That one just arrived in my mailbox. I've been meaning to see it for years and this just makes me all the more excited.

Way underrated movie, as I recall. Paul Newman dealing with the drunken doctor is a heartbreakingly awesome scene.

If I might diverge from the wonderful Mr. Keach, whose performance in Fat City is one of the all-time greats, I'm delighted by his revelation that Bruce Dern is the star of the new Alexander Payne movie. I've been watching some of Dern's old work lately and wishing someone would write him a great comeback role. Even

Yeah, I like "Art Crawl," but I've never quite gotten its status as the gold standard for this show. It actually seems like a potentially off-putting episode for newcomers, what with all the anuses.

She was inscrutably mute on that point.

There was also "Sulfur Smells Bad" and "Why do peanuts make my face swell?"

"You know what else your science project needs?"

But they come with your choice of topping!

When I worked in a theater in high school, people walked out of both Sudden Death and Face/Off because there wasn't enough hockey in them.

Hey, it's Jeff Daniels from The Purple Rose of Cairo!

I only attended Royal Rangers, a creepier, Christianer Boy Scouts knock-off. Alas, I wound up quitting after a few weeks because I decided I'd rather stay home and watch a Garfield special.

Cotton Fitzsimmons is deeply wounded.

Hey, I think I follow you on Twitter.

I once saw a guy dive off a 3-foot stage in a small punk club. He was too drunk to notice that nobody was paying attention to/prepared to catch him and thus bellyflopped hard onto the concrete floor. I think he was ultimately OK but he could have easily done some real damage. He had to be carried out of the club as it
