My grandmother and all her sisters had it, and being a woman increases my chances to inherit it so I'm scared shitless too. But damn it if I quit booze. A glass (or more) of luscious red wine or some golden whisky are one of the few pleasures of my life. May the odds be ever in my favor, right?

Jesus, Mohd, why did you have to put the Yo there? And banning Jon Bon Jovi and especially Limp Bizkit is not such a bad thing, I would say it's a service to humanity.

I'd recommend Thirst by Park Chan-Wook. All around insanity and magnificence, really bloody and violent in that delightful Korean style. If you are not familiar with that particular cinema, prepare yourself for some extreme stuff. I also liked the new Fright Night, it's pretty funny and light and I love the actors,

Or sarcoidosis!

I have the same issue with David Lynch. I love Mulholland Drive but I don't really enjoy all that much any of his other movies. I can appreciate them on an intellectual level, but I always feel this emotional remove from them. Still, I call myself a fan.

May he rest in peace. He was a great director and Angels in America is always going to be one of the most dear and special works of art to me.

I really like this column, the articles should be more frequent. And it is obvious A. A. Dowd has so much more fun and puts a lot more thought in writing these than reviews for current movies.

I love the formula you have for these things. Create these clever little dirty jokes at first and then BAAM, knock us out with some implied gay sex. That always cements those upvotes. Keep 'em coming, Compactica.

Glacial and dull are the last words I'd think to describe Fellini's films. Wild and flamboyant, dizzying and passionate and sometimes incredibly tender are the words I'd use. But then Fellini's one of my favorite directors, and he's not for everybody. So don't feel bad, there are a lot of people who find his films

This season is a big letdown for me (mostly because of Katrina's preciousness and her complete lack of chemistry with anybody) but if there's one thing I enjoyed immensely, is Crane's new hairstyle. He looks so much sexier with those flowing locks.

Dowd gets to review Dumb and Dumber To? That must be some kind of cosmic joke. Poor guy, he must be screaming internally in desperation.

Well yes, but that movie had Jeanne Moreau in the the title role and she is marvelous. And it is similar in the sense that The Bride Wore Black wasn't that good of a movie either. A Truffaut clunker in my opinion, if such a thing can be imagined.

Generalization is never a good thing. Surely there are many Russians out there that welcome and embrace gay people. And surely there are plenty of Americans who are closet homophobes, now that is no longer socially acceptable to hate gay people in their country.

Cannes audiences offer standing ovations to all kinds of shit and boo amazing films. Cannes Film Festival is not some all-knowing cinema god.

I quite liked this episode, but that's maybe because I don't care about Doctor Who not following actual science enough. I love fantasy and seeing those golden specks I was reminded of Dust from Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials and I was thrilled. If you add that extra layer about Dust from those books I think the

Eva Green is too over-the-top for a film by Gregg Araki? Well… those are some big words.

I AM GROOT!

He has really intense eyes and he's a bit frightening, so I like him a lot. Yeah, great news.

Maybe they'll bring her back for some flashback incesty sex? Fingers crossed.

At least is a break from Iñárritu's formula, without the intersecting story structure and the inflated, manipulative bleakness that wants to pass as profundity. After years, I can say I'm looking forward to one of his movies.
