I looked it up, it's in the 'morrissey & marr - the severed alliance' book by johnny rogan. On page 218 it says: Long before the fuhrer's arrival, radical carnivores had mockingly targeted vegetarians as society's true aggressors. The politics of ridicule were a handy weapon. One figure who led the attack was morrissey's victorian mentor oscar wilde. He wrote: "it is strange that the most violent republicans i know are all vegetarians. Brussels sprouts seem to make people blood thirsty adn those who live on lentils and artichokes are always calling for the gore of the aristocracy and the severed heads of kings." Wilde's words took on an amusingly ironical ring in view of morrissey's blood thirsty swipes at the royal family and demands for the guillotined head of margaret thatcher. If morrissey's dictum was "meat is murder" then wilde's witty reply was "violence is vegetarian." There's no footnote on where the wilde quote came from though. -- Jeroen - The Netherlands - www.xs4all.nl/~nbk94 - icq #15894278 All the best people have bad chests and bone diseases.

Also try to find a cinema that is > showing the 70mm print. Since Sandra's allowed to cry out in agony over La Boheme I'm going to say that I can't imagine a less interesting film of Hamlet than Branagh's. The music is pseudo-Elgar patriotic rubbish (which is even anachronistic with the 19th Century setting, God help us), the photography, all 70 mm of it, is thoughtless, substituting a relentlessly circling camera for any attempt at innovative or expressive visuals (who cares if it's cristal clear if it's boring?) & the sound-editing is dreadful: it's painfully obvious that the editorial team got scared at the length of the film and clipped the silences between the actors' lines (so even if the acting was good, it has been cut to shreds in post-production). This last problem, of course, was caused by Branagh's idiotic idea of doing 'the full text', a scheme that would have amused Shakespeare no end (since he ever only worried about 'the playable text'), although he would have understood the financial motive involved (selling the video to schools seemed to me to be this movie's raison d'etre) Derek Jacobi, Richard Briers and Julie Christie have their moments, & at least Claudius' and Polonius' characters are developed. Jack Lemmon is an embarrassment, and much as I like some of the other actors, they just don't work here, even Michael Maloney. Kate Winslet isn't any less good than any other Ophelia, maybe better than most, but Ophelia can't make a Hamlet. All in all the archetypal moment for me is when poor Simon Russell Beale, a Shakespearian actor of genius (as his Ariel suggested and his Iago magnificently proved), has to play second fiddle to Billy Cristal's gravedigger. I've nothing against Billy, I rather like him, but it was just embarrassing to watch. That's the problem with this film, it wastes loads of talent: Patrick Doyle, Ken B, Kate, Cristal,... Compared to, say, Richard McKellen's bravura Richard III, it doesn't stand up. Phew! Flame at will! Maybe I'd better apply a little salve by saying that, by comparison, Jude is quite a good flick!

So instead of "Heavenly Creatures"....Not all angels are innocent Here are some ideas of mine: "Pauline & Julietes wonderful day out"....a relationship built of bricks and moider ! "What I did during my holidays "..... "From Mario to Moider"... any other suggestions?

I'm one of those people that can appreciate a film solely on how it looks (e.g. THE FIFTH ELEMENT, SPAWN). A big part of my love for KB's HAMLET is based on the beautiful sets and cinematography.

I had an extra copy of the soundtrack that I mentioned a couple of weeks ago on the list. You should have wrote to me! :) I have sent it back to the company already. I had one because I ordered them from two places online and I forgot to cancel my one order once I had received the CD from the other store. I got it from Footlite, a company based in New York City and it took about two weeks to get because they were out of stock. I first ordered it from CD Now....they didn't have it for a month or so but sent it once they had it in stock. It was on backorder but they should definitely have it now since I sent them my copy back. The soundtrack was around $35.00 in US money at both places. Footlite was about 30 cents cheaper and arrived faster so I would suggest them. Both addresses are below though. Hope you can get it soon! I never thought I would get my hands on it and then I end up with an extra copy. ha ha! http://www.footlite.com or http://www.cdnow.com By the way....I finally let others see HC. I was nervous. I gave them a little background on it first though. It was one of my friends (a girl) and my cousin ( a guy). They both said they liked it though and my friend even skimmed through my Parker and Hulme book. Cool! Don't know if either of them are "Creatures" now though. I hope so!

