Hey, I'm Hairy Beaver!

Great work! And they're three well-stated points. You could put them on a t-shirt.

Yeah, fair enough, there are lots of wild events in the second half, it just becomes too episodic, and then this happened, and then this happened, and then the goddamn baby falls off a horse, and on and on.

That's a good question—do you remember? I can't recall whether she had the overseer types talking in slang.

Can I try? I see it as two problems:

Is that your master's thesis? Cause you came with that pretty full formed, lol.

In much the same way "Freebird" sounds different in the South (it's not a song, it's a hymn), so too is GWTW a different thing altogether among older Southern women. The big dresses, a party under the Willow out on the front lawn, mint julips, Scarlett rising on her own power (Steel Magnolias baby!), Rhett Butler…

It's like Oliver Stone's U-Turn, except less nauseating.

Read the book on that score. Scarlett is near Lecter-levels of socio/psychopathy, 100% lacking in empathy or morality. And she's not even likable.

My mother, an intelligent and liberal lady, turns into unquestioning goo when the movie's on. She's from Atlanta, a little younger than the movie—to her, it plays like Cinderella.

And she's just the ultimate 13-year-old girl. 900 pages of middle-school dating.

Sooo, if I hear you correctly, you love it when you're baked?

Exact same story except I rented Over the Top because I enjoy masturbating to scenes of arm wrestling.

What a fantastic article, thank you!

Some of the greatest mixes of all time, and still a wonder how they cleared the rights.

What the hell happens in that final scene of Clockwork Orange, the weird flash of people in Victorian clothes?

Don't forget, too, that many people, myself included, completely missed the fact that the creatures at the end are supposed to be later-stage robots. I thought they were aliens, and thus couldn't figure out what the fuck was going on.

Wow, he was HORRIBLE at Coachella—shouty, overly abrasive, absolutely not funky or fun. I was frankly astounded at how shitty he sounded, couldn't believe people would stand there and listen to that.

Lithgow is his usual awesome self in that one.

We're in the pipe, five by five.
