Sure, it's still better than The Hunger Games, but only because it didn't cause me physical pain,
Did you ever get around to reviewing this?
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

:x that and Scandal.

Okay, take that shit back. Scandal, which I hadn't realized was by Shonda Rhimes, is like Grey's Anatomy with "lawyers." :x

Do love Guillermo Diaz though.

The Hunger Games?  Like back in April iirc.  I want to edit it together with a look at John Carter prior to the new, almost-certainly-better Catching Fire.

Which means I should probably start my First Great Depression-era utopian sci-fi piece, insofar as it turns out practically none of the period films with similar or allied themes (totalitarianism, technocracy) are available other than Just Imagine, which no one should be surprised is a deeply trifling affair with no serious social, political, or economic content (which doesn't keep Metropolis out, but, you know).

Also hoping to do 12 Years a Slave and possibly The Counselor tomorrow.

Odds are I will get half of one of those things done.

Ide felt gypped by the title, as none of the characters were actually starving.

Found Hercule Poirot's Curtains online. Looking forward to it, though I know who did it.

Also, Jean Renoir's wife was hot.  She's long dead now, of course.

I think the 1920s would have been your era for starlets.

Is this a malnutrition joke? :(

I think I've missed a Languish inside joke.  :unsure:
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

I am often unfairly accused of being pro-anorexia, fining concentration camp inmates attractive, and the like.
