You know why I like actin' in these Christopher Nolan films, bloke? 
I may be gettin' older, but these Oscar-nominated actresses stay the same age…

Is it too late to save DeNiro? Look at Gene Hackman as an example. He had some stinkers toward the end of his career, but he did give us Royal Tenenbaum, one of his greatest performances as well. Maybe Silver Linings Playbook will end up being that for DeNiro, but I hope not.

Mrs. Bivins: "Jesus, Michael, the news here…Chris Kelly is dead…Do you know about this?"
Biv: "It's over. We're safe"
Mrs. Bivins (quietly) "Michael, was this you? What happened?"

And after this, I have to watch Weird Al's "Smells Like Nirvana" video. Maybe the best thing he's ever done.

And instead of waiting in line for the phones, we're waiting for Twitter to catch up.

Pete has his boundaries, and people acting inappropriately in any fashion is a big one.

Next week on Mad Men: Cooper squares off with union boss Bob Benson

Thankfully before the blackface routine this time

and get constantly outmatched by Adam Levine on The Voice.

Most of my memories with my dad during my high school years involve him taking my brother and me to the movies. The Fugitive, Jurassic Park, Cliffhanger, Hot Shots Part Deux!, and 8-time Academy Award winner On Deadly Ground.

It's not really expressed on the show, but Don may be struggling that he's no longer even the provider for his kids. That said, at least he doesn't beat them, plus he took Bobby to see Planet of the Apes (twice)!. My dad took me to see Major League when I was 10.

That's okay, Harry Crane couldn't tell them apart either.

Can I play the piano anymore?
