I need to rewatch my TTSS dvd before I see the movie (whose premiere I saw disappointing stage actor Sam Waterston duck out of, one block away from where I saw David Lynch, as it happens). I'll probably never actually see the movie in the theatre, though.

i don't know that you'll miss much vs screening at home, tbh

"Serious" questions:
1. Is Shame the most heterosexual movie of the year?
2. Is it socially acceptable (pick your milieu) for homosexuals to express disgust at expressions of heterosexuality? Should it be?

I don't usually get much out of Anthony Lane, but I loved his writing about TTSS. A British thing, probably.

No -- Beginners is.

2. Is it socially acceptable (pick your milieu) for homosexuals to express disgust at expressions of heterosexuality? Should it be?

It has been for three thousand years but you people never learn.

A lot of things were acceptable 3000 years ago. Didn't Plato write about this Sandusky fellow?

dude, I loved the '79 miniseries, and I really didn't understand the film either.

I had to watch it twice to fully grasp the competing interests/motivations/schemes, which I actually found refreshing.
