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"

Now, I'm awake watching a film with a very young Jude Law & Sadie Frost as nihilistic thieves who smash cars into shopping malls to steal stuff.

SHOPPING! I haven't seen that one in years. Jonathan Pryce is in it too, I think.

It's got Jason Isaacs, Sean Bean and Sean Pertwee.

Wouldn't have recognized any of them except Bean, and I can't remember him in it.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Yup. He plays a cop.

Wouldn't have recognized any of them except Bean, and I can't remember him in it.

Jason Isaacs plays a small part as a fence, Sean Bean (in a a mullety hair cut) plays a bigger criminal and Sean Pertwee is Jude Law's antagonist, Tommy. He had much more chemistry with Sadie Frost when he was cutting her t-shirt with a straight razor.

I'm a huge Pertwee fan, though.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Isn't he Jon Pertwee (Doctor #3)'s son?

I just got caught up here, but another possible monologue suggestion is Quint's Indianapolis speech in Jaws.

Yup, that's him.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

school-appropriate amazing movie monologues

Not from a movie, but how about Simon's speech about River in the second part of the Firefly pilot?

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Natalie Portman's naked tush is more more curvy (in a good way) than I would have expected.

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

Natalie Portman's naked tush is more more curvy (in a good way) than I would have expected.

Maybe it was a stunt booty.
