Nope. Nothing remotely sexy anywhere in the film with any character.
Note to self: religion freaky.

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.

As much as I like the idea of Fincher doing a movie about the Zodiac, I've been a little leery of the film just because I know the details pretty well (having read Graysmith's book, among others) and the story of the Zodiac does not seem to lend itself well to a coherent narrative, since we ultimately don't know who it was or why he did it.
It also seems to not lend itself well to a moody pseudo-horror piece, which this film seems to be advertized as, since the Zodiac actually wasn't all that prolific a killer.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
Playing a chained-up, half-naked nymphomaniac in her new movie Black Snake Moan helped Christina Ricci overcome her prudish nature, because now she parades around in her underwear all the time. The former child star had to face her fears of baring almost all for the film and decided the best way to get comfortable with revealing scenes was to wear nothing but lingerie at all times - even after cameras stopped rolling.
See, I read that on ImDb and am still trying to figure out what she means by it. Has Ricci really forgotten she appeared stark fucking naked in that "Prozac" movie, or is she simply trying to pretend it never happened and she never appeared stark fucking naked in anything?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I didn't see the Prozac movie, so I don't know how long she was naked in this--one day on set, or what. She was scanty for a very long time in Black Snake Moan.

Hey. New board.
I am glad. I'm not sure what I would do if the last two movies had a new Harry. Possibly go crazy.

We rented Idiocracy the other night. Would have made an excellent short but as a full-length movie it was just too dumb. The first 30 minutes or so were funny as hell because it's true!

Last night we watched The Miracle of Morgan's Creek and The Quiet Man.
I think the passage of time has made Morgan's Creek less laugh-out-loud funny and more really-damn-weird. Not that it wasn't amusing, but we spent a lot of time saying, "Wow, they're still piling on more complications? Where is this going?" Plus, a lot of the comedy is based to some degree on shock value, and since much of it isn't shocking now, that hurts it a bit. (The premise is that a girl gets drunk, may or may not get married to a soldier whose name she can't remember, and then finds out she's pregnant. Mayhem ensues.)
The Quiet Man was also somewhat weird, not to mention kinky. But also quite charming and gorgeous. Bonus points for the IRA joke, too. I love movies where half the supporting characters have their own subplots.
