Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

So barehanded is okay?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
For theater folks, our response when Swordfish came out was "Oh, Hugh Jackman, the guy from the London production of "Oklahoma" that got such amazing reviews." I was waiting for him to get into films, because his theater rep. preceded him. So not stunt casting in his case.

What was your response when X-Men came out?

Yes, yes, you can stop slapping me now. I only asked if it was, not claimed it was.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Paige Davis, of Trading Spaces fame, is currently in Chicago. I shit you not.

I just watched It Happened One Night. Is this why scriptwriters think that it's a good idea to do escalating misunderstanding romantic movies, or movies where she bolts at the altar?
Get the FUCK over it. I retract my statement that both devices suck. This movie was a delight, and plausible too. However, I replace that sentiment with "don't EVEN try it." It's been done crappily too many times since then for me to think it's a sensible risk.

D'oh, X-man. Whatever was first.
and isn't IHON lovely film? Got a wonderful relaxed feel to it, which a lot of films of that era lack.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
I really don't understand the Denzel love.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Davis has been a stage actor-singer-dancer for years. She was in the Broadway "Beauty and the Beast." I have no idea why she auditioned for a "presenter"'s slot with a traveling tv makeover show. The schedule can't be any better. Money, maybe?
