I am glad for the Kaspar Hauser inclusion; oddly haunting in a way I have not seen in any other film…

Not familiar with him, but I like him after reading the interview. The thought of him screaming at Alex Trebek gives him a pass in my book..

Babs is always great.. she can be funny or seductive with the best of them..

If you think the term is bad, wait till you hear what passes for the music…

I would totally watch a Nora spin off. Incredible performance by Carrie Coon. Far and away the best episode so far..

She didn't get a Tony nomination last year for nothing…

Richard Price is a good writer. I loved 'The Wanderers' and the film adaptation is on my top 10 all time favorite list. I have never seen another film capture that time and place so well. A smoking young Karen Allen didn't hurt either…

Don't be so quick to judge public urinators, they may want to avoid uromysitisis poisoning!

I thought 'The Long Morrow' was rather effective, with an ironic ending that O. Henry would have appreciated…

"You'll become one of those hunchbacked, lonely old men, sitting in the corner of a crowded cafe, mumbling to yourself, "My ass is twitching. You people make my ass twitch."

It Stinks!

French Kiss gets a pass for Kevin Kline's performance as an oily French slacker…

sorry I missed the mention…

For a much better film on the same kind of scenario, you may want to check out John Sayles' Return of the Secaucus Seven…

Damn, I missed Crankshaft. I should catch it as Philip Baker Hall is always great. He was one of the greatest one off characters ever as the library cop in Seinfeld…. "I've got a flash for you, joy boy. Partytime is over."

Norman Fell begs to differ while making yet another homophobic crack about Jack, while his frustrated wife emasculates him…

by jove, you're right..

First Base!

As a dedicated fan of History Detectives, especially the charming Elyse Luray, this is a delightful way to celebrate Canada Day!

Regarding the 'ugh Larry' factor I'm not sure Jason Biggs has nothing to do with it. Another actor may make him less obnoxious…. suggestions?
