2003-08-20 - 12:40 p.m. Erik�s parental units have departed. I ate half a blueberry pie for dinner last night. I saw Dirty, Pretty Things and loved it. I also saw a certain Merchant Ivory fiasco. I have to agree with the critics: "A pseudo-sophisticated sexual roundelay full of trivial characters so selfish it's a chore to spend two hours with them." �Rob Blackwelder, SPLICEDWIRE "Imagine a Henry James novel with every shred of character development and intelligence removed." �Liz Braun, JAM! MOVIES "Both American AND French cultures get shortsighted; religious and political moir�s into fidelity are brushed away; and the film shifts from melodrama to farce to tragedy and back to comedy (using that term lightly) at the drop of a razor." �Erik Childress, EFILMCRITIC.COM "True, we will always have Paris. But preferably not this way." �David Elliott, SAN DIEGO UNION-TRIBUNE Snarkity snark snark. Dearedwin and I are being forced to reenact our hit presentation for the entire art department this afternoon. I�m not in the mood to perform, and I heard a rumor that the show will be following up with a forced brainstorm. Grrrr� � � |
