I don't know as I had the experience of that seeing that film surgically removed from my brain.

Sounds like Cannes is turning into a crime ridden cesspool.

If you outlaw starting pistols, then only outlaws will have starting
pistols.

Most heterosexual men wouldn't say that.

Never post something on the internet unless you have a point of

Your homophobia will be an asset once the Muslims
come to town.

calvin, I know you're gay and all, but can you explain how wanting to
see Rebecca Romijn naked has anything to do with homophobia?

It doesn't, but insinuating that one who doesn't like the
movie isn't heterosexual has everything to do with it.

I thought Femme Fatale was great. Put me in the hetero column. But
on the other hand, De Palma's tendency towards camp and operatic
excess . . .

What would you say DePalma's best movie is?

Hard to say. My personal favorites might be Phantom of the Paradise
and Carlito's Way.
