Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape  

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.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Searching youtube for good examples of dramatic monologues is HARD. Because there's a whole lot of bad ones out there.

Christopher Walken's gold watch speech from PULP FICTION.

Orson Welles's cuckoo clock speech from THE THIRD MAN (though that shades over into a dilogue since Joseph Cotten interjects at a few points).

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Bwah!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Ok - so I had no idea that that wasn't Crispin Glover in Back to the Future 2.

Huh.

And I have no idea who that really is standing with Sir Tony.

Neil Gaiman, who wrote the movie. I got the link from his blog. He's pretty sanguine about the press not having any idea who he is.
