"I wouldn't trade places with Don Sutherland for all the tofu in Portland."

I am actually interested in the film, because I am interested in that famous night. Just to clarify, me being "bothered" by the Shelley thing in the Frankenstein movie is due to Hurt's character terrible time-travelling etiquette as mentioned by kamino above. Unless your friendly warning is due to something else in…

I want to take advantage of this brilliant newswire to ask if anybody has seen "The Big Heist", a 2001 TV movie that dramatizes the Lufthansa Heist? I haven't personally, but when I watched a promo for it on A and E about eight or seven years ago, I was interested, mostly because I wanted to watch a different…

Hurt having sex with Mary Shelley disturbed me for some reason. Also, the lurid over the top gore (I was between 10 and 13 when I saw this on TV)

I've been catching up on the French canon during vacation and "Le Cercle Rouge" was my favorite among the ones I watched. Last year I watched "Le Samourai" twice, and while it is pretty hard to rank them (due to the viewing advantage held by the latter film) I think "Le Cercle Rouge" wins, thanks to Volonte, one of my…

"Look. I said fuckin' look at 'im! Look at what happened to ya friend 'cause you gotta go against the way the things go down. You treat what I try to do for you like shit? You don't wanna work for me, what's wrong with you? And then, you carry a piece, in my house! You one of those burned-out demolished wackos in the…

One of my favorite movies. Everything about it is amazing. I could go on spreading superlatives about the directors, the actors, the cinematography, the score…I couldn't do it justice. It hits me every time. It just looks like no other film I've seen, and it sounds like a story like that would sound in the real world…

Wow…now this is a twist! This made my morning. I hope it works out for you and I look forward to that interview. I think my personal pantheon of favorite character actors will be complete now with Smith, who has quite a selection of interesting roles.

Oh yes, the kind of guy he played: retired cop, a bit of a prick, manly man that clashes with left-wing son and has a mousy wife. What happens to him is pretty awful, definitely a shocking, sort-of sad moment.

Yeah, Ted Levine! One of my favorite actors. He was actually my favorite thing about "Monk". He played Captain Stottlemeyer with a lot of warmth and dry sense of humor and he always had this paternal vibe that fit well with the character, who is sort of like the ideal police official our societies should have. It was…

I have always found the USA's fascination with the story of the Mexican Conquest interesting. I think it reached fever pitch in the 19th century, with the live remake in 1846 and by William Prescott's historical account. Every time this subject comes up online, I always see thorough discussions about the subject, like…

For months, I've considered Ignatiy to be the best of the current critics. This article (especifically, his refusal to play along with the "overrated " nonsense, a superlative that I despise) just strenghtens my appreciation.

That Emmy Rossum review made me take a break from the article. Sorry.
