Who reveals one of the reasons he made his new flick Invictus. It just seems like we’re making a lot of mistakes on this whole calling everybody racist. Everybody’s calling everybody morons and nuts. We’re becoming more juvenile as a nation. The guys who won World War II and that whole generation have disappeared, and now [...]

Mystery and music fight for space in my life, and music is gaining. I was fortunate enough to be sent an early copy (by Nicholas Latimer at Knopf, one of the best book publicists and enthusiasts in the business) of The Complete Lyrics of Johnny Mercer . And the icing on my cake was the DVD, Johnny Mercer: The Dream’s on Me , co-produced by Clint Eastwood, written and directed by Bruce Ricker,...

Movie Precious ain't so Precious By Cassandra George Sturges, MA, MA, Psy.D Media critics have hyped the performances of Mo'Nique and Gabourey Sidbe as Academy Award winning performances, but I thought that the performances were standard and overall, I gave the movie Precious a letter grade of C+. First foremost, I must admit that I am a diehard Mo'Nique fan. I think that she is gorgeous, beautiful,...

Trilogies make for good conversation fodder. My preferred trio is the Bourne movies, because the first movie was really good and then the series got better and, inexplicably, even better in round three. That just doesn't happen that much. But you could argue Star Wars , Lord of the Rings , even The Godfather , on the strength of the first two movies. Not to be overlooked is Sergio Leone 's Man With...

There are some movies where actions speak louder than words. Then there are some movies where words are all that matter. Most of us have pretty good ears, but even then subtitles help us understand some language nuances better. Clint Eastwood’s drawling sarcasm is sometimes hard to catch in those classic westerns. And if you [...]

The Left Coast blogging crew saw Clint Eastwood's latest directorial effort -- an inspirational Nelson Mandela rugby movie with Morgan Freeman and Matt Damon -- on the Warner Bros. lot two or three days ago. They were told absolutely no reviews or Twitterings until Monday, 11.30....

More rain is predicted this week at the farm, colourful rainbow rain that is. I've been working on this mobile for a while now, coming back to it when inspiration struck. I'm still umming & ahhing over how I shall hang it, so it's not quite finished yet. Should I use fishing line or ribbon do you think? The edges of the cloud & droplets have been finished with a blanket stitch & the droplets...

Received an email about Clint Eastwood 's Invictus this week. I'll have to share anonymously but I do know the person who sent it so it's legit. He's much more of an Clint fan than I am, but he wasn't too impressed. He sees a somewhat mixed Oscar response coming, but a big hit. Here's what he had to say: It’s very surprising in that it isn’t very well-made (and if Clint is anything, he’s...

The second scariest teacher at our high school was called Harry Brown. He could silence a room of misbehaving scrotes just by walking down the hall. He once gave me the bollocking of a lifetime for knocking on the church door and not running away as fast as my mates. I couldn't sleep for a week, worried the police were going to come knocking and drag me away to borstal for my crime. You didn't fuck...

I enjoy looking through the resources that Learner.org has available and have used a few of them through the years. This is the first time I've noticed a course on film . It's dated from 1995 and has 13 separate segments. The site describes the American Cinema course this way: Using clips from more than 300 of the greatest movies ever made, this series explores film history and American culture through...
