The film does show Chicago in a fantastic way and it really is beautiful to watch. The movie kind of blows though, IMO. Andy Garcia saying "RAA-cine" for Racine and not designating north or south, the stupid subplot where they ride horses in Canada, the fact that Frank Nitti shot himself, etc, etc.

Manager (Graham Chapman): The great thing about Ken is that he's almost totally stupid.

I think of the ""Streets Of Sorrow / Birmingham Six" lyrics often when I read about the President and his people:

According to our man Wikipedia, Portman said this about Ashton:

I refuse to acknowledge a world that exists with these two Mike Myers movies as well as the Godfather III. I like it better that way.

Here is something I think we can all agree on: Margaret Thatcher was a cunt. That is all.

Great show. Loved the part when Jay Mohr's limo is pulling onto the lot and the security guard is played by David Leisure of "Joe Isuzu" fame. When Jay mentions that he looks a lot like David Leisure, Leisure says he is David Leisure but he's "just between gigs."

A great movie. I love the scene where some news reporter says something like "the president is right now meeting with his advisors," or something. Then they cut away to Nixon watching "Love American Style" while eating dinner alone. Fantastic.

I always liked Amy Poehler's joke that "Ikea" is Swedish for divorce. Maybe couples would stay together by taking psychedelics before trying to put that shit together.

Its a great movie, though. Steve Zahn's character is trying to have sex with a woman he met in the town while he was pretending to be gay.
Girl: But I thought you were gay.

I have not read this yet, but thank you, Nathan, from the bottom of my heart.

Billy Crystal would suck a cock to win a sack race

Late to the party - but Silver Dagger for Dolly's best

Billy Crystal would suck a cock to win a sack race.

For some reason when I read your comment, I thought it said:"some pictures of him getting drunk in Tijuana with some monkeys," which would have been very amusing. I like to picture him doing things like that.

Yes, you are correct, sir. In America, its all about the sweet, sweet money and not about if you went to Eton or who you're great grandfather was. As Steve Martin put it in "All of Me": Just because my grandfather didn't rape the environment and exploit the workers doesn't make me a peasant. And it's not that he…

What it there was an open bar during the reception?

Whenever I hear that word, I remember my dad describing a bar near our house selling schooners of Schlitz for 75 cents. That is all.

I was such a snob that I refused to watch this and then I saw the dinner party episode at Jan and Michael's condo and then this one. I'm big enough to admit I was wrong. Lots of great classics in the first 4 to 5 years.

I am with you Nebully. Those shitty shitty movies will never be shown to my children. You have to be careful, though. Someone once took a couple of my kids to see the Fat Albert movie and now my kids don't know the greatness of the real thing (although Bill Cosby is kind of fucking that up too)
