Lamont in Singin in the Rain, where she shows she's a cutthroat businesswoman as well. I love her.

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.

Well, there's Minesweeper: The Movie
Hee, I watched that again the other day. Still love it.
P.S. The Waldo Ultimatum.
I've never seen Murder by Death, but if it's better than Clue, I ought to.

Ann, that's a ferret.
P-C, see it. Yesterday, if possible. Murder by Death is sheer comedy genius.

Murder By Death had some great actors in it. Eileen Brennan (who was in Clue, too!), Peter Falk, Elsa Lancaster, Alec Guinness, Peter Sellers, David Niven, Maggie Smith, Nancy Walker, even Truman Capote.
Oh, and now that I'm looking at the IMDB entry, a young James Cromwell was in it, too!!

Alec Guinness has such fun in that, flipping through character types in seconds.
The ending makes so sense, but who cares?

I am also much with the Lina Lamont love here. You have to see the movie a bunch of times before you can separate out what a genius bit of character acting it really is.

My Alec Guinness love happened somewhere between Murder By Death and Kind Hearts and Coronets.
