True Lies
With everyone who thinks that "sense of humor" is actually
an incredibly mean streak.
Recall that the "hero" deceives his wife into doing a striptease for a man she thinks is a total stranger, on pain of death. It was a needlessly cruel fantasy.
The day my husband thinks that my performing a striptease empowers me is the day my husband dies of suffocation from a feather boa being stuffed down his throat.
I watched some of
Hart's War
on Fx last night while waiting for the baseball game. From what little I watched, I can see there's a reason it disappeared without a trace. It not only sucked, it pandered, and implied that its audience has never seen
Stalag 17.
Most I remember about
True Lies
is that it had wee Eliza Dushku as Arny & JLC's daughter. She was cute and the usual movie-kid-spunky.
I Netflixed
The Mother
over the weekend. I thought it was going to be about gentle exploration of the sexuality of an older woman. I mean, OK, exploration of sexuality part is there, but it is anything but gentle. There are parts of it that are downright savage, with the kind of emotional violence that makes it really tough to watch. Hella good movie though. Ann Reid is frighteningly good. Plus, Daniel Craig? Is a sexy bitch.
I watched Ladykillers over the weekend.
why?
Lexine, we are again, the same person.
We saw it, too and, well, aside from a couple of funny bits that I can't remember now, it was a totaly waste of the Cohen brothers time.
Aimee - the awful part is that I couldn't turn it off - I kept hoping that it would turn around, but no...and....just.....no.
Also rented the Bull Durham DVD (Yes, I own it on tape) and watched with the Kostner and Robbins commentary. Now that was funny, it was like sitting and watching the movie with them.
I only half paid attention. I slept through some of it even. I was exhausted.
OMG, I love Hugh Jackman. That is all.

I owned the tape for years, and yet one of the first DVDs I bought when I got my DVD player was the special edition of Bull Durham.
Oh, god, the pee story made me laugh until tears.

Me too. All I need to know in life, I learned from [Bull Durham] Crash Davis.
