Drumline

If you can't tell, most of this weekend was spent watching movies. To finish it off I caught Drumline. I have just one question, do they actually have drum offs?

Oh yeah, the 7-up guy is in it.

Hurlyburly

I love when Artie in Hurlyburly gives the girl to Eddie and Mickey. There is something about Garry Shandling being a dirty bastard that makes me laugh.

Erik's QotD: Virginity

Do you wish you'd waited longer to lose your virginity?

Ahh, no. I was 16 but I very much wanted to lose it when I was younger. I always thought that 14 would have been a good age.

Secretary & Swimfan

After last night we needed a relaxing break, so we made it a movie night. One of the choices was Secretary with James Spader and Maggie Gyllenhaal. It is definitely worth checking out if you have the time. Incredibly funny and sexy with a really interesting story. Spader was great as always and Gyllenhaal did a great job of pulling off her character. If someone told me the plot line before I saw it, I don't think I would have expected such a good film.

The other choice was SwimFan. You know this film is going to suck, but no matter how much you prepare, it takes you by surprise. I hate Erica Christensen and Jesse Bradford. I don't know why we always watch such horrible movies. Someone needs to stop us.

Caligola

A few months ago a brief friend gave my Caligola for no apparent reason. I have never seen it and had no idea what it was like. The opening scene gave me a big hint. If that didn't tell me, when Bob Guccione's name showed up on the credits I knew for sure. For the uninitiated Bob Guccione is the founder of Penthouse.

Anyway, Caligola is just porn, porn with Peter O'Toole and Malcolm McDowell. I expected it to contain sex, you can't make a film about Caligola without it, but not at this level. A nice shocker. I was too distracted to notice the story or acting. Now that I own it, I can check it out again.
