I have to do something amazing in the next four years so that I can loudly and publicly refuse to meet Trump.

I think I’d act like I was going to shake his hand and then do the “pull away at the last second and run hand through hair” while saying something about not shaking hands with nazis.

The only reason I’d ever want to meet him would be to try to get in a knee to his junk before the secret service tackled me.

My thoughts exactly. He’s already suffered a lot; why should he have to meet this exploding circus peanut garbage fire?

Can you imagine Donald trying to comfort the families of soldiers who have been killed overseas? “I like people who weren’t killed. Losers!”

What’s the Over/Under on how long it will take for Trump to attack Professor Clark on Twitter?

I wouldn’t want to meet with him either. I’d probably come away feeling worse than I did before.

I’m going. Hitler isn’t taking power without my protest. I will be there, making history.

Any Jezzies planning on going? There is a charter bus going from my city. It’s like $140 which isn’t much but still a bit of a stretch me but I’m considering it.

Domestic abuse is beginning to seem like a litmus test for the Trump administration. You can only be considered if you’re a domestic abuser. I mean, Donald himself has a fairly well-documented history in the department.

Fassbender and McQueen (director of Shame) also basically talked the entire movie through before filming even began. Fassbender knew pretty much exactly what he was going to have to do, how much nudity and what kind of (simulated) sex acts were involved. And he was, you know, acting. Schneider wasn’t given that

Right on

I had never heard of that one, just what he did to Hedren, but knowing Hitchcock I’m not surprised. I wonder if it was partially retaliation for rejecting his advances the way it was for Hedren?

I wanna see like 10 buckets of diarrhea dumped on him for a genuine reaction. Why are my wants less important than his pursuit of perfect film?

“I wanted her to feel humiliation” sounds exactly like what a rapist would say. So there’s that.

I mean what he’s basically saying is “I didn’t want to make a movie and with actors and stuff, just a snuff film.”

Friedkin also pulled this crap with the adult actors on The Exorcist. Fired guns, slapped actors collaborated with techs without consulting Burstyn to the point that she was seriously injured. Blair also came away with a back injury after they did not listen to her begging them to stop that still affects her today.

I think Kimberly Pierce handled this responsibly in “Boys Don’t Cry”. The rape scene in that movie is really awful and violent, but she protected her actors as much as possible by making sure they knew exactly how the scene would go, and they talked it over together, as well. And Hillary Swank was able to convey the

Translation: I wanted to film a rape, and this was as close as I could get. Because it wasn’t really about the “art”.

Right? Not only rape, but the film theory behind his “justification” is a million percent bullshit. It was simply abuse for the purpose of their personal power and enjoyment.
