Today is the 109th anniversary of one Chester Gould the creator of Dick Tracy. Every time Dick Tracy (1990) comes up, I think "you should watch that movie again!" but I never do. I think I'm still mad that Warren Beatty kept cutting away from Madonna's "More" performance... which should've easily been one of the best movie musical numbers of the 90s (sigh). Otherwise I quite like...

Happy Birthday to Estelle Parsons 82 today There was a point when the screechy Estelle was a force to be reckoned with. These days she's taking life easier, but still finding the time to help Al Pacino with his Salome documentary.

For A Day in the Life pt. 1 click here . When we left: Tom Cable was waiting for players to arrive for their Monday meetings. Cable, trying to rub away the pickaxe-wielding gnomes in his head, is waiting for Russell while trying to think of a new way to reach him. “Maybe I should invite him over for dinner like Al Pacino invited Steamin’ Willie Beamon in On Any Given Sunday . Wait, that’s...

Mrs The Millbrooker and I watched The Merchant of Venice the other night; the version starring Al Pacino as a character defining Shylock. Simply wonderful. So good I thought I'd stick up the monologue here; the video of Pacino in full flow is at the bottom. The spacing of the lines of the speech is mine (Willy Shake did things a bit differently, but the wording and the punctuation is all his). For...

[Guest post by Mr. Moneybags ] Don't get me wrong, budgets are definitely attractive on their own merit , but if you were to line them up side-by-side next to stocks, it would be like comparing the attractiveness of Al Pacino to the attractiveness of Megan Fox. I mean, sure, Al Pacino is a rather cool and attractive old man but not many guys would give up one of their testicles to spend a night with...

Buys Based on how impressed I was with staged Shakespeare productions put out by Thames TV (Macbeth and Twelfth Night), I completed my collection with their King Lear and Romeo and Juliet. And I finally found a DVD copy of Al Pacino's Looking for Richard (so I can retire my old VHS tape), but it came in a boxed set with Pacino's other indy work, Chinese Coffee and The Local Stigmatic. And just when...

A very interesting interpretation of The Office as a structural re-envisioning of corporate culture . I have to admit that in my experience, the Gervais Principle, as the author names it, is superfiically more convincing than either the Peter or Dilbert Principles. This is where Gervais has broken new ground, primarily because as an artist, he is interested in the subjective experience of being clueless....
