Should I or shouldn't I? I haven't been in a movie theatre since the last Woody Allen. I must say, though, that I'm tempted by (of all things) Domino:
It's the type of thing that normally I'd stay miles away from, but I read an article about the flick and it's got three things going for it in my books: 1) Keira Knightley. 
2) A cameo from Tom Waits. 3) An actor from Beverly Hills 90210 plays himself and engages in the following bit of dialogue with a "fan": GIRL: Omigod! My friend Gina thought you were dead. GUY: Tell your friend Gina she's a whore. 
Anyone heard anything about this flick? |

But Mickey Rourke is in it.  "I saw a woman with major Hammer pants on the subway a few weeks ago and totally thought of you." - sextonseven | |

I don't care about the dough, I just have a hard time supporting Hollywood dreck. Would that mean less money counted towards the box-office receipts?  |

I hear it's good - AND... it's based on Laurence Harvey's daughter's real life... which I read an expose about - very compelling. VOTE....EARLY | |
