Very nice Vanvutu. Here's another song I can't resist trying to get in, although not in the same spirit I'm afraid. For a sobering start to this new year and a...
Angela, Adrian, all, Went to see "The Queen" yesterday afternoon. Imagine my delight when, early on, Helen Mirren told her husband that she didn't want to come...
Hi: I don't know about everyone else, but I'm off to record my impressions about all the love I've felt at this board in my man pages. (Sounds so much more...
Oscar: I imagine one of the stag metaphors was Diana being hunted by the press? And I imagine this film comes down a little more firmly on the side that the...
Angela, Yep, the stag could definitely represent Diana, her sort of wild innocence being hounded to death. And in the scene where the queen is "visited" by the...
Angela, Those are mountain cedar that plague us in the Hill Country and south-central Texas. Ironic name for them in that we don't have mountains around here,...
Oscar: We got about 5 or 6 inches of nice wet snow...hope we get a lot more this winter. About the only good thing about cedars (junipers) is that gin is made...
I also loved The Queen, and if Helen Mirren doesn't get tons of nominations this year there is absolutely no justice in this world. Michael Sheen is so...
Agape and Oscar: Right-o...based on your recommendations, I am excited to see this one. Maybe won't get to see it in the theatre, but hopefully it will read...
I gave up trying to order it, maybe we can be hopeful that it will someday see US release . . . ... I ordered it last week, actually. Was shocked at how...
I contacted the DVDland.it people and they said they had dispatched mine on 20 December, but it hasn't arrived yet..... Agape ... someday see US release . . . ...
... Mine has finally arrived too! I think the holiday season got in the way. The Italians (ever so stylish and beauty-conscious) have made a gorgeous box set...
... [letter snipped] In truth, the letter sent to Carney was a pretty silly one. But let's not also forget that Ray Carney is famously insane. -Bilge...
Bilge, Did not know that the accepted notion about Carney is that he's nuts. I did think that his reply was way, way over the top, silly. I've read his book on...
... That's the understatement of the year. Ray Carney has turned John Cassavetes scholarship into a virtual cottage industry. Problem is, he gets his panties...
'Children of Men' too much for Cuarón to handle alone By MICHAEL PHILLIPS Chicago Tribune CHICAGO — Director Alfonso Cuarón's startling thriller Children...
If someone ever orders an extra copy, I will gladly buy it from you. Thanks, paul ... Mine has finally arrived too! I think the holiday season got in the way....
... Cassavetes scholarship into a virtual cottage industry. Problem is, he gets his panties in a snit anytime anyone else *dares* to write about Cassavetes....
Thanks so much for posting this! I guess I better start saving up for even more expenditures on even longer versions of TNW :-). I'm still in doubt as to...
... I'm not planning on ordering any extra copies (not even by mistake, which almost happened!) but if you want a copy you can contact me off list. Agape...
That Wikipedia page says that Rowlands had him fired from the Criterion Collection's Cassavetes' boxset...but I own it and he's in the documentary. His voice...
Do you have to speak Italian to enjoy this film or is it subtitled by chance? How much does it cost? Jason [Non-text portions of this message have been...
No. Audio tracks are in both Italian and English (5.1 Dolby) and subtitles are in Italian, English (so non-British viewers can follow Colin Farrell, he-he),...
... It was not cheap. I don't have the receipt in front of me, but it was something like 22 Euros for the discs and 11 Euros or so for the shipping. Which...
... The firing occured over commentaries on the discs. Carney had provided lots of commentaries and also some other material for the boxed set, but thanks to...
Hi all: Don't mean to be a Carney-style douche bag myself, but it's interesting how the acerbic gets attention: the infamous Sunflower production letter from...
Hi: In one of my recent Internet click-fests (one link leading to another, repeat ad nauseum) I found some rather fascinating info, especially for *Days of...
