"I wanna dip my balls in it!" "Maybe you should try ... pants." "$240 worth of pudding." If any of these phrases ring a bell, then you were probably a fan of MTV's sketch-comedy show The State. I get psyched...

And that’s definitely the case with BEING THERE. I was a little late to the Hal Ashby party, only seeing HAROLD AND MAUDE maybe 4 or 5 years ago. Sure, I saw both SHAMPOO and COMING HOME in my childhood (weird that it’s those two, isn’t it'), but even those I don’t remember much of. HAROLD AND MAUDE I’ve seen probably half a dozen times since that first viewing. It’s an immensely rewatchable movie...

A new movie-recommendation site just launched called ClerkDogs. How does it differ from Netflix, its top competitor for film suggestions? This one relies on former video store clerks for information. It's an interesting idea, and it's kind of nice to...

Pondered the movie Brewster McCloud last night. It is among my favorites. Bud Cort, as Brewster, secretly inhabits the Houston Astrodome where he builds wings so he can fly. It juxtaposes this huge domed testament to Texas excess with the...

If you've ever suffered through the cult classic Harold And Maude , you know that it's one of the most annoying movies ever put to screen. Harold (Bud Cort) tries his hardest to live out his suicide fantasies, and thus drive everyone around him crazy — except his mother, who has simply learned to ignore him. He stumbles into Maude (Ruth Gordon), who embodies Life in a symbolism so thoroughly thick-witted...

We just got this email: Hi. I noticed a big notice for ASK A MEXICAN book signing. Did he pay for that? I would like to send you my booksigning event information for editorial consideration.

Can this be something for...

Filed under: Celebrities and Controversy , Newsstand At the end of last month, an interview with classic Harold and Maude star Bud Cort popped up on the Austin American-Statesman . It's rather ... biting -- and not because it was a discussion over breakfast. From the get-go, you can tell that interviewer Chris Garcia wasn't happy with the whole experience, in a way that brings to mind Steve Buscemi's...
