'Out Of Gas'


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.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

She's amazing in Wonderland (The British version).

Me, too. My fave performance of hers is in High Art.

I haven't seen High Art -- was that the one Ally Sheedy was in?

I love PC in everything. I think the first time I really noticed her was in The Untouchables, and then later as Teddy's wife in Murder One.

Yes. She's (Sheedy) even good in it. Watch it when you're itching for a moody, atmospheric, depressing piece. PC is fabulous as an aging German junkie actress, Greta.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Love Patricia Clarkson in Station Agent, Pieces of April and Far From Heaven.

Straitharn's been good in so much stuff - particularly his work with Sayles which goes all the way back to Return of the Secaucus Seven. But as Ple well knows, it is his work on The Days and Nights of Molly Dodd where he achieved absolute perfection. Ahhh, I could recreate that Ingrid Bergman speech almost verbatim from memory and I haven't seen it in 20 years.