Its really too early to tell what the release date will be, but supposedly it will be sometime around Memorial Day 1999. She's also supposedly dieting for her nude scene in HS, but I hope that's not true. Kate's perfect just the way she is! As for the Daphne Du Maurier movie, last I heard was that Kate was very interested in the role. But there hasn't been anything definite said about it yet. I hope she does it; it should be a really interesting role. Has anyone read the biography about Du Maurier that its supposed to be based on? Ava :) For the record, I also cannot stand Arnold. I hope this thing about Kate playing his wife is not true. That woud be just awful, IMO. --------------- END heavenly-c.v001.n857 ---------------

Date: Wed, 29 Jul 1998 22:27:18 -0700 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" After reading your email I have some disagreements to what you have said. First off I too am a sucker for period piece films but unlike you I hated, with a passion, Portrait of Lady. I thought that was one of the worst if not the worst period piece film I'm ever seen. The book was a masterpiece but this movie butchered it. I did like The Age of Innocence, Daniel Day Lewis is one of the most talented british actors, but is sadly not noticed enough. I can't believe you said that The Mirror Has Two Faces was a bad movie...I mean it isn't Streisands best but it certainly wasn't one of the worst movies in the world. If Lucy Fell was awful and so was Till There Was You....notice that Sarah Jessica Parker was in both! Inventing the Abbots was indeed a horrible film....I could barly watch the entire thing. Liv Tyler was at her worst in that film...but she was good in Silent Fall and Armegeddon. At first I hated Sandra Bullock but after seeing her in Hope Floats I think she's wonderful at drama films. I mean she should be nominated for that role. I didn't understand the last summer either...all those great stars but a bloody awful movie. Forrest Gump is one of the great movies of the 90's...its pure entertainment in my opinion. Mr. Holland's Opus was great too...Richard Dreyfus is a superb actor.

I mean, look at Jamie Lee Curtis in "True Lies". What a Tour-de-force that was (How the Oscars let that performane slip through the net I will never know). What a broad and deep performance with such a wide and varied range of acting skills she managed to squeeze out of a potentially 2 dimensional role. Lets hope if Kate takes this role she manages to get up to the standard set by Jamie. Maybe Kate will take the part if it has lots of running through water scenes, she's bloody good at that !

