(Sorry, for some reason that line from Bad Seed has always stuck.)

I saw Gaslight the other day. Loved it. Can't believe I have never seen it. I think this was a mousepod recommendation, but I'm not sure.

Anyone else heard of the movie Growing Out? In spite of the word "Out" in the title, it does not at all appear to be a "gay film". In spite of that obvious flaw ;), the story seems pretty intriguing. Please go to that site, watch the trailer first, then read the synopsis, then tell me what you think.

Gonna Netflix it someday for sure.

Trailer doesn't do anything for me, and the synopsis doesn't help.

Certainly doesn't mean it isn't a good movie but what I've seen wouldn't have me putting out any money for it.

Without combing back through the thread, I believe it was Alex who made the comment of Langella's Nixon that it started out not seeming right, but eventually "locked in" (my term) and became very compelling. If I am remembering that comment correctly, I totally agree. I was having much trouble accepting him as Nixon for the first couple of scenes, but it eventually clicked and I thoroughly enjoyed the portrayal.

I wonder how much of my initial inability to accept it has to do with the fact that my mental model of Nixon is entirely saturated by Billy West's ridiculous version.

I think Frost should interview Bush.

Just keep in mind that the movie (and play) tweaked that drama of it all.

Ok - I think the fictional character of Frost should interview a fictional character of Bush that actually admits wrongdoing. I'd at least leave the theater satisfied.
