How tragic. Damn SE Hinton. Damn those bad boys with hearts of gold. Oh, we got sex ed. In religion class. From a teacher who was 8.5 months pregnant. Propping up her sex ed book on her over ripe stomach, she would say "Girls, masturbation is a sin. And you will go to hell if you do it" And we would look at the resulting fecundity of her particular rolls in the hay and think: "Alright for you sister..."

Tom Waits plays a Soda Bar owner, SE Hinton appears as a lady of the night, and Mickey R was never more charismatic. Would the beginning of the fall of Mickey Rourke date to 9.5 Weeks?

It's another one of his dreamy exploration of adolescent males, with largely amateur actors. One interesting thing is that it's shot in the old Academy ratio, which mkes it seem peculiarly claustrophobic. It's very good and I believe it's being released here later in the year.

I buy a lot of DVDs at Amazon, because there's still a lot of stuff you can't get locally. Mickey Rourke, now there's an actor who went badly wrong. Sans Blog, that is a great deal.

If you like old movies this is a bargain, I think. Can't wait for it to arrive. http://www.jbhifionline.com.au/dvds/id/1083654 Thanks, Mark.

I've bought around 30 DVDs in the past couple of weeks and am having a nice lazy time (the 10 weeks or so of rain in the Blue Mountains plus 8 weeks of daily radiation treatment for returning prostate cancer is making me movie-friendly). http://www.jbhifionline.com.au/ PS I have been experiencing lengthy lag times with LP just about everyday this week.
