Or Stage Beauty? He is AMAZING in that--plus with the dressed like a girl and kissing boys and whatnot.
Jinx? If you and Dreg have been using my moisturizer again I'm going to have to rip off your scaly- hey, what's the deal with your face?

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.

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 you seen Almost Famous?
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.

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

I think it was reminding me of Star Wars, but that may just be the general John Williamsness shining through.

There's an old lady watching The Lives of Others but we didn't sell any tickets for this last show. I'm afraid of startling her if I walk up in the dark and ask to see her ticket, plus she looks kinda scary in a stern headmistress sort of way. Plus there's less than half an hour left of the show. I would have died if I had to leave without watching the ending. I am letting her get away with it. Go sneaky old lady!
