I'm watching the trailer for Slow Burn, and all I can think is Jolene Blalock? Black? Did they run out of Negresses in Hollywood? Then, at some point in the trailer it seems her blackness may be under question, but still...

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

They had a picture of him dancing in full Mrs. Turnblatt regalia in Entertianment Weekly a few months ago--completely unrecognizable!

That Wicker Man highlight reel was great and all, but sometimes don't you just want to see more of the NOT THE BEES part? Sure you do.

I think Freddy Quimby should walk out of here a free hotel
Of Spaced, Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz, Hot Fuzz is my least favourite. I mean, I liked it a lot but I liked it as a buddy cop movie; as a comedy, I though it was a little flabby and overcooked. Though the Romeo and Juliet production may have overstimulated and broke my brain's laughing centre.

Ann, that's a ferret.
RIP Betty Hutton.
Must check for Miracle of Morgan's Creek in the near future.

I really liked The Miracle of Morgan's Creek, with its tee-hee subtle Hayes Code-bashing, escalating high-jinks, and clever wordplay. It's not top-notch Preston Sturges, but it's a far cry from a stinker.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Since were were talking about Sunshine a few days ago: A nice Q&A with Cillian Murphy from Premiere Magazine: [link]
He seems like a smart and level-headed kind of a fellow. He certains knows to pick interesting roles. I like his face, too -- he can look unearthly beautiful from one angle, and reeeeally creepy from another.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Hutton had to be the most entertaining actress of the '40s. But then, I didn't even think The Greatest Show on Earth was a bomb.
Didn't deserve Best Picture Oscar, true. But not the worst winner, either. (I'd give that dubious honor to Cimarron.)
