Just a heads up - you might want to update the article, Anne McCaffrey has been dead since 2011.

Don’t think so, it’s the musical Bugsy Malone about rival mafia gangs in prohibition NYC, in which all the parts are played by children - incidentally (or not so incidentally) the young Jodie Foster starred in the movie version, so maybe it was also a nod to the previous episode’s director?

Yes! Another person who thinks Kathleen Madigan is awesome. I like Iliza Schlesinger too, and Jackie Kashian is hilarious.

I have no idea who Lady Victoria Hervey is, but I find myself kinda liking her 80s tennis dress, especially in the completely unlikely combination with the cape. Also her shoes are lovely AND THEY’RE FLAT which is why I bow to her and her rebel-ness. I really don’t get why all the actresses at Cannes don’t band…

I _love_ Blood Roses era Tori. Boys for Pele speaks to my soul.

That’s okay - I know her voice is not for everyone. I just love how piercing it is. Like a really really cold and bright day when at first you feel like you can’t breathe because the air is so cold and then it makes you feel totally awake and alive.

Joanna Newsom does.

Underwhelmed here too. Gorgeous to look at, but not really engaging. A bit theatrical as opposed to cinematic, if you get my meaning. I suppose they were trying to recreate not only the look and feel of the era, but also the acting style.

Duncan Jones is 44. Alexandria is 15.

Call in sick to work for a week. Reach out to your most trusted friends and talk it over with them. Try to eat and sleep. Go outside for fresh air and the opportunity to move your body. Write down all of your tortured thoughts in a journal. Meditate.

Hm. What I’ve taken away from the discussion is that Americans have different POVs on the matter. Doesn’t that mean that French people might too? I’m not French, but my mother tongue is German which also has the formal (Sie = Vous) and informal (Du = Tu) form of address, and we have the same discussions about it. Some…

I came across this expression in the Eighties TV show Fame, which I binge-watched a few years ago (best time machine if you want to go back to the Eighties for a little while. Seriously). There was this episode centered around one of the dance teachers, an older white woman, who was accused of racist bias against one…

No mention of the Merlin books? I loved Wicked Day just for the fact that it depicted Mordred as the hero (or at least human) as opposed to the stereotypical villain he’s resigned to in nearly all other interpretations of the Arthurian saga.

Apart from the rider's demands being very reasonable, I am absolutely appalled that the college paper published the rider. You DO NOT publish a contract, especially when you're working for one of the involved parties! That is so unprofessional, it blows my mind. Jack White and his management have every right to be…

Had to IMDB the guy cause I had a hunch that he might have become a well-known actor after Lebowski... and voilà, it's Mark Pellegrino! #offtopic

I disagree. Anger is the only understandable reason to hit someone. It is not right and someone who gets so angry repeatedly that they hit people definitely has a problem. But if it happens once, you're so mad or shocked that for a moment you see red and slap your child - that is far more human and understandable even…

Excuse me, how is this possible? This is a house rule, not a state law. Can anybody just set up some random rules and the cops will arrest anyone who breaks them? What about a shop owner who doesn't want his employees taking cigarette breaks? Will the cops come and arrest an employee who's caught smoking? This is…

I put on eyeliner and apply mascara.

I get a horrible vibe from those - the dresses, but also the color palette and style of the magazine pages. Are the eighties back? *shiver* Am I back in time? And why couldn't I be thrown back into a COOL decade, like, say, the late sixties?!
