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.

[NAFDA] A thread for the discussion of all original programming on HBO, Showtime, Starz and other premium channels.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
Uh, the connection being that Brad Dourif plays Hazel Motes.

Of course! I love that movie.
I'd never seen it before, but it knocked my socks off.
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
And I ain't got Showtime anymore. Dammit.
WHAT THE FUCK? HICKOCK IS DEAD ALREADY? THAT'S UNPOSSIBLE. HE WAS IN THE CREDITS.
That's history, man.
