I've still never gotten around to watching Last Tango in Paris. Should I maybe take it off the queue?
I thought it was a real bore.
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.

Only if you ever want to enjoy butter ever again. Ever.
Yes on both those counts.
After all the 'it's a masterpiece!' hype, I could not believe how incredibly boring it was. Stultifying doesn't even cover it. And the butter thing would not have been half as scarringly gross if there had been even the slightest chemistry in that relationship.
The entire thing gave me a brain cramp...primarily I think...because I was looking for 'there' that was nowhere.
But you have to take into account the times in which it was made. Back then, there were really only limited, stereotypical uses of butter.
True. So, from this moment forward, I will consider my horizons expanded. Butter knows no bounds.
Still. Hated that movie!
PS: it ruined lavender (the herb) for me too. Yeesh.
Watched The Holiday.
Surprisingly sweet and rather good (and Jude Law is hot, which is weird for me to say except that I saw Alfie, in which he was decidedly not hot) (and Jack Black is surprisingly non-Jack-Blackish for the most part, which is always nice)
I liked it too. Much less "zany" than the trailers.
And Eli Wallach was such a cutie head.

Wasn't he?!
And totally so much less and so much more than the trailers made it out to be, erikaj.

Yes. I could watch this movie repeatedly.
