Jenna got an internship one summer at some sort of Hollywood production company. She was basically a go-fer who made copies, etc. No special privileges.
Pitt and Anniston were really acting swell, weren't they? Making fun of a 19-year old who couldn't answer back (because anything she said would be in the papers the next day).

I was responding to a guy who said that Spinal Tap was the only good film Reiner Directed. So it had already been acknowledged!

Like you said, just swell. And coming from just about the two biggest potheads in Hollywood to boot.

Thanks for the feedback. As I acknowledged in my post, JLH is no successor to Audrey Hepburn. However, I didn't have the same negative reactions to her effort as you guys.
Specifically, she has nowhere near the classic serene beauty Hepburn possessed, but then very few women do. With regards to her acting and her interpretation of the role, my assessments were much less harsh than yours. What you termed "carnivorous" I merely perceived as a slight excess of enthusiasm and energy level. Of course, my expectations, and hence my demands, were probably less stringent than more involved movie buffs' would be.
To: Erasmus; Lucius Cornelius Sulla
So (I'm a little rusty on my Latin) you chose the English translation?I wish!
Actually, ole Lucius was more of a "Neca eos omnes. Deus suos agnoscet" (kill them all, God will know his own.) kind of guy. Arnold "The Terminator" Schwarzenegger probably has the closest English equivalent.

Plot: A failing director is kidnapped by his successful father, before he can make another movie alienating their fan base and squandering the family fortune. A movie I might actually go see

Lucius is usually considered rather demented, I often think that he was coldblooded about his actions, not like the later crazy Emperors (Caligula, Nero, etc.). Click on my screen name for more of my thoughts on this key figure in the fall of the Roman Republic.
To: Lucius Cornelius Sulla; Erasmus
Lucius is usually considered rather demented, I often think that he was coldblooded about his actions...I concur. He was not demented, but rather cold-blooded and ruthless. However, I do find myself wishing sometimes we could turn him loose on the US Senate... /grin.
To: tarheelswamprat
I do find myself wishing sometimes we could turn him loose on the US Senate. My concern is that someone like him or his younger associates IS about to be turned loose on the country.
To you movie lovers and haters, sorry to get so off-topic!
