I've never seen any of Anne Hathaway's movies, so I know her mostly from movie trailers and an SNL appearance, but let me say this: her face really disturbs me. It's like somebody worked on it in post-production to achieve a cheesy, juvenile horror movie skull-like special effect on it. The black, way-too-large eyes, the too-large mouth smiling as if it was painted on stereotypical pirate ship flag - it's all too much. I don't know if this is the result of bad plastic surgery or of a weird genetic defect. All I know is that I don't want to look at it.

A truly weird review, Steve, a melange of astute observations, questionable speculation, gossip and hobby horse riding. I agree with your view of Demme's career, which turned sadly downward when he won mainstream accolades and box office success.

How the hell does this blog qualify as part of modern hard right American politics?

Where are the Bob Dylan references? Where is the love affair with Israel?

I thought for sure that the great Taki was forced to end reader comments on his blog because of the heat he took on that 'six rabbis went to Murdoch to ask him to fire O'Reilly' article.

But instead it looks like he ended comments in preparation for some truthtelling on Israel. Lo and behold he has righteously bashed the dirtbags Frum and Kristol with his latest article. He has properly called them out as foreign agents.

Frum and Kristol are two of the guys behind your own career marginalization Steve. Yet you provide no link to Taki's blog entry or mention of it though it's been up for three days.

Where's the love Steve? Did Taki go too far for your delicate sensibilities? Or - in the Rovian style - is everybody who is positioned an inch to the right of you a radical?

please look on google images for Anne hathaway

she is incredibly attractive. I have no idea what the posters above are thinking -- after all, the whole point of leftism is to turn our most beautiful against us.

Trivial side note: There is one director's cut that's actually shorter than the original theatrical release. It's the Coen Brothers' first film, Blood Simple, and it's shorter by a whopping two minutes. Bless their little pixilated hearts.

After we saw Peter Jackson's hopelessly self-indulgent "King Kong," my teenaged daughter expressed the hope that the Deluxe Edition DVD would be 40 minutes shorter.

Dan, three steps to creating a great blog:

1. ??????
2. Dennis Dale posts in comment section.
3. Profit?

I'm still trying to figure out that first step.

This is off topic but I just read this and wanted to share it: http://www.csmonitor.com/2009/0109/p25s30-usju.html

It stems from a 2004 lawsuit filed by white firefighters in New Haven, Conn., who say they passed an exam for a job promotion only to have the test results thrown out because no African-American candidate received a high enough score to also be considered for promotion.

But when no blacks and only two Hispanic applicants qualified for consideration for the management jobs, the city decided to scrap the entire test.

Seventeen white firefighters and one Hispanic firefighter who passed the test sued, claiming the city violated their constitutional right to equal treatment. They also charged that the city violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act by discriminating against them solely because they weren't black.


It's so absurd I can hardly believe it's real.

{...} "Philadelphia," in which Tom Hanks proves that homophobia caused the AIDS epidemic (rather than, say, industrial-scale gay promiscuity) {...}

I haven't watched the entire film but I do remember that it's explicitly stated that Hanks's character got AIDS from having casual sex in a movie theatre.

Is there real evidence for this?

Anne Hathaway has a ... rather messy personal life. Probably has always been standard in Hollywood but now is all over the place. "Too much information" regarding her own personal preferences ...

As for Israel, lots of conservatives love Israel and support it -- Sarah Palin being the best known and myself the most obscure.

At the heart of the 21st Century is the conflict between militant Islam, driven by polygamist created instability, and the West. Including Israel but also India, China, Russia, and many other places. I'll note no one gave a damn when Russia flattened Chechnya and leveled Grozny, or China sent lots of Uighurs and Hui to prisons or firing squads, or Hindu mobs set aflame hundreds of Muslims.

No it's only Israel. Steyn called it, the hate that never dies and always adapts. It's that Israel and Jews EXIST that enrages the Paleo-tards like Buchanon and the like. Along with the Hard Left like Ayers, Dohrn, Michael Moore, Sean Penn, and Barack Hussein Obama. [He's now set to recognize and negotiate with Hamas according to the Guardian.]

Deeply assimilated Jews like Warner, Goldwyn, Mayer, etc. gave us great movies like Casablanca or the Maltese Falcon or Mr. Smith Goes to Washington. Exciting films people actually enjoyed. Not like Rachel Getting Married -- of interest only to the terminally hip and evidence of Hollywood's passing from assimilated, pro-American Jews who created Hollywood to WASPY Harvard elites.

Lawrence Auster is a good and decent man to whom conservatives owe a huge debt. He has a better grasp on liberalism and Islam than anyone alive.

Your problem should be with liberalism, not Jews.

Testing is exactly right. Who here is *not* on Russia's side against Chechnya?

I am on Chechnya's side in their struggle against Russian imperialism. As for Hindus vs Muslims and Chinese vs Uighurs, things are less clear-cut. Neither side is Western, so it is difficult to tell who to root for. I'm hoping to find out if either side is being secretly helped by the U.S., and then I'll root for the other side.

Do even movie review threads have to become shouting matches about Jews? Can we stick to the topic of Steve's post at least a little bit? Jeez.

Ah yes, those blasted WASPy Harvard elites, forever racing about in their Stutz Bearcats, sipping bathtub gin from their hip-flasks during those debauched Harvard-Yale games, and plotting to keep poor little Hyman Goldberg from realizing his dream of becoming a stockbroker at one of those stuffy old Wall Street firms. Does their villainy know no limits? When will their stranglehold on the reins of power be broken?

I agree. Auster is a good man, if a bit prickly, and the attacks on him are not only off-topic, but off the mark.

As to which side of Russia/Chechnya I fall down on - the answer is: neither. I don't care whether Chechnya is independent or not. Sure, the Russians are bastards. So are the Chechnyans. And Steve's point about Israel is not that they don't deserve to exists, but just that their problems are their problems, not ours.

And just so this post doesn't go completely off topic, I'll leave off with this:

Anne Hathaway: Hot.

Peter Jackson: undisciplined, talentless hack.

Uh, the Jews ARE the Harvard elite.
What century are you living in?

I wonder if testing99 realizes how ironic it is that he's obsessively bashing "WASPY Harvard elites". That's exactly what all the contemporary Jewish, Italian, and Irish directors in Hollywood do: continue to flog the moldering corpse of the long-defunct WASP elite.

A perfect example of this is Robert De Niro's "The Good Shepherd" (written by Eric Roth, produced by F. F. Coppola), a non-stop fiesta of WASP flogging, featuring the same stale old stereotypes of the snooty, emotionally repressed Connecticut blue-bloods versus the "vibrant" life-loving immigrant types. There's even a speech to that effect clumsily inserted into the film and delivered by none other than Joe Pesci: "We Italians have family, Jews have their traditions, Black have their music, what do you [i.e., Ivy-league WASPs] have?"

I guess it's good exercise, though, thrashing that dead horse. And, who knows, maybe a lot of people will still buy it. But not on this website, I bet.

Yeah, The Good Shepherd. HA! What a tedious Hollywood exercise in Wasp-bashing that POS was.

The really funny thing is that its constipated blue-eyed Connecticut Wasp protagonist was actually based on James Jesus Angleton, a dark Mexican-Italian Catholic originally from Idaho.

Oh, the unintended irony! LMAO at dumb Hollywood moviemakers.