(*)/ (*) http://www.cit.nepean.uws.edu.au/~adayao/index.html ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Lisa sat on the floor of her old room, staring at the box that lay in front of her. It was an old shoe box that she had decorated to become a memory box many years before. Stickers and penciled flowers covered the top and sides. Its edges were worn, the corners fo the lid taped so as to keep their shape. It had been three years since Lisa last opened the box. A sudden move to Boston had kept her from packing it. But now that she was back home, she took the time to look again at the memories. Fingering the corners of the box and stroking its cover, Lisa pictured in her mind what was inside. There was a photo of the family trip to the Grand Canyon, a note from her friend telling her that Nick Bicotti liked her, and the Indian arrowhead she had found while on her senior class trip. One by one, she remembered the items in the box, lingering over the sweetest, until she came to the last and only painful memory. She knew what it looked like--a single sheet of paper upon which lines had been drawn to form boxes, 490 of them to be exact. And each box contained a check mark, one for each time. ******** "How many times must I forgive my brother?" the disciple Peter had asked Jesus. "Seven times?" Lisa's Sunday school teacher had read Jesus' surprise answer to the class. "Seventy times seven." Lisa had leaned over to her brother Brent as the teacher continued reading. "How many times is that?" she whispered. Brent, though two years younger, was smarter than she was. "Four hundred and ninety," Brent wrote on the corner of his Sunday school paper. Lisa saw the message, nodded, and sat back in her chair. She watched her brother as the lesson continued. He was small for his age, with narrow shoulders and short arms. His glasses were too large bordered on being a nerd, but his incredible skills at everything, especially music, made him popular with his classmates. Brent had learned to play the piano at age four, the clarinet at age seven, and had just begun to play oboe. His music teachers said he'd be a famous musician someday. There was only one thing at which Lisa was better than Brent--basketball. They played it almost every afternoon after school. Brent could have refused to play, but he knew that it was Lisa's only joy in the midst of her struggles to get C's and D's at school. Lisa's attention came back to her Sunday school teacher as the woman finished the lesson and closed with prayer. That same Sunday afternoon found brother and sister playing basketball in the driveway. It was then that the counting had begun. Brent was guarding Lisa as she dribbled toward the basket. He had tried to bat the ball away, got his face near her elbow, and took a shot on the chin. "Ow!", he cried out and turned away. Lisa saw her opening and drove to the basket, making an easy lay-up.She gloated over her success but stopped when she saw Brent. "You okay?", she asked. Brent shrugged his shoulders. "Sorry," Lisa said. "Really. It was a cheap shot." "It's all right. I forgive you," he said. A thin smile then formed on his face. "Just 489 more times though." "Whaddaya mean?" Lisa asked. "You know...what we learned in Sunday school today. You're supposed to forgive someone 490 times. I just forgave you, so now you have 489 left," he kidded. The two of them laughed at the thought of keeping track of every time Lisa had done something to Brent. They were sure she had gone past 490 long ago. The rain interrupted their game, and the two moved indoors. "Wanna play Battleship?" Lisa asked. Brent agreed, and they were soon on the floor of the living room with their game boards in front of them. Each took turns calling out a letter and number combination, hoping to hit each other's ships. Lisa knew she was in trouble as the game went on. Brent had only lost one ship out of five. Lisa had lost three. Desperate to win, she found herself leaning over the edge of Brent's barrier ever so slightly. She was thus able to see where Brent had placed two fo his ships. She quickly evened the score. Pleased, Lisa searched once more for the location of the last two ships. She peered over the barrier again, but htis time Brent caught her in the act. "Hey, you're cheating!" He stared at her in disbelief. Lisa's face turned red. Her lips quivered. "I'm sorry," she said, staring at the carpet. There was not much Brent could say. He knew Lisa sometimes did things like this. He felt sorry that Lisa found so few things she could do well. It was wrong for her to cheat, but he knew the temptation was hard for her. "Okay, I forgive you," Brent said. Then he added with a small laugh, "Yeah, I guess so." She returned his kindness with a weak smile and added, "Thanks for being my brother, Brent." Brent's forgiving spirit gripped Lisa, and she wanted him to know how sorry she was. It was that evening that she had made the chart with the 490 boxes. She showed it to him before he went to bed. "We can keep track of every time I mess up and you forgive me," she said. "See, I'll put a check in each box--like this." She placed two marks in the upper left-hand boxes. "These are for today." Brent raised his hands to protest. "You don't need to keep--" "Yes I do!" Lisa interrupted. "You're always forgiving me, and I want to keep track. Just let me do this!" She went back to her room and tacked the chart to her bulletin board. There were many