The Thing Called Love
River Phoenix, Trisha Yearwood and Jimmie Dale Gilmore? How did I miss that one?
Maybe I ddin't...can't recall. Was it good?
Tell me more good stuff about me.

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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

It was pretty good. Not great by any means. Dylan McDermott too, playing the other guy, as he did so often.
eta: Oh shit, or was it Dermot Mulroney...

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Just like in Mists of Avalon. Hated her in that. Whiny and cross. But pretty. Ugh.
But she was playing Guinevere, right? Guineveres are always simpering cows in movie versions. Well, I haven't seen the latest one with Keira Knightley. Hmm, and I kind of liked Cheri Lungi in Excalibur. OK, I take back what I said about Guineveres. Maybe it *is* Samantha Mathis after all.
I think her star (such as it was) fell when River Phoenix OD'd. Wasn't she with him the night he died?
I see what a terrific actor Joachim Phoenix grew into in the last decade, and I can't help wondering what his brother would have been like had he lived.

I'll bet agents cast for that specific role all the time...the other guy.
Also watched Sliding Doors tonight. I was in a romantic mood. And John Hannah can be my other guy any ol' time.
Chronicles of Riddick last night. PEE-yew-pee!

Vanessa Redgrave? Helen Mirren?

Yeah, I really think it is the Mathis, not the Gwynnies.
I think I remember something about her and River. And yeah, you gotta wonder where he'd be right now. Natalie Merchant's song about him just. kills. me.

Vanessa Redgrave?
Eeek. I loathe Camelot. Especially that "If I Ever Leave You" song. God, gag me with a spoon.
Helen Mirren?
Played Morgan Le Fey (and rocked like a a great big rocking thing), not Guinevere.

That figures. I mean, that's who I'd cast as Morgan Le Fey. It's been a long time since I've seen it. Mostly I remember they scooped up pretty much all the leads from the RSC for it. It's practically a year-book snapshot.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I loathe Camelot.
Oh Vonnie. And I thought we shared a brain.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I loathe Camelot.
It's only a model!
