Buffista Movies 3: Panned and Scanned
A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Sherlock, Jr. is playing tonight at the Walter Reade. If you're in the New York area & can make it I urge you to see it. The film is my favorite Buster Keaton and the venue is my favorite theater in NYC. It's a little expensive for a movie, but it's worth every cent.
The film is Keaton at his peak, perhaps film comedy at its peak. Design and execution are audacious and flawless. His technique (as filmaker and as performer) is dazzling, but it's never just for show. Part of what's so extraordinary is how the stunts, jokes, and special effects (the eye-popping montage sequence!) grow organically out of the story. He sets things up so well that stuff you'd never think of (the dress stunt, the motorcycle sequence, the central conceit which Woody Allen lifted for The Purple Rose of Cairo) follows so naturally that it makes complete at the same time it takes one's breath away with its inventiveness. Nothing is forced. Just amazing, and worthy of many, many viewings.

It's a story up at Yahoo. Some Greeks are outraged, outraged! at the implication that Alexander was bi.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Warner cannot come out and say Alexander was gay
...Alexander must come out on his own, when he's ready?

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
So are they denying that Alexander followed that practice just like the rest of the Greeks of his time, or are they in denial so deep that they think Ganymede was a woman?

Yeah right. I thought the early greeks were already out. It's all over the art and everything.

Maybe they just liked to wrestle in a Platonic manner. Naked. With erections.