opportunities to fill in the chart in the years that followed. She once told the kids at school that Brent talked in his sleep and called out Rhonda Hill's name, even though it wasn't true. The teasing caused Brent days and days of misery. When she realized how cruel she had been, Lisa apologized sincerely. That night she marked box number 96. Forgiveness number 211 came in the tenth grade when Lisa failed to bring home his English book. Brent had stayed home sick that day and had asked her to bring it so he could study for a quiz. She forgot and he got a C. Number 393 was for lost keys...418 for the extra bleach she put in the washer, which ruined his favorite polo shirt...449, the dent she had put in his car when she had borrowed it. There was a small ceremony when Lisa checked number 490. She used a gold pen for the check mark, had Brent sign the chart, and then placed it in her memory box. "I guess that's the end," Lisa said. "No more screw-ups from me anymore!" Brent just laughed. "Yeah, right." Number 491 was just another one of Lisa's careless mistakes, but its hurt lasted a lifetime. Brent had become all that his music teachers said he would. Few could play the oboe better than United States, he received the opportunity of a lifetime--a chance to try out for New York City's great orchestra. The tryout would be held sometime during the following two weeks. It would be the fulfillment of his young dreams. But he never got the chance. Brent had been out when the call about the tryout came to the house. Lisa was the only one home and on her way out the door, eager to get to work on time. "Two-thirty on the tenth," the secretary said on the phone. Lisa did not have a pen, but she told herself that she could remember it. "Got it. Thanks." I can remember that, she thought. But she did not. It was a week later around the dinner table that Lisa realized her mistake. "So, Brent," his mom asked him, "When do you try out?" "Don't know yet. They're supposed to call."Lisa froze in her seat. "Oh, no!" she blurted ou loud. "What's today's date? Quick!" "It's the twelfth," her dad answered. "Why?"=20 A terrible pain ripped through Lisa's heart. She buried her face in her hands, crying. "Lisa, what's the matter?" her mother asked. Through sobs Lisa explained what had happened. "It was two days ago...the tryout...two-thirty...the call came...last week." sat back in his chair, not believing Lisa. "Is this one of your jokes, sis?" he asked, though he could tell hermisery was real. She shook her head, still unable to look at him. "Then I really missed it?" She nodded. Brent ran out of the kitchen without a word. He did not come out of his room the rest of the evening. Lisa tried once to knock on the door, but she could not face him. She went to her room where she cried bitterly. Suddenly she knew that she had to do. She had ruined Brent's life. He could never forgive her for that. She had failed her family, and there was nothing to do but to leave home. Lisa packed her pickup truck in the middle of the night and left a note behind, telling her folks she'd be all right. She began writing a note to Brent, but her words sounded empty to her. Nothing I say could make a difference anyway, she thought. Two days later she got a job as a waitress in Boston. She found an apartment not too far from the restaurant. Her parents tried many times to reach her, but Lisa ignored their letters. "It's too late," she wrote them once. "I've ruined Brent's life, and I'm not coming back." Lisa did not think she would ever see home again. But one day in the restaurant where she worked she saw a face she knew. "Lisa!" said Mrs.Nelson, looking up from her plate. "What a surprise." The woman was a friend of Lisa's family from back home. "I was so sorry to hear about your brother," Mrs. Nelson said softly. "Such a terrible accident. But we can be thankful quickly. He didn't suffer." Lisa stared at the woman in shock. "Wh-hat," she finally stammered. It couldn't be! Her brother? Dead? The woman quickly saw that Lisa did not know about the accident. She told the girl the sad story of the speeding car, the rush to the hospital, the doctors working over Brent. But all they could do was not enough to save him. Lisa returned home that afternoon. ******** Now she found herself in her room thinking about her brother as she held the small box that held some of her memories of him. Sadly, she opened the box and peered inside. It was as she remembered, except for one item--Brent's chart. It was not there. In its place, at the bottom of the box, was an envelope. Her hands shook as she tore it open and removed a letter. The first page read: Dear Lisa, It was you who kept count, not me. But if you're stubborn enough to keep count, use the new chart I've made for you. Love, Brent Lisa turned to the second page where she found a chart just like the one she had made as a child, but on this one the lines were drawn in perfect precision. And unlike the chart she had kept, there was but one check mark in the upper left- hand corner. Written in red felt tip pen over the entire page were the words: "NUMBER 491. Forgiven, FOREVER." --------------- MESSAGE heavenly-c.v001.n860.3 --------------- From: lyric <dalyric@writeme.com> Subject: Re: joey lauren adams (OT) Date: Fri, 31 Jul 1998 11:23:51 +0200 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit References: <199807310443.VAA05163@lists1.best.com> > > << I LOVE JOEY LAUREN ADAMS!!!!!!!!!

