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.

My guess is a legend-wait for it,ary tax bill. Because he's got a TV show in syndication and a resurgent career and the IRS can make rational people do crazy shit.

That's kinda brilliant. Also? Disturbing.

My sister has become obsessive about seeing Oscar films and sending me mini-reviews. For some reason, The White Ribbon got a haiku. It was such an unknowingly Buffista moment, I had to share. Here's her message:

Look alike kinder
haunt creepy pre war village.
Who's really guilty?

Had tremendous fun at the Paramount in Oakland last night (a huge, beautiful art deco movie palace that shows classics and cult movies on Fridays). Javachik and I saw Wait Until Dark with Audrey Hepburn and Alan Arkin. So much fun. There was the Wurlitzer organ beforehand (last night they played Oscar-winning songs from the 1930s to the 70s) and a raffle with a Dec-o-win wheel. Also, old newsreels and cartoons before the show. I'm sorry it took me so long to get out there and see something, even though it's right at the BART station and super convenient.

Aww, a bunch of us went there with Hec & JZ the night before (?) their wedding. Such a fun time, and I can't even remember what the movie was.
