RIP....I liked his style of filmmaking, those interwoven stories and the characters in them. " I´d rather be a stank ass hoe because I´m not stupid. Oh my goodness! I got more drugs! I´m always funny dude...I´m hilarious! Are we gonna smoke?" | |

well, there goes one of my dreams unrealized....
always wanted to be in an altman film...not that im an actor...or in filmmaking....but there's something to authentic about his films... so fitting that A Praire Home Companion is his final film...its even more bittersweat that Virginia Madsen's role as "Angel of Death" was originally a minor character made larger...maybe Altman realized his time was coming... Class Act Mr. Altman he is. Space for sale... | |

Dr T & The Women had to be one of the worst titles ever. I would have never watched a movie with that title starring Richard Gere unless I had knew who did it. My Legacy

I actually had a little cry.
I read an article recently that said cinema was "so twentieth century". I cried a little for that too. | |
