Hate?

But Lowells and Cabots and tha'. Surely they must be daintily sipping their sherry and frowning upon the evils of theatre!

I recall this being the Cannes movie "that you have to see when it comes out."

Wherefore Puritanism? Surely the tradition hasn't disappeared entirely.

At least people have a positive image of Texans: boisterous, sarcastic, stingy, they're truly the Scotland of America.

"BIG JOHHHHHN"

California is the opposite: an unusually strong executive and an unusually strong legislature! Over time, the President Pro Tempore of the Senate (now usually referred to simply as "President") is de facto Prime Minister. Yet the Governor also has powers equivalent to the president of a non-parliamentary country.

Cecile isn't progressive enough to win California. Nobody is.

And it's not like the Governorship of Texas is an important position from a policy perspective. Texas is the closest this country has to a Parliamentary Republic, with the Lieutenant Governor being the real power and the Governor being a figurehead in most circumstances.

I just pretend they're the same person.

Also, since when does body hair come in stitch form?

"It may not have been as sexy as the idea of 300 men standing up to the world's largest army…"

Yeah, the Spartans were fighting to maintain a way of life that we would consider eugenics. Also, Xerxes is a hero to the Persian and the Jews, so these guys can fuck right off until Alexander shows up.

This is unfortunately another case where faithfulness to the legend takes precedence over character or plot in film language.

Liam Neesons!

It is!

Watching this movie is like staring into a fishbowl full of gasoline. Gave me a damn headache.

Are you as drunk as I am???

Hey, I wrote my iMDB bio. Nobody else was going to.

Generic indie movies.
