Woo! Helen Mirren (so young!) and Diana Rigg from 1968 production of Midsummer Night's Dream.
Slashy slashy eye contact!
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.

Maybe he just doesn't have a good enough grasp on who exactly RDJr. is, or something
Well, he's a dude playing a dude playing a dude disguised as another dude.

I remember that production! they showed it on PBS when I was a tween. Also, note the very young David Warner.
Beau and I just watched The Fall and I have to say that I enjoyed it more than Pan's Labyrinth. I think I just typed heresy, but I'm putting it out there. Tarsem isn't exactly my favorite director, I found The Cell to be beautiful, but a broken movie. I liked The Fall a lot better. It isn't wonderful, but I found it enjoyable - and needing maybe an additional scene or 2. Lee Pace was excellent.
For a movie about twelve dudes stuck in a room yelling at each other, 12 Angry Men sure is good.
Now I'm sad you saw Veronica Mars first. The episode where she has jury duty is a total tribute.
As is the Cupid episode "Hung Jury."
I [Rob Thomas] remained convinced that I could handle a 12 Angry Men-style bottle episode, but I ultimately proved myself wrong by attempting it on Veronica Mars and failing once again. I am unilaterally banning myself from any more attempts at a bottle episode in a jury room.
The "Charmed" version of 12 Angry Men is hilarious also.
