Don't forget that she was in Manhunter, the first Hannibal Lecter movie.  Her character doesn't show up until 2/3 in, but then she steals every scene, at least until the screaming starts.

I also liked the preview of the HitchHikers guide with the 42 in it (since I just turned 42 of course).

Shirley, you jest!

You need to make yourself a Joan Allen film fest:

The Contender
The Crucible
Pleasantville
Nixon (she was Pat)
Face/Off
Ice Storm (she was the one who wasn't Sigourney Weaver)

She rules!


oh that joan allen! i just imdb'ed her. i recognise her face. and i remember her in "pleasantville." she had a brown bob, right?

"Sin City", the next "Pulp Fiction" if the hype is correct.

And then there's In My Country, which pairs Sam L Jackson and Juliette Binoche. Hubba Hubba!

(I always want to call her Juliette Brioche.)

hubba hubba, indeed!
he can call me brioche, if he wants to

wow. that has to be good. i think. sam is hit or miss sometimes. but mostly hit. and i'm glad he refused to star in a film with fifty pennies. he never would have landed a brioche film after that.

now if sam and brioche get it on, that would be something! when's the last time we had an interracial - ok, black and white - lead couple in a film?

...

i remember so little of films, someone is bound to tell me there were three releasedlast year.

so i watched bubba ho-tep over the weekend. thanks for the rec, beej! at least i think it was beej. here's what i think:

Movie recommendation: Bubba Ho-Tep, 2002
Why: Because Bruce Campbell is the closest thing to an Old Elvis we're ever going to see.
Why#2: Ossie Davis plays Jack Kennedy, and he shagged Marilyn Monroe.
Best Line: "I was gyrating, you know, taking care of business, and my hip went out."

Great flick. Chef's parents would not be out of place in that retirement home.

"Three fitty? I ain't givin' no Loch Ness monster three fitty!"

I saw Upside of Anger Saturday.  Joan Allen totally rocks. And Beej & mshray would be interested to know that her 4 daughters are all played by hotties.

Yeah, I saw the trailer too.  BTW another Joan Allen must see is The Bourne Supremacy which I just rewatched on Sat.  It is one of the great post-Berlin Wall spy thrillers.  She plays a deputy director at the CIA, a smart woman in a tough man's world, and man does she knock it out of the park.  Matt Damon is quite good too, as is Julia Stiles reprising a role that was virtually a cameo in the first film & now is a central character.

As far as In My Country, I saw Ebert & Roeper give it 2 thumbs down because the romance is not very believable and the romantic subplot trivializes the drama of the actual Peace & Reconciliation Trials.

Lastly, I think "Three Fitty!?" constitutes the funniest 3 syllables ever written for the South Park series.
