Genius.
Genius.
I watched "Cavalcade" off of TCM once. It was pretty dull. A bunch of British people making the Stiff Upper Lip face as bad things happen to them. Just to give you a hint, a caption says "April 14, 1912", and there's a scene where two newlyweds on an ocean liner talk about how their life is just perfect and it…
God, that would be a terrible, terrible idea.
That would be great. Not great enough to make all this time justified, God knows, but probably the best ending Fellows could come up with at this point.
This king has 12 more years to reign.
I think it's been established that the dog in Season 1 was a different dog.
Well, yes. #slatepitch
Kitty: I was reading a book the other day.
If Boyhood had won we'd be reading piece after piece about how it's racist because it doesn't have more Mexicans.
"Apollo 13" is awesome.
I just read a hysterically overwrought piece by Dan Kois at Slate saying that this is the worst Oscar travesty in 20 years. Which is stupid.
I still don't get it. Bynum's book is a work of history, recounting the story of a real person who did real things, based (I presume) on primary sources. If I'm a studio exec reading "The Free State of Jones" maybe I think "this is a pretty neat story, this would make a great movie." Why do I have to write Victoria…
Here's something I have long wondered about:
This is a pretty stupid line of thought. We need historians to write non-fictional work. Dramatists, making dramatic works, can take historical liberties and always have. Go read about the liberties Shakespeare took in his history plays.
Or about how an American special forces squad kills Hitler!
Yeah, I thought that was a pretty stupid comment by the writer. Why does "12 Years a Slave" mean no one can make a movie about the Kingdom of Jones?
Really enjoyed "Wild". Should have been more of an Oscar contender.
If Sofia Vergara is in your movie, there's really no excuse to not put her in a dress like that.
I kind of thought the same thing. This movie is probably crap, but Jezebel should be happy that it exists.
In an alternate, better universe, this would be a magnificent piece of lesbian erotica.