But you're right, he's >still a dork and a worthless director. Someone on the list commented that giving negative opinions just is an incentive for flamewars and I am inclined to agree. I have strongly disagreed with many of the assessments on the list about actors, hyping of movies, etc. I am requesting the list that if you have a negative opinion, please generally keep it to yourself, especially if it is just an opinion vs. a critical assessment. Positive opinions, however, I am all for... so I will give my positive opinion here: Quentin Tarantino is a very unusual individual, and although his overall skills as a director is something that I cannot assess particularly well, I do have to say that I enjoyed "Pulp Fiction". I resisted watching the movie for a long time and, when I watched it on video, I regretted not watching it sooner. I will not say it was "one of the best movies ever"... but it was intelligent and interesting. A worthwhile viewing. I greatly respect him as a producer of the movie, Curdled, which is morbid but delightful. I've watched that movie a number of times and I find it hilariously funny and devilishly clever.

No more anti-titanic posts. I promise. really. but i must be the anti-everything once again... here are a few. Joey Lauren Adams annoys me. I enjoyed chasing amy as a comedy, but in her drama scenes, that little voice just made me cringe. she's beautiful, sure, but definately not my type..and moreso as an actress. maybe, in looks, it is the resemblance to Jewel, who is my arch-enemy, music wise. and Quentin Tarantino.

Jean, what sort of a part do you play in 'Snake Eyes'? After seeing the trailer I know every plot twist, but perhaps you could use some powers of persuasion to get some of us into the theaters. Finally saw 'Ever After' and yes, Mel's so great and gorgeous. The audience totally loved her in every scene, too! Here's what the Salon rev (http://www.salon1999.com/ent/) said about her... "Danielle's feistiness is only the most obvious example of the movie's anachronistic feminism. I loved it that Jacqueline becomes an ally to her downtrodden stepsister. The chubby Jacqueline has no part to play in Rodmilla's plan to marry off Madelyn to the prince. "Ever After" refuses to make Jacqueline a victim, either. Lynskey (who played Kate Winslet's homicidal soul mate in "Heavenly Creatures") has a way of wrinkling her nose with pleasure that's as endearing as the poker face she employs when turning the tables on her mother." So disappointing that the filmmakers were bent on the weight issue, since Madelyn would be the brunt of all jokes for being pinched and skinny. But the movie isn't meant to be truthful to its era so we must take what comes to us, I suppose. --------------- MESSAGE heavenly-c.v001.n861.4 --------------- From: Jane Fribit <recurring@yahoo.com> Subject: Re: not fave movies etc... Date: Fri, 31 Jul 1998 16:28:37 -0700 (PDT) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii When I was reading through the messages about people disagreeing with other people about films and who they like etc, I sort of started to ponder on why we all like Heavenly Creatures. Basically I don't understand why we are the ones so affected by it and others just pass it over like any other film. My brother is a great fan of Hitchcock's 'Vertigo' and we were comparing the two films. They are both phyically and emotionally perhaps violent but it is not the violense (definitely not) that attracts me to Heavenly Creatures, nor is it the violence that attracts my brother to Vertigo. They are scary films. Yet as others have mentioned, liking Natural Born Killers doesn't make you a serial killer, nor liking Trainspotting make you a drug addict. I think what I am trying to say, and not getting it across very well, is that why everyone isn't affected by Heavenly Creatures? We are different in our likings (eg I DON'T like Nick Cage) but yet we all seem to love this particular film. Just something I was thinking about.

There were layers of actors between the stars and the real crowd of extras. Those so-called "acting extras" had specific things to do. This was a very complex shoot. As I was being "background" I sort of hid my face behind my camera. The purpose of "background acting" is to dissapear and blend into the surroundings. I had a scene where I am popping flashes in John Heard's face as he accompanies a gurney. This was a few weeks of work.

