Willow ,'Showtime'
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.
"Are you thinkin' of that reed as a woman's nipple?"
"What are you doing here?"
"Well, the line was so long, I thought you were sellin' drugs."
(Fun trivia learned from the special edition DVD--highly recommended, btw: the boy who tries to get inside the Rabbitt house to audition while Jimmy is taking a bath but refuses to sing in the street is actually the boy who is on the cover of U-2's album "War".)
Oh, and how could I forget?
"What are your influences?"
You mean Gavin from the Virgin Prunes younger brother?
It's actually Guggi's younger brother, Peter Rowan on the cover of Boy and War.
t tonnes of grey matter waster with U2 trivia
That's right! I'd forgotten which Virgin Prunes' brother he was.
Was Guggi also the one that named Bono, Bono? Or was that Gavin?
For those who like this sort of thing, the POTO DVD comes out May 3.
Meaney and Bernard Hill play fiddler brothers
Meep! They could play kazoo-playing brothers, and I'd still go see this.
Also, Natalie (the dark haired Commitmentette - and I think I just broke fingers typing that) was in Hothouse Flowers, which Jimmy is asked for early on, when he's selling tapes. I seem to recall also that Natalie mentions them later in the film, but I can't remember when or why offhand.

I am Anne. Also Spartacus.
