I've had Wise Blood tivoed for a couple of weeks, and this inspired me to go ahead & watch it. Pretty good! Much better than the other Huston lit adaptation I watched recently, Under The Volcano.

Uh, the connection being that Brad Dourif plays Hazel Motes.

Huh, I swear I had a post in here, but I must have gotten distracted: Corwood - where did you find WISE BLOOD to Tivo it? I hope if it's being broadcast somewhere again that means it will finally get a DVD release.

I got it off of Showtime Next, from back before The Wire went off the air and we had all the premium channels for the price of one. I hope you're right about an upcoming DVD, but I haven't seen anything. I was thinking about recording it onto a home burnt DVD, but I forgot and deleted it when the movie was over.

Now we ain't got nairn of them premium channels, but we'll probably reorder HBO when Generation Kill comes out.

I was going to get rid of HBO right away but then I got sucked into John Adams.

but after that...it's gone until Generation Kill