I remember when I asked about everybody's favourite movies, and one thing I didn't expect was to see how different in our likings we are. At first I thought it would be just the opposite, but this made me wonder what makes us all love HC, and if we have similar reasons to like it or not. As for myself, it's easier to explain it, now that I came out to everybody... It was like a dream to me, to have such a deep relationship like Pauline and Juliet had, which unfortunately I didn't have. But at the same time, it was so tragic and sad; and apart from the moider (which is something I couldn't identify with, of course...) I felt I could understand, and fear, that kind of pressure on them. I don't know about anybody else, but it would be interesting to know everybody's reasons for being here (specially you, guys!). As I seem to be one of the few people here who prefer European movies to things such as NBK (no offense intended, Jeroen :)), all this talk about our likes and dislikes sounds quite interesting for me. :* Juliana. --------------- MESSAGE heavenly-c.v001.n862.9 --------------- From: lyric <dalyric@writeme.com> Subject: Re: joey lauren adams (OT) Date: Sat, 01 Aug 1998 16:49:45 +0200 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit References: <199807311709.KAA10414@lists1.best.com> Kate McFarland wrote: > Joey LAUREN Adams she is one of the hottest women around!!!!

Yes, I've been thinking about that exact same thing! The few people that have seen it that I know about absolutely LOVED it, but they aren't as fascinated by the story as I am (and we probably all are...) Am I just too obsessed (if such a thing excists) or are they missing something to see how fantastic this film really is? > Yet as others > have mentioned, liking Natural Born Killers doesn't make you a serial > killer, nor liking Trainspotting make you a drug addict.

For more than one reason. The most obvious one is that i love the film. I was really obsessed with it during the few months after i first saw it, but that phase is behind me now, i haven't watched HC for 6 or 7 weeks, and i have no intention to watch it anytime soon. But, i still know why i love it so much. It's the tragedy of the story, the breath-taking cinematography and the use of music. Of course the story is the most important, but a potentially good story is worthless when handled by less than capable people or people with the wrong intentions. Imaging HC being done by your average hollywood director with your average hollywood cast. It would have sucked big time. Then i'm also here because i love to read what people on this list have to say about HC and other films. Of course there are jean's wonderful insider contributions. But basically i love to read all posts just as much, even the off-topic ones. I've been on a few mailing lists, but this one is by far the nicest and most interesting one. >Anyway, enough lectured for today...I am a fan of low-budget films...and >I also love to see Dutch films (or is that practically the same??? >*smiles*). Ever seen one? Quite a few, actually :) My favorites: VAN GELUK GESPROKEN, SPOORLOOS and ZUSJE. However the big problem with dutch films is that there is never enough money for post-production. For example i can't remember seeing a dutch film that doesn't have audio sync problems.

It would have made sense if > you had written 'prefer european movies to things as TITANIC'. :) Of course I didn't intend to put NBK in the same category as Titanic. But they're two different types of Hollywood movies. NBK is, IMHO, a typical Hollywood movie in the sense that's 100% American, who else could do anything like it? And, as in most American movies, it's for me too explicit in its content and message. But the thing I dislike most in it is the pretentiousness in proposing an innovation with the camera that isn't as much innovative as it's tiresome. I had big arguments with some of my friends that loved NBK, for exactly that reason, and in the end nobody could convince the other part... It's a matter of taste, anyway, I just don't like it. But then you may ask, "but isn't Titanic disgustingly explicit in its content and message, too"? Of course it is, you're right. But nobody should expect more from it, I wouldn't want to see a Titanic with deep philosophical discussions or whatever. It's the same principle why I like The Sound of Music: you know what you're going to see in it, and you're satisfied at the end because it gave you everything you wanted to get out happy from the movie theater. In this sense, Titanic is a good movie, because it's just entertainment (and it even surprised me because the hero dies in the end!). Of course, I would die of boredom if I just watched these cheesy movies, but at the same time I can't stand just watching art movies all the time. Even because not "everything European" is good, too: for instance, I absolutely hate Theo Angelopoulos, he's the most pretentious and boring director I've ever known. And a shorter note about Dutch movies. They're almost totally unknown here in Brazil, but one movie I liked a lot is Antonia's Line. :* Juliana. --------------- MESSAGE heavenly-c.v001.n863.6 --------------- From: lyric <dalyric@writeme.com> Subject: Dutch productions Date: Sun, 02 Aug 1998 17:32:52 +0200 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit References: <199807312329.QAA24386@lists1.best.com> <199808011729.KAA01294@lists1.best.com> <199808011953.MAA01337@lists1.best.com> <199808020953.CAA21315@lists1.best.com> Jeroen wrote: > >I also love to see Dutch films (or is that practically the same??? > >*smiles*).

