Yes! As I recall, the tension between the in-laws wasn’t the kind of comedic or dramatic tension that served very well (for Patricia’s character).
How about a couple of shows about two women divorcees?

I loved Ebert growing up and remember his review of this (I had a book of his reviews that I used to help me seek out movies I wanted to see). Kind of surprised this is being brought up again after all these years. It’s an interesting discussion about what is exploitation, especially if the actor herself never felt it…

Just wait until you hear how long ago the Holocaust was

I lurk as much as any reader? I think you make my point precisely by describing the lowering of expectations of public figures, including cultural, accomplished by former President Trump as “irrelevant” to a discussion of their work.

‘Amnesia’ was manifestly evident in someone’s decision to have him present a SAG award to the predominantly Asian cast of Everything, Everywhere...

I think he peaked at Boogie Nights. He was very good there, and never would be that good again.

I would say the only way to make him face consequences is at the barrel of a gun.

I thought he was... fine. Like a lot of actors who catch a lot of shit for being limited, he’s good in the right role and/or with the right director (See also: Kristen Stewart). He did well enough with the part, but I think he is to this movie what Cameron Diaz is to Gangs of New York: Not terrible, certainly not as…

Ah, Mark Wahlberg. Poster boy for our amnesiac, peri-Trump pop culture.

“I wouldn’t cut my hair and Marty was pissed off. He was like, ‘You’ve got to cut your fucking hair,’ and I was, ‘I don’t give a fuck.’

His nomination for Dignam was the definition of a throwaway Oscar nom. 

Not remotely? The Blinders are Irish/’Gypsy’. That’s not remotely, even if they’re living in Birmingham.

Yeah it seems like an intimacy coordinator-type advocate should be present on any set or behind the scenes with child actors, musicians, etc. Look at girls like Spears and Lohan who were basically piggybanks for parents who clearly didn’t have their children’s interests at heart.

I mean, it’s remotely Irish, since the characters are Romanichal (or something similar; it’s been a while) Irish immigrants and Feinians played a big part in the first season.

Trust me.....they don’t.  Fucking ghouls.

You mean Drake Bell, the guy who was sexually and physically abusive to children in his own right? Yeah, I struggle to sympathize with him at this point. I guess that’s sociopathy to you.

Well to be fair he was, likely though not convicted, of also probably attempting to abuse a minor. So there is that.

It’s one of those articles where there is no sympathetic figure.

A person writing letters on behalf of a diddler is a choice they made.

Well I hope Ghislaine Maxwell “gets her shit together” too.
