Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape

Closed Film and TV threads

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.

And, wait, one of the Wilson brothers is Nite Owl?

Patrick Wilson is from Angels in America, Little Children and more recently Evening. Excellent Broadway actor who's been nominated for two Tony awards and is beginning to make it big in film. Not related to Luke and Owen.

I think Crudup is a far better choice for Doctor Manhattan than Keanu.

Ooh. That's good then.

I think Crudup is a far better choice for Doctor Manhattan than Keanu.

Well, yeah. But he's not at all what I pictured. Then again, I've really only ever seen him in Big Fish.

Have you seen Almost Famous?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Or Stage Beauty? He is AMAZING in that--plus with the dressed like a girl and kissing boys and whatnot.

I'll admit Crudup's not a physical match in the way, say, Michael Clarke Duncan might be. But I think getting the mood of alienation and weirdness of viewpoint will be more important to that character than physically fitting the role.

Have not gotten around to it. Should I watch the long version or the short version?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

But I think getting the mood of alienation and weirdness of viewpoint

Which Crudup does very well (insert standard yay! for Stage Beauty here).

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Yes I think Crudup is a good choice. IMO he's very good at disappearing into a role.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

HPOotP:

music question: did anyone else think the theme that plays as Harry enters the Ministry (and elsewhere in the movie) was rather similar to that from the Broadway musical of Les Miserable? That circular rushing of the strings.

I kept expecting Jean Valjean to start singing "One day more!"

I definitely had moments of "haven't I heard this before?", but I couldn't say from where.
