Woods life was unquestionably tragic and sad.


But the film itself is still very much a love letter to underdogs, regardless of the reality of the story.

Pretty sure Blood Simple was my number 1.


As it should be.


Coens best film. And better than anything most people could ever do.

Re: MST3K: Anti-cinema?

Are we seriously needing to have the debate of whether spook show hosts are the same as Mystery Science Theatre bleed over onto another page?

No, never, but my mother was on a game show. Some Canadian piece of shit called Definition. She wore a terrible dress and got decimated by the other team. It was amazing.

I must have had Kiss Me Deadly pretty high. Yes, a lot of this has to do with the end, but it knows how to build to that kind of nihilism perfectly.
