The Night Kitchen has been challenged several times because the little boy in it is naked and you can see "everything". Since he's a little boy there's not much to see but it doesn't take much to get some people upset.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I will admit that it would seem that for some kids a book encouraging nudity may not be the wisest course of action, since they seemed to be determined nudists already (or at least try to take their clothes off any chance they get), but apart from that...craxy, I says.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
a book encouraging nudity
Not to mention cake for breakfast! Clearly the product of a disturbed and depraved mind.

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

Other pervert. Just because.
What did you think of 3:10 to Yuma, Cor? It had that whole "sacrificing my life for a principle which no one but me cares about" thing that you dig in Wild Bunch, so I thought you might like it. But it's a remake and kind of narratively slack, so maybe not.

I didn't see it yet. I like the original ok, but figured I'd save the remake for DVD. The only movies I've seen in a theater in the last year are No Country For Old Men and There Will Be Blood, which I'm still thinking about so I can post something in the movie thread.

Incidentally, I think In The Night Kitchen is utterly delightful.
