Robert Carlyle! Johnny Lee Miller! Liv Tyler! Great music! Costumes!
Alan Cumming! Never forgetting Alan Cumming.
Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
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.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

The music that launched a hundred trailers with Hanging and Escape. Maybe I'll buy it as my Santa Swap gift and smuggle it back to myself, or borrow it from whomever wins it, or watch it before the swap. Actually, that's usually how my DVD purchases for my little brother go: watched beforehand or borrowed soon after gifting.

these are not the droids you are looking for.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
In the book there's no question that Crawford is a sleazy creep who can't be trusted. I'm not a fan of Edmund either, for that matter.

I saw Dear White People last weekend. It was entertaining and creative, although as I am not a person of color I have no idea how accurately it represents the Ivy League experience for such students.

Not sure where to post a short indy web film about Harry Potter fans playing wizard rock. I'll try here: [link]
It's adorable, 20 minutes long, and stars the girl who played Lydia in the Lizzie Bennett Diaries.

So, I have been craving Plunkett and McLeane for years now.
It used to turn up on IFC or Sundance (can't remember which but I think it was IFC). Of course, fucking IFC now has commercials.
Signed, still remembers when Bravo was a no-commercials, arts and really, really interesting unedited movies channel. No, not still bitter about that, no sir (liar).

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
I believe that if the leap of faith had been given, he would have been true. Like, I totally would have been happy if Fanny had married him.
Haven't read the book, so I can't speak to Burrell's point. But as played by Nivola, I felt like he sincerely thought that he WANTED to be a better man, but I was unconvinced that he would last. I felt like if they married they would have had at best a couple/few months of happiness before he broke her heart in some way. (As best I recall, haven't seen it for a few years. Gotta go back to Amazon and pull the trigger on my cart since the DVD's on sale - or was a few days ago).

Holy crap, so Amazon has Plunkett & MacLeane new for $55! And the used? $30. I don't know if this itch is that essential to scratch at that price. Why no rentals?!?
