Err… Yeah. Fixed.

Yeah, I'm not sure I'm right especially since I've never heard anyone else float that theory. But it's something to think about.

What makes the former classmate scene in FARGO works for me—and this is something I didn't pick up on for a long time—is that Marge never tells her husband she's going to meet him. I'm not saying she's wanting to step out on the three-cent guy, but she's at least keeping the meeting to herself and keeping a little bit…

Not a hammer.

Fixed.

By Almendros' telling circa the early-'80s—included in the DVD bookle— he did about 3/4 of the shots in the film then had to leave to shoot a Truffaut film. (The Last Metro? I forget.) Wexler then came on board and finished the film using the guidelines Almendros' laid out for him, some of which were at odds with…

Next week.

As soon as we develop a system that allows me to kick someone via the Internet I'll consider a telecommuter.

Hmm.. Good point. Maybe I was just thinking of that episode where they do the extended homage to TWIN PEAKS. Do you remember that one?

And the problem's on our end. I think we might be experiencing some PC vs. Mac Microsoft Word compatibility issues. They don't always get along so well as those John Hodgman, Justin Long commercials would have you believe.

It's definitely not boring. And Kelly is going for something. I'd rather see an ambitious failure like this than most movies that are out there. Recommended for the curious for sure. But forced to judge it I can't judge it all that glowingly.

Citizengato and Miller: Thanks! It's comments like that that make it worthwhile. I think Scott Tobias did the review. We both saw it at a 10am screening not knowing what to expect and not necessarily expecting that much. Boy were we wrong.

Well…
I was hoping to steal firsties. You guys are fast.

Before we begin…
Let me steal firsties on my own review for this one. Nobody wanted to like this movie more than me. I really liked DONNIE DARKO (even before it was, you know, cool) and I didn't want to be dissuaded by the early bad press this film received. (In fact, apart from the profile referenced above, I stayed…

Part of the demand came from Scott Tobias.

Just to clarify…
We're doing a little housecleaning here at the ol' TV Club, stopping coverage of some shows and adding coverage of others. Steve did a great job covering CHUCK and continues to do a great job with REAPER (which isn't on the chopping block.) We also have plans for him to start covering at least one…

Yes.
You are right. Probably should have touched on that point!

It was weirdly acclaimed.

I liked it too. It's weird, I always forget that it's a Truffaut film because it seems like a bit of an uneasy mixture of what Truffaut does and what a thoughtful science fiction movie has to do but it's still a really solid effort.

Noted. Thanks for the clarification. Reading this got me curious about his more famous books, especially since the original version of VILLAGE OF THE DAMNED is kind of awesome. (The Carpenter version should have been awesome but, alas.)
