Point 42 definitely deserves a more in-depth investigation.

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.

Saw Shame last night. It's, geez, what do I say? It's a very good film within the narrow limits it sets for itself. The acting is fearless and real, although I did NOT need to see Michael Fassbender peeing, even if it was from the back. The script is really assured--lots of silence and what dialogue there is feels true.
Still, the story is so circumscribed and so very bleak that it's a hard film to watch.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I've seen clips from the movie, and I'm very comfortable with not attaching context to them, since without it, they're incendiary hot, and I know the psychology of the movie will just bring me down, even though it looked like softcore porn.

I'm thinking of making this week a Fassbender Fest, as one of the Memphis artsy theaters is playing both Shame and A Dangerous Method over the weekend and I was already planning to go see Haywire tonight.

Not only is he a good actor, the man looks damn good naked, I'll say that for him.

Because books.
I honestly don't know much about him (aside from that he, like every male actor of a certain age, was in Band of Brothers), but now I have fifty solid reasons to learn much, much more.
