On the Media was both fair and ruthless about Penn last episode.

Penn has been cropdusting the American moviegoing public for 35 years.

I still think about this every once in a while and laugh.

Heartfelt thank you.

“Behind decorative gabion walls, an elderly neighbor sits centurion on his porch watching Bob with surreptitious soupçon.” ― page 71

You have to admit that it's a kind of perverse accomplishment to have written prose that awful. I'm not sure I could write anything that ugly either on purpose or by mistake.

Where did all the laughs go?
Are you out there, Louis C.K.?
Once crucial conversations
Kept us on our toes;
Was it really in our interest
To trample Charlie Rose?

think I know who the real author is

Maron really wants to be his friend

the fraternity of late-middle-aged white guys with questionable facial hair, rage issues and a barely-repressed taste for cocaine

omg, just heard some of this on the radio. And some posters give me shit on here for blanket disparaging celebz.

Never one for psychosexual infantilism or paedophilic fantasy, after their sex he said, ‘Good vagina. Maybe more Vietnam.’

Bob hastily exited and breathed the new morning’s Muslim air.

I thought it was just Eastern European drug dealers that were laundering money through Amazon publishing.

Couldn't find a better thread for this, so here it is. "At Close Range" has haunted me for long enough, ever since I was a kid, that even though I haven't seen it for a few years that probably makes it one of my favorite movies. I have no idea why I ever saw it in the first place. Was it a staple of cable? I didn't have cable. Were there scenes from it in the Madonna video? I don't remember the video. At the time I definitely was not a fan of either Sean Penn or Christopher Walken, and even though the based-on-a-true story movie is set 20 minutes from where I grew up, I didn't learn that until much later. Anyway, this movie has an intensely ethereal vibe unlike many others. The closest I can think of is "Near Dark," but of course that is a slightly different beast. "At Close Range" is just such a dark depiction of people at their worst, with this air of menace hovering over it like a shroud.

Never got around to seeing it, always meant to. I had to check my memory, but the "Live to Tell" video has lots of clips from the movie. James Foley directed a bunch of House of Cards episodes; he's most known for Glengarry Glen Ross.
