"It's like Jell-O on springs!"

Hot take, there, buddy.

Maybe, but that's what I like about it. Ernest Lehman was given a laundry list of crazy scenes and had to patch them together into some semblance of a plot. It's like The Big Sleep: the plot is bananas, but it's a great ride.

Yeah, and you'd have to include every other actor for hundreds of years in blackface, including Orson Welles and Ronald Coleman. It's pretty unremarkable for any production before about 1980 or so.

I was a WB intern at the time, so I have it on vinyl.

I was gonna say North By Northwest, but the Nashville Symphony's ahead of me!

"You just gotta open your mind…and learn to play the fuckin' theremin!"

never mind

Well, they did have a ripped-from-the-headlines plot on Law & Order: Criminal Intent with Cynthia Nixon as the Julie Taymor stand-in.

Seriously! I swear her feet never touch the ground when she's dancing with Fred Astaire.

I know exactly what you're talking about. I felt the same way about Marlon Brando: "What? He died? I didn't think he could do that!"

I'm having trouble processing this. I wasn't aware David Bowie was a mere mortal.

No, dear. It's run by a bunch of chuckleheads who think Wikipedia is too liberal.

But a garlic press won't give you fresh nutmeg or citrus zest! Microplane >> garlic press.

"Carol of the Bells." It reminds me of those frenetic strings in the Psycho shower scene. I had to sing it one year at church, for which I will never forgive the choir director.

Actually, it is. It should be "coming on to." "Coming onto" is the…icky one.

Bullshit. MYOF is as much about good movies as bad ones. Commercial failure doesn't always equal artistic failure.

I like how they resurrected the Saul Bass ’70s Warner Bros. logo.

The rancid butter smell at the Uptown Theatre on Connecticut Ave. in DC. It was awful! In 1977!

Is it the Academy, or the studios? If you get both leads nominated, they're likely to split the vote and see the award go to another actor entirely.
