Willow ,'Storyteller'
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.
she really liked Pulp Fiction, for example, and likes new stuff and stylistically interesting work.
I haven't seen Sin City yet, so maybe I shouldn't weigh in, but from what I've read here, and what you say about her, I can't imagine there would be a problem.
I don't know Robin. It's way more violent and gory than Pulp Fiction, the violence is all just cartoonised so that the impact is somewhat less visceral. And there is little humor to break up the violence. Also, the portrayal of women is pretty abysmal. They're all victims, whores or objects.

Not to mention that most of them are killers, just like most (all?) of the men.
After reading the above whitefont, I think I'll stick with Dick Powell movies.

Oh great, so all the women are lushes instead. :)
Frank, that's William Powell. Dick Powell was the young male singer in a ton of '30s musicals. "We're in the Money" and "Lullaby of Broadway" were from movies he starred in.
OMG, I just realized. He was the '30s version of Josh Harnett -- but sang!
Oh the pretty:
Oscar winner Denzel Washington is set star in the upcoming hostage drama "Inside Man," which Spike Lee is directing for Universal Pictures and Imagine Entertainment.
Clive Owen is in negotiations to join the movie, which Imagine's Brian Grazer is producing.
Another Bond rumor. [link]

Wow, I was 0 for everything on the trivia yesterday. Damn.
Sue -- very interesting. He'd be a complete unknown to us over here.
Well, to me at least.
