I happen to be very biteable, pal. I'm moist and delicious.

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.

I'd forgotten that Danny Boyle directed Life Less Ordinary.

That's OK, he probably wants to as well.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Such as: the closing credits.

Its got Holly Hunter and Ewan McGregor in it. They should be lovers in a movie sometime. I know she's older than him, but she's still very sexy and I think he'd find her energy provocative.

I was reading a book on David Cronenbourg and when asked how hard it was to recruit the cast for Crash he said people really underestimated how radical, and out-there Holly and James Spader were.

Hey now! A Life Less Ordinary has a ROCKIN' few scenes.

Pretty much every minute of Holly Hunter's screen time, especially when she was climbing up from the grill of that moving vehicle after being run over.

And pretty much all of Tony Shalhoub's screen time, too. He freaking rocked.

There are so many instances of Tony Shaloub's utter rockingness. Personally I love him best in Barton Fink.

It's just perfect.

Tony Shalhoub is David Strathairn-level awesome, it is true.

Good comparison! I am also a rapt fan of Mr. Straithairn. Of course, you and I, as longstanding Molly Dodd fans, were aware of his particular genius way back when.
