freeman, were the best of that movie. And Mastrantonio, of course.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I am officially tired of Judd Apatow and Seth Rogen.

Great Scenes from TV and Film, Told Using Only Typography (and Sound).
These are really neat. Kinematic typography!
