    High ratings for the first episode.
    Of course the ratings were high for the first episode. It aired on every HBO channel at the same time. It was the only HBO show for that hour and fifteen minutes.

    With less errors in the article.

    I love the score.
    Every episode.

    The Prestige is based off of a book.

    I don't know.

    I wouldn't claim that he won in any way. If you don't like the film, okay. But you saying "He thinks that he's a provacteur. He's not." rings a little false following the rest of it.
    And the correct analogy, I think, would be if you took a dump in public, but people could only smell it.

    And apparently Toots Sweet the film provoked you.

    He wasn't saying that the film is timeless in the way that people say Citizen Kane it timeless. I believe he was saying that the film doesn't only apply to one time in history. You know, the whole "not limited to the period and place that it depicts."

    I thought he was calling out our desire to be comforted by cinema. As well as for us to question the ideas that movies are not real.

    Maybe we should start singing the praises of
    Jed Wheadon?

    I worked for Murray Hewitt.
