Also, when my friend worked backstage at a celebrity fashion show for Newman's charity, Damon not only had absolutely no temperament, butwhen he heard as he was leaving that they were selling all the clothes worn that day on ebay, asked "would this help?" and peeled off his own cashmere sweater and donated it. He went home in a t-shirt on a crisp November day.

Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
She looked quite different when she was young (and suffered some really egregious hairdos later in life).
Charles Busch commented on the fascinating grotesquery of her later looks. She became sort of a gargoyle Crawford. And she was a gorgeous woman.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I adore Matt Damon. I'd like to see him in an Empire dress.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'd like to see him in an Empire dress.
He doesn't have the breasts for it.

move out and draw fire
I have no opinion on Empire dresses, except that I personally avoid them like the plague.
Not really a movie, but related to Hec's mention of Midnight Movies, the stage production of Rocky Horror is going to be here next month. I really really want to go. [link]
