'Make a move and the bunny gets it!'

Genius.

I saw an online article recently that basically dismissed Bruce Dern as Laura's dad who also did some acting himself.  Ptui.  Laura's the daughter of BRUCE FRICKIN' DERN and DIANE GODDAM LADD, and get off my lawn if you don't know that.

Anyhoo.  Silent Running I've been trying to get my fellow Beatles interested in covering someday, with mixed success.     And Family Plot is a curiosity, but mostly a sad one - Hitchcock's last film, and in my opinion he made one film too many.

But no Dern series would be complete without The Cowboys, a movie that I love for many reasons and Dern is only one of them.

I like you, Shifty.  That's why I'm going to kill you last.

I bet you're lying. The best line in Commando is when Cindy tells Sully she's not interested in his chat up attempts and he retorts with 'You fucking whore!'

I like Raw Deal too, Beldar. It's a an 80s action movie, so I have a soft spot for it. Commando is a big bag of awesome cheese, though.

The other week, I mentioned to an actual grown-up colleague that Tony Curtis had died. "Who?" he said, in all obliviosity.

Kids today, we haven't yet reminded them enough that they're born.  Before I get back to that...

Did you assplain to them that the robots are called Huey, Dewey and Louie?

Hence my suggestion for DIFing. Any bunch of idiots can simper over Vertigo or North by Northwest, but it takes a really experienced bunch to do it over Family Plot, or Torn Curtain, or Marnie, or Frenzy.

I do not think I have seen that movie, and now I am sad.

But beer and ice cream will make me happy again.

Oh, how did you get your understandable lack of comprehension officiated?

I've been looking for a bona fide rubber stamp of confusion for nearly as long as I've been typing this sentence.

I've probably only seen it once or twice, and even then not all of it. It would be interesting to give it another try to see if my memory is being unfair.

Oh hell yes. Seeing this on TV as a kid was incredible. I mean, you have the fantasy of seeing yourself as one of the cow boys with Wayne, and then that ending! A true classic.

Fer reals.  That ending is still kinda shocking even today, even more so at the time. 

It's weird that gruesome violence has become an acceptable mainstream movie staple, but moral ambiguity is still a rarity.  Me, I love it.   Which is why The Cowboys and Unforgiven would be my recommended Westerns-for-people-who-don't-like-Westerns double-feature.

Beer and ice cream! Oh, wait, ashamed. Um...beer, ice cream and strippers?

I shall watch it asap.

If you were surprised, like me, the first time you heard a little guy was inside R2D2, wait till you hear what was inside those 3.

Not only have i never seen it, i've never heard of it. Out of my way, i have a movie to watch!

It's worth seeing if only for the "it's a hell of a thing killing a man" scene.
