That sounds amazing. What other writers/places did you visit? (I’ve always had a thing for The Mill on the Floss).

I remember reading about this 25 years ago. As you can tell from my user name I’m a bit of a Brontë fan. I’m hoping to finally visit Haworth in the next few years.

True on both counts, though I consider Lynch’s film and the novels two separate but vaguely related entities.

Will we finally get to see Tofutti Klein?

These are exactly my feelings. I was 4 in ‘77 and have loved these movies ever since, but we’re all different people now.

Ear wax extraction vides are where it’s at.

A Christmas Duel by Cyndi Lauper and the Hives. It’s awesome.

Which makes me wonder if Weinstein had something to do with her dry spell. She was very tied up with the Miramax crew.

Oh no, I realize the movie was based on these conspiracy theories but he seriously believes it. Either that or he’s the straightest of straight men. My friend assures me he’s all in.

The funny thing is they did make it into a movie a few years ago, but people really do believe this.

I have a friend who’s stepfather believes in Moon Nazis.