I thought he wrote and directed Pulp Fiction. I don't know.. I think that someone who is supposedly "a dork and worthless director" did a pretty good job with Pulp Fiction as a writer and director. I can't establish if he is "dork" since that really requires analysis of his behavior (I do, however, recall a very insightful and intelligent interview with Charley Rose) but I think that the degree of competence reflected in Pulp Fiction as writing and direction qualifies as greater than "worthless" as a director.

(-: Thanx... > >Marloes Let's clarify something here about my so called career. It's far from being huge. I've been kicking around the industry for about ten years (since graduating from film school). But that was mostly as a festival organiser and film critic. I obsessed over rent for too long and had to curtail my writing. In 1992 while working for a film festival in Montreal , I met Peter Jackson and Fran Walsh and they gave me my break in film acting. So after HC, I did get a few roles but they are few and far between. Few people have seen HC in Montreal - especially casting directors! There was: "Frankenstein and Me" (1996) where I play a doctor who can't save Burt Reynolds from a heart attack. "La Vengeance de la Femme en Noir" (1996) -came out in Quebec only- I played Orson again. The film was a notorious flop. "Provocateur" (don't know if it's out) it stars Jeanne Marsh. I play a soldier. "The Hunter" (yet to be completed- shooting resumes in sept)- I play a bald bodyguard to Kim Patton (Ashlyn Gere) "Babel" (not out yet- it's a kid movie with Maria DeMedeiros)I play one of 12 bald henchmen in nightvision goggles. Good luck spotting me in that one. LOL "Snake Eyes" (out friday) - uncredited role as ringside photographer. I probably can be spotted. I caught a bit on Charley Rose where I knew it was me but was not recognizeable (I was in the background being chased by security guards while Cage and Sinise were in the foreground having a discussion). Oddly enough, this is the most work I've had on a film: over three weeks of shooting. That's it for the acting list. I was turned down for roles because I have yet to be in either of the acting unions in Canada. Since HC is a NZ film idoesn't count and the rest of my roles are spread over two acting unions (French and English languages). If all my work had been in english-canadian films I'd be a full time union member and then would probaly get decent work. Oh! That Dennis Rodman thing is an episode of the upcoming TV series "S.O.F" (it stands for either "Soldier of Fortune inc" of "Special Ops Force") which begins this fall (either on cable or syndication) HC remains the only thing I can really brag about...and I can't cuz I really got this part as a complete fluke and whatever performance I turned in is really due to the director's talent. This is also how I know Kate is so talented because she made it look like having me on top of her in bed look like a pleasurable experience. I'm beginning to show up on Canadian TV as an entertainment reporter. MIDDAY is in reruns for summer but I was told they would definitely be using me this fall. Right now, I'm in "developpement hell" on two writing projects. That's the part of the project where everybody loves your idea but pay a lot of people big money to make sure they don't pay you for nothing. Meanwhile they don't pay you which is why I take whatever I can- like kissing the dirt behind some hoop jockey's boots. (No! I have no Rodman stories! He was quiet on set and very professional. I think he enjoyed the fact that in Montreal, Basketball is no big deal). Everybody does it! Even Bruce Willis can be spotted as a jury member in JAGGED EDGE and the original 1953 Titanic has Sean Connery amongst its extras. The only part that worries me is that I seem to be downwardly mobile. Then again, HC is such a great film everything I do will pale in comparison.

