The first 2/3 are the dream-fantasy of a grieving & guilt-wracked Naomi Watts. Watts herself confirmed this interpretation on Inside the Actors' Studio. It doesn't really ruin the movie, because the movie is sublime and transcends interpretation, and because the most nightmarish expressionist projections — the tiny

I've always hated the James Hurley song with a great deal of fondness. I have an MP3 and my ex and I used to tease each other by putting it on in the car, which caused equal parts groaning and singing along.

I like this prediction, except that Jacoby's rig is for Youtube-style videos, not radio.

Never trust a Hogwallop.

That story American Lit professors use to blow their students'minds by revealing that the ghost … was the narrator all along! She's crazy, see! It's all in her head!!

This is similar to the explanation that supposedly makes sense of Mulholland Drive/ruins it. I hate cheap twists like this — Fight Club, Jacob's Ladder, Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge, The Yellow Wallapaper. If this is what's happening, I will be really angry.

Audrey was never a favorite character for me, so her screechy return last week didn't affect me much one way or another. But her sudden turn into confusion and uncertainty this week was so shockingly moving — maybe the most affecting moment in the return so far. I suddenly find myself caring about her, maybe for the

Option 2. After the first call she doesn't repeat the address the callers give her, or send a car, because it's all the same address.

Becky's frustrated scream on the phone was pure coked-up old-school Bobby Briggs.

I'd just as soon kiss a wookie.

The song in Ford's office was Claude Debussy's … wait for it … "Reverie."

I love Turturro, but Gandolfini had such a unique talent for combining repulsiveness and magnetivity, I do believe his performance would have justified the disproportionate focus on Stone. Still, that wouldn't have fixed the flimsy writing of Chandra's character.

"They didn't go deep on this, but she was basically a newbie lawyer who had probably done nothing but doc review and motion work and she is now first chairing a murder case. That would fuck with anyone's head."

I love a grungy Wurly.

Yeah, I always thought the first two notes were guitar and the syncopated part electric piano. They started using the Rhodes piano a lot around this time. But now I'm looking at live versions of Talk Show Host on Youtube, and it's all Thom's guitar. So maybe I'm way off.

"Lovefool" and that whole Cardigans album is super-sweet on first blush but becomes increasingly pathetic & even scary the closer you listen. I love it.

I think that's a Rhodes electric piano and not an electric guitar (as the review says) playing half of that riff.

But didn't they put you literally in the action? Literally?

Django UnFettered

I loved this show as a kid, and I was excited to watch it on Netflix. But Netflix uses a Joe Cocker soundalike version of the opening theme, and I couldn't watch past it. The sound of that opening theme was so much a part of the feeling of watching the show when it aired.
