No guesses as to what I hope they'll have as the theme song.

as much as i could see kate pulling this off, it would take a miracle to pull of a joan crawford in this role.

i'm sure haynes knows that, and this will probably be at right angles to the film.
haynes is nothing if not savvy about stuff like this, whatever you think of the results (i think he has a good track record).

pic is in association with MGM.
how much TV has MGM been producing lately? it's on the auction block right now, and is not in very good shape, at least in terms of theatrical.

but that's NOT the Mildred Fierce sketch I saw! it was done later, a pretty close parody of the Crawford movie.

wow, this sounds good.
love most of this guy's stuff, Poison excepted.I agree with this, although I still have not seen 'I'm Not There.' 'Safe' is one of my favourite movies.

up until the mention of 'I'm Not There' here I had been reading today's discussion thinking of Todd Phillips and being seriously confused.

ive never seen the velvet goldmine but ppl think it sucks right? i pretty much hate all of that glam rock carry-on so i dont think i could handle it if it was also rubbishy. i pretty much love all his other ones tho, i'm not there is so good, dying for mildred pierce. looks kindof straightforward for him in the trailers tho, i thought it was supposed to be 2010 tho, i mean if it hasnt been on already then obv. that partic. bird has flown.

Haven't seen Safe in almost exactly twenty years; I checked the Blu-Ray out of the library. In certain shots Moore looks like the alien from the Sigourney Weaver flicks.
The only element that's didactic is the synth score.

if safe were made today -- and set in the present day, or even in the very recent past -- i'm sure the governing metaphor would have to do with the internet and surveillance.
