Buffy ,'Lessons'
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.
So this probably won't be playing anywhere most of you can see it, but there is a Paul Gross movie coming out this Friday in Canada, called Gunless.
It's a comedy western, with Paul Gross as an American outlaw ending up in a small Canadian town, and being confounded by politeness when trying to get into a gun fight. I also spotted CKR in the trailer.
I thought it worth mentioning here because, Paul Gross arms! Which, according to one scene in the trailer, look very fine indeed.
I have a friend who got to go to the premiere of that last night!
Fun! When I first saw the posters, I didn't even recognize Paul Gross, but the trailers look amusing anyway.

Huh. It never even occurred to me that it might be a pen name. I know so many people whose actual names are so much less plausible. I mean, now that I think of it, sure, what parent would name their infant girl Diablo? And yet, I grew up with people sincerely and unironically named Aragorn and Arwen and Fritha Nicoletta.
It's not her real name?
I am in no place to judge.
Okay, sometimes I judge. That time never occurred to me.
I think her name is Brooke Burns or something.

A couple I know named their twins Luke and Leia. It's kind of fun to play "spot the cultural zeitgeist at your birth" with names.

I presume they've been raised since birth to know they're related, so they're safe.
DANGER WILL ROBINSON DANGER.
Tempting fate. IJS.
I wouldn't name my kid Oedipus even if I intended to raise him with me and his dad. It's a thing.
