So it wasn't safe, then?
Dammit, I was rushing to the end to make this joke.
The money was too good. I got stupid.

My primary memory of McDowell is not of a role, but of him chortling to upset fans about killing Shatner's character. Which strikes me as extremely low-class, though I'm not particularly a Shatner fan myself.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Yeah, I definitely remember him being an ass about the whole Star Trek thing. And it didn't help that the movie sucked.

Uncertainty could be our guiding light.
I saw The Rose last night for the first time. Is it too late to take the Oscar back from Sally Field and give it to Bette?

You don't like Sally? You don't really like her?

Always Anti-fascist!
I thought she was great. but also, Bette was robbed. But when my mom joined the teacher's union, I called her Norma Rae for a week.

Interesting movie news...
2005 will see the release of Brokeback Mountain, Ang Lee's new movie about gay cowboys played by Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal. Anne Hathaway (the chick from "The Princess Diaries") and Michelle Williams (the chick from "Dawson's Creek") star as their wives. Also on the cast are Linda Cardellini ("Freaks and Geeks," "Scooby Doo"), and Kate Mara (Vanessa on "Nip/Tuck"). The film's based on the short story of the same name. Apparently, Jake Gyllenhaal got a body double for the nude scenes, but Heath did not.
Anne Hathaway and Bijou Phillips are starring in "Havoc," which should come out late this year. It's about two girls obsessed with gang culture, and there's lots of sex and nudity, and possibly an NC-17 rating. Yay, nakedness!
Back to gay movie news: AICN is reporting on Johnny Depp's new movie Libertine, in which he plays a gay painter or something, and there's "graphic man-kissing."
AICN also has an article on Return of the Living Dead 4 & 5, which should have a lot of gorey goodness; and another article on Matt Stone and Trey Parker wanting to remake their student film "Cannibal: The Musical."

I thought Sally was great too - and deserving of that Oscar. Bette was a bit overwrought for my taste, but those kind of movies are sooooo predictable, and I've only got so much patience for folks on a self-destructive binge. (Watched Less Than Zero on cable the other night and kept thinking of Robert Downey's character "Dude, just die already.")

You want Bijou Phillips obsessed with gang culture (with a side-o-Robert Downey Jr. and nudity?) rent Black & White, James Toback's improvised whatevah. (I always want to type Vic Taback there. Huh.)
The Mike Tyson scenes make me want to bite someone's ear off. Or hit the eject button, which ever comes first.
