I can only wonder what I'll pick next.
I started the day with crappy romcom, so everything else is kinda a pick me up.
'Harm's Way'
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.

Tune in to Mamma Mia! You'll hear the songs in your head for weeks!
Crank 2!
That's the ticket!
I'm eyeing my Christmas gift of The Fall.
Beautiful cinematography and suicidal tendencies!
The Uninvited is just starting on TCM -- the 1940s ghost story, not the new one.

I'm Tivoing it!
Meanwhile, I'm finally watching District 9
Sharlto Copley!
I saw Hitchcock's last two movies today: Frenzy and Family Plot. The former was a solid and tense thriller, but I felt like something was missing, perhaps because it was the sort of movie Hitchcock had made many times before (wrongly accused man has to clear his name), just more lurid and disturbing (the villain is a serial killer/rapist, and there is a rape scene). The latter, though, was great fun and very entertaining. Barbara Harris is a hoot.
What's really fun about Family Plot is that it's filmed almost entirely in San Francisco, but they're pretending it's not.
I noticed that! When the kidnappers were pulling into their house on a hill, it looked so much like San Francisco, but I hadn't heard any references to where the movie was supposed to be taking place.
