    • So, I'm watching the 1963 version of the Haunting of Hill House (one of the scariest movies ever made, and the most intelligent ghost story ever written and filmed) and Lois Maxwell shows up. Cool! But in verifying it I realize that the heartthrob Theodora is played by wonderful Shakespearian actress Claire Bloom. So, I go imdb'ing...

      Here's the thing. Claire Bloom is still working. She's in pre-production right now for a version of Sophie's War. 57 years after The Haunting. That's impressive.

      More impressive? When she was in The Haunting she had already been acting in movies, as an adult, for 15 years.

      • I watched Julie and Julia last night, and Amy Adams had me feeling sympathy for Julie Powell. After reading the book, I wanted to punch Julie Powell square in the face.

          Much better movie if it were just the Julia pieces. Could not have cared less about Julie.

          Also Stanley Tucci and Meryl Streep are the best movie combo.

          • I thought I posted this a few days ago, but apparently not?

            Trailer dropped a couple weeks ago for the Murder on the Orient Express sequel Death on the Nile.

            • Gf and I watched Enola Holmes on Netflix last night. It was alright, other than Helena Bonham Carter being her usual annoying self.

                Meh. When she's good she's good:

                Fight Club
                Sweeney Todd
                The Crown

                and when she's bad she's horrible:

                Hamlet
                Frankenstein
                Twelfth Night
                Les Mis

                She's better the more intimate her roles are. As she becomes bigger she is exposed as obviously incapable.

                This is pretty much true of every actress born after 1950, and it's because those actresses are now chosen for either boobs on a stick or quirky/snarky, both of which are very narrow effective niches.


                Exceptions: Kate Blanchett and... I can't think of anybody else. Helen Mirren was born in 1945.

                      Ron Howard is making it yes.

                              • Stupid question regarding the stuff that has come to light regarding the BORAT sequel:

                                How the hell is it legal for Sasha Baron Cohen to pull the pranks he did and then be able to use the footage from those pranks? Especially what happened with Pence at CPAC.

                                Is it basically a "one party consent" deal with the filming of the situations?

                                I find it hilarious and will absolutely be watching the movie because it sounds like a hilarious bit of satire just like the original. I'm just curious as to how they were actually able to pull this off...
