i got ddang love this intro text

She was a comely young woman and not without prospects. Therefore it was heartbreaking to her mother that she would enter into marriage with William Munny, a known thief and murderer, a man of notoriously vicious and intemperate disposition.

When she died, it was not at his hands as her mother might have expected, but of smallpox. That was 1878.

I'm ashamed to admit I've never seen Unforgiven. But I vow to change that.

My brother was very upset that John Travolta beat up James Gandolfini in that movie.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Both were quite slow till the end where they both went 'Fuck it!' and just went gonzo nuts

Yeah but the gonzo in The Substance felt calculated as fuck.

Her previous movie did it better i guess.

i enjoyed a complete unknown - immersion into the early 60s counterculture is always fun - but i get the negativity towards it. pretty bland treatment of one of the more interesting and complex people of the 20th century.

Stopped by a Barnes and Noble on the way home to take advantage of the Paramount 50% off sale. They didn't have what I wanted (the Zaz collection and Twin Peaks) but I did pick up Fatal Attraction and Mommie Dearest on Blu Ray.

For a Few Dollars More.

Still the least of the three and flawed in a lot of ways, but the music might be the best. Weird seeing Klaus Kinski in this.

I went to the Barnes and nobles in Flint and they had the Zaz collection, so I'm currently watching Top Secret
