I'll confess I never saw a Madonna movie. Her talents that I know are as a pop star and self-promoter. Further, I admit that Ridgemont High was the only Sahwn Penn movie I've seen. Obviously, I'm not much of a movie person! Primarily becuase they are mostly so lousy, it seems to me.

So I see you may be absolutely correct on Penn's Ridgemont High performance. I've just been assuming all these years he was talented, even though I never wanted to see the other movies he made because they looked to me like basically dumb ideas in the first place.

She excels at self promotion. I am a movie fan, although at times there are movie droughts! I liked Madonna's bit part and the song in the Austin Powers movie.

Lol. Some of them were dumb! Well, don't forget, I'm a little biased about Mr. Penn. He might indeed be talented. I haven't seen any recent work. I understand he has a new movie coming out. The character is so radically different than surfer dude that I would be curious to see how he handles it.
