And if you like the silents -- TCM is showing a Rudolph Valentino festival starting at 8 (ET) tonight.
Ooooooh.
Hmm. Must figure out what to Tivo.

Buffista Movies 5: Development Hell
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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Seconding the ooooh. I definitely need to see Horsemen after reading about the tango scene.
And hey, tomorrow Penn & Teller host F for Fake and Freaks. And other movies not starting with "F."

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Deep Blue Sea is on TBS! I love this movie. But they seem to be cutting graphic shark violence.

Frank, I think at least one factor is that O'Neal isn't the most expressive actor.
Heh, well, I think I dislike the idea (and some seriously unpleasant details about his personal life) of Ryan O'Neal more than I actually dislike him, because he's been in several movies I really, really like even though when I think "Ryan O'Neal" the response is "Ugh": Barry Lyndon, The Driver, Zero Effect, and of course What's Up Doc just off the top of my head.
Wheras I kinda like the idea of Babs, but usually actually experiencing her makes me want to scream like the kids in SOUTH PARK when she showed up there.

Where? Wow! Where?
Oops, sorry -- on TCM, starting at 8 EST. I saw it listed when looking up the Valentino stuff.

Love "What's Up, Doc?" Only know "Ride The High Country" through Derek Strange, as I've not seen it. Strange loves it, though.

Even though this refers to TV movies, I'll put it here since a lot of us movie watchers have a thing for Sean Bean--BBC America is going to be showing the entire run of Sharpe films this summer, starting with Sharpe's Rifles on Saturday! The very first thing I saw him in back in the mid-1990s on Masterpiece Theatre, and he was so very yummy in that uniform with all the buttons (and very slim-hipped trousers, of course!). It's also fun to see Brian Cox as Major Hogan in the first few movies before he's replaced by another great character actor whose name I can't remember right now, but he played the Russian head spy in A Sum of All Fears.
I'm going to buy some blank videotapes for taping.
