AND decided to add romance to his movies, which spoiled the fun.
Wait. That animal crackers scene in Armageddon was supposed to be ROMANTIC?!?
I hate to break it to you, oh impotent one, but you're not the big bad anymore, you're not even the kind of naughty.

Well, that or an attempt to turn the entire audience into The Who's Tommy.

I saw "Dot the i" tonight, with Gael Garcia Bernal, in his first English-speaking role. Very good. I liked it a lot. Though my friend who was with me didn't like it too much, and was irritated with it, until the ending, which she enjoyed. It was a nice blend of genres in my opinion, and was interesting, and different.

There's a fun interview with Colm Meaney here. He's promoting his new movie:
Ireland's latest offering, "The Boys & Girl From County Clare," opens today... Meaney and Bernard Hill play fiddler brothers who haven't spoken in 20 years. They bring their ceili bands to a music contest in a small Irish town in the early '70s to settle a grudge match.
Hill's top fiddler (Andrea Corr) falls for one of Meaney's musicians. The love story unfolds amid Irish music, dancing, drinking and one-liners.
Sounds like a definite movie to see for St. Patrick's Day! BTW, Andrea Corr played the oldest daughter in The Commitments.

That's incredibly sad, and scary, Connie.
Particularly since she actively tried to do something about it. Damn.

Exactly, Laura.
Is Andrea Corr one of the violin-playing members of The Corrs? Or no? Just similar names?
