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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Romeo and Juliet is swashbuckling adolescent derring-do if the leads don't snuff themselves in the end.

What's the rumpus?

You think that I'm some guinea, fresh off the boat, and you can kick me. But I'm too big for that now.

If I'd known we were gonna cast our feelings into words, I'd have memorized the Song of Solomon.

Always Anti-fascist!

I'm stunned I don't know this movie, but I don't.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I'm stunned too: erika, you must rent this movie ASAP.

If you can't trust a fix, what can you trust?

(And yes, rent it, stat, Erika.)

Adding to the chorus of "rent it now, erika" - you will not be sorry. Loads of great dialog performed by a nifty cast.

And, come on, it's crime fiction inspired by Hammett's Red Harvest starring Gabriel Byrne as one of the slipperiest anti-heroes to grace pop culture. I think it's the Coen's finest film. Maybe The Big Lebowski is equal.
