There's a passage I got memorized. Ezekiel 25:17. "The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy My brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay My vengeance upon you."

Little bit confused, is this also in a movie?

We chose tonight to watch it because our son has been using bad language at school (started when we watched The Sopranos when we thought he was sleeping, months ago). All I need is him saying to his teacher is "Say 'what' again, motherf*****!" Or, God forbid, uttering the phrase "dead n***** storage".

“The truth is, you’re the weak, and I am the tyranny of evil men.” “But I’m tryin’ Ringo. I’m tryin’ real hard to be the shepherd.”

Grandma wanted to watch the entire Harry Potter series, so we did. Took us about a month. Just finished it tonight.

Enjoyed it! But the mood of the first was sure different than the last. And the last, after the tragedy and drama and conflict, they were obviously wanting to just hurry up, complete the wrapping up, and put a bow on it.

Saw The Thing at a midnight screening. Packed theater. The place (Coolidge Corner Theater) is running movies as tie-ins to The Hateful Eight as it's one of the only theaters in the Boston area that can run a 70 mm film.

The tie-ins here are Kurt Russell being in both films (obviously), the element of isolation in both films, and that the films shared the same composer (Ennio Morricone). Additionally, unused parts of the score from The Thing were used in The Hateful Eight.

I did too! It really was a thriller. I always wondered if that was really Angie's body or if she had a stand-in
For the close up scenes in the shower it was a double, but it was really her when you first see her in the shower and later when she climbs out of her 'trysts' bed. When she was first offered the part she turned it down because everyone knew her as the sexy, yet sweet 'Police Woman'. The director talked her into it saying she was his only choice and that she would be perfect and that she would get a lot of publicity (she did!). I got all of this from the 'extras' on the dvd.

Kingster, that "sweet" image had to have some tarnish on it at some point. I remember circa 1977-1978 seeing her in a movie with William Shatner and Tom Skerritt, if I remember right, along with actresses who played her nubile and available daughters. "Mama" was in the title. It was Grade C moviemaking, she did some romping, showed a couple of her charms, and may have wished later that the movie would get buried, but film and the Internet are immortal.

The movie was being played in a Marine theater in Okinawa, probably sandwiched between "Guts and Gore" the preceding night and "Amazon Babes Trapped in Barbaria" the next night. You play to the audience. I was interested in watching the movie, believe it or not, because of William Shatner and my liking of "Star Trek" some years earlier. The downside: He wasn't going to get an acting award on this one. The upside: He could be the Canadian ham all he wanted and romp naked with Angie Dickinson. I have to wonder if he even got paid.

Orson Welles and Joan Fontaine in Jane Eyre (1943). Dig the production design, the light and shadow, gothic noir. Young Welles, not obese, heavy gravitas, deep dark voice. Eleven year-old Liz Taylor in the prologue, Jane's doomed Helen. Weird looking, like someone Frankensteined Liz's head on a kid's body. Ooo-eee-Ooo.

I remember that Mama movie- never saw it but knew of it. Yes, after Police Woman left the small screen, I guess Angie had to pay some bills and get what she could.

Shatner should never get any awards for his 'acting'. ;;D

I watched Dressed To Kill by Brian DePalma last night. Hadn't seen it since it hit the theaters years ago. God, what a stylish film! I love the extended camera shots with the camera following the characters around. Angie Dickenson (Police Woman) certainly created a stir when she did this movie- there's nude scenes with her! Michael Caine is understated, as usual, but excellent.
Angie Dickinson's nude scenes in Dressed To Kill were a body double (Penthouse Pet Victoria Lynn Johnson, apparently). Dickinson went full frontal (with William Shatner, who didn't) in Big Bad Mama. Hooray for Google, or else I'd never have known!
