I think you might be crazy. I don't remember that.

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'm not crazy! Although I did suffer a brief moment of panic this morning when I went through the scene selection menu and there was no scene on the plane. Turns out she's only in the extended version. She has two lines but her voice is unmistakeable.

Aha! That explains it.
I saw Rachel Getting Married yesterday. I love me some old-school Jonathan Demme. How cool is it that he got Robyn Hitchcock, Sister Carol and Roger Corman listed in the opening credits?
In honor of Paul Newman, I watched SLAP SHOT last night, which I'd DVRd weeks ago, but hadn't gotten around to watching. I'd forgotten just how raunchy that movie was, language-wise. Hilarious. And Newman was so damn good in the role.
I'll note again that I got to meet the woman who wrote the screenplay for Slap Shot, which was really cool. She based it on her brother's experiences as a minor league hockey player.
Ned was a teammate of the real-life Carlson Brothers in Johnstown, wasn't he?

I don't know if they were teammates but I'm pretty sure they were in the same league and already notorious.
I just watched The Howling. That...was some early-eighties horror, right there. It was all right, but An American Werewolf in London is better.
THE HOWLING is enormous fun if you get all the references going on, and recognize the characer actors in the supporting cast (many of whom turned up in genre movies over the decades). But I think as a straight-up movie experience (both as horror and comedy), AAWWiL is superior.
Of course, seeing Robert Picardo as Eddie in that always freaks me out/ amuses me as I have a hard time not seeing him as the doctor from ST: Voyager.