(*)/ (*) http://www.cit.nepean.uws.edu.au/~adayao/index.html ---------- Forwarded message ---------- We went and saw Ever After this weekend, and loved it - even my six-year -old daughter thought it was great. Frankly, we both loved The Parent Trap too, but this post isn't about romantic movies, but about history. My husband and I were trying to figure out if some of the relationships/titles were correct. To be brief - At the start of the movie, Danielle's father marries a woman with two children. He lives on an estate with servants and land. He refers to his new wife as the Comtess. BTW, this is France in the 1500's. First question or two - we can't figure out if he was titled and his new wife married into the title or whether she was titled previously. If that were the case, would she have married him at all and/or retained her title after marriage? We ask because after the death of her father, Danielle is made a servant in her step-mother's home. We couldn't decide how this could be the case. If her father had a title, wouldn't his property and title go to the oldest male heir? Could it have gone to his wife, her step- mother, and upon her death, to Danielle herself? We loved the movie but couldn't figure out the attachments. My husband thought maybe the father's title was not a landed title but a name title or that he had given the step-mother a dower estate. He thinks like a lawyer, but that's what he is.

But then, upon firstly pondering about what is in us that makes us love HC and not others, I began to ponder on what is the definition of a "cult" film. Films like Trainspotting, Taxi Driver, Quadrophenia, American Graffiti, Star Wars, The Rocky Horror Picture Show, all seem to have this so called "cult" following, thus they become a "cult" film. But why then isn't every film considered a cult film, because there must be at least one person in the world obsessed by it. I'm not saying that we are obsessed with HC. I am not obsessed - I am just a great admirer of Peter Jackson and his cast. I admire and respect the way that they brought the story to film. So I was wondering if you consider HC to be a cult film. I don't like the term, but aren't we just a cult following. Does size matter? (btw: how many people are on this list?) I also do take into account that we are not the only HC fans out there. Think of all the non-Internet people with no one to talk to. Before I found this mailing list I was alone in my thoughts.

It has also been suggested that the Titanic star is to play Arnold Schwarzennegger's wife in his next movie, End of Days. He has asked that she drop a similar amount of weight before filming commences> Dear god, I hope she tells him to get stuffed. Does this mean as well as the current 4.5 kilos (about 10 lbs)? How ludicrous. And brussel sprouts! Can this possibly be true?

Well the nervous camera movements are there for 2 reasons: 1. it's a film about the media 2. the most important character in the film is chaos. >But then you may ask, "but isn't Titanic disgustingly explicit in its >content and message, too"? Of course it is, you're right. But nobody >should expect more from it, I wouldn't want to see a Titanic with deep Being an oliver stone fan i got more or less what i expected after my 1st NBK viewing.

I don't think i will ever say TITANIC is a good movie, but i get your point. The thing is i can say the exact same thing regarding NBK. I like movies that blow me away in every aspect. But they should also leave some food for thought. And NBK did all that and more for me. Because wether you love or hate it, you can't argue the film presents some very interesting viewpoints on topics such as the media and their influence, life & death, male/female stereotypes, violence in society etc. >Of course, I would die of boredom if I just watched these cheesy movies, >but at the same time I can't stand just watching art movies all the >time.

I hate most german films, as well as all french comedies. The current crop of italian movies make me nervous. Most belgian movies suck too, as does 90% of all dutch movies (especially the main stream releases). But, i love almost everything from eastern-europe, and most of the french dramas. -- Jeroen - The Netherlands - www.xs4all.nl/~nbk94 - icq #15894278 All the best people have bad chests and bone diseases.

Can this possibly be true? Sprouts definitely rank high on the (imaginary) Reiper family menu, along with primitive Weetabix, sausage rolls and fruit scones. Let us delight in one civilised response to such sordid remnants of the Fifties. Nigel Slater, 'Real Food' (1997), p. 202: 'Brussel sprouts, my bete noire of the vegetable world, should be kept as far away from water as possible. How can anything that smells as if it has already been digested be good to eat? Though shred them with a big knife and toss them with oil, chilli and garlic and you have a vegetable to relish'. > My idea of total hell: living on > brussel sprouts while listening to La Boheme and playing at being Arnie's > wife.
