favorite scenes: I liked the Business Cards scene.
I liked the Diner scene.
I liked some of the scenes with Eva and Linda in them.
audience reaction: N/A. I was the only one in the auditorium.
recommendation: I actually found it funny, not laugh-out-loud funny. But, funny, nonetheless. Go see this if you're into Comedy movies.
spoiler alert! How could they not have heard the horse walk to the doorway? When he caught her from falling from that height, the force should have hurt his back and torn both of his rotator cuff ligaments. I would not want to swat a fly with my bare hand, especially at the dining table since it would just be gross! Deeds of Trust are simply a matter of public record. They could easily find a copy of the deed at the local county clerk's office. Duh! What those TV news reporters said all amounted to sexual harassment over which they could have been/ should have been easily sued for million$. Ah ... the pregnant woman forgot to remove her panties first. On TV, why was the nudist guy's butt censored but not Ray Liotta's butt? For you horndogs out there who want to see this movie for its nudity, let me give you a quick rundown on what to expect: Male butt, fake penis, fripples, wet see-through male underwear, young female breasts, fripples, pregnant woman's crotch shots; old saggy breasts, pot bellies, stretch marks, "turtle-neck" penis, and another male butt ( in that particular order, I think ). I'm surprised to see that, given the commune's free love lifestyle, there were no horndogs beating a daily/nightly path to Eva's ( Malin Akerman ) doorway!
fyi: One night back when I was a little kid of four or five years of age in Kidapawan, Cotabato, Mindanao, Philippines, a neighborhood friend of mine, Ben-Ben, told me that if I climbed up the Guyabano ( Soursop ) tree beside our house and perched myself on a branch, I would be able to float in the air. I climbed up the tree and stood there as a cool breeze swayed the tree ever so gently. I believed that I could fly. But I held on a branch, just in case. Eventually, though, plain old common sense got the better hold on me and I climbed down that tree.
Someday, I will hunt down that "piece of sh-t" friend and punch him out for almost talking me into killing myself!
Does anybody out there remember a few years back when Placenta was added to some brands of Shampoo? Yuck! What was that all about ...?
word of advice: Nothing in Life is free.
tidbits: At the concessions area, I saw a co-worker of mine. Brian was there to see ACT OF VALOR. I told him that I had just finished blogging about it this morning. And I gave him one of my Cine-Man cards so that he could read what I have to say about it. He said that he will check it out and see whether or not he will agree with what I have to say about the movie. I told him that he will, since I'm dead-on in my review. I will get his feedback on it the next time that I see him at work.
