Has anyone seen the silent The Passion of Joan of Arc?

A few weeks ago I watched My Life to Live which shows a scene from this (and I thought just that one scene looked like a masterpiece) and then I happened to catch the whole thing on TCM last Sunday. Amazing.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Okay, love Paul Bettany more now.

Paul Bettany is in great shape. The 6-foot-3 British actor definitely looks the part of a tennis pro, but the star has an definite aversion to working out.

"I get into a gym and there's heavy things to lift and I go, 'I could do this or I could go home and read and book,' and I'm out of the gym like that," says the handsome blond.

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

I also loved his bum shoulder excuse. Nummy treat.

Star Wars, yay:

Some of the actors who appeared in the prequels have reportedly been inserted into some of the scenes in the original films, and Lucas has also introduced "subtle changes" into additional scenes.

Or not.

Lucas obviously did not read the fine print, then he lost the fiddle contest.

Is he messing with Anakin's death scene in Return of the Jedi? Goddamnit.

then he lost the fiddle contest.

There was someone at DragonCon in a devil-like looking costume, and I stared at him for a few minutes, trying to figure out what he was supposed to be, exactly. Then I saw the golden fiddle and realized he was the Devil Who Went Down to Georgia.

My understanding is that now CGI hayden will replace whoever played dead Vader in the ghostly heroes lineup. But I very much doubt the auteur will stop there.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
