    Seeing a screening of the movie was a thrill and I now have the DVD which is wonderful as well. To top it all off I just received a personally signed movie poster from Ed Harris himself with a lovely sentiment attached to it and "much love". Just a wonderful and special momento which I will treasure!

    Did you see him in "A History of Violence", Joy, made immediately after CB?
    It was hard to believe the same actor played such a brutal sadist (and I'm NOT referring to Beethoven! )

      I saw that film - and he was excellent. I was slightly more gobsmacked though by Viggo Mortensen's performance in that coming straight after Aragorn in Lord of the Rings!

      And for Terry a "chick flick" is a rather sexist putdown used to describe a film ( usually of a romantic or sentimental nature) that is only supposed to appeal to "chicks" i.e women (usually assumed to be young and easily pleased). Something a "real man" would not be seen watching, much less snuffling into his handkerchief over! " The Flicks" is an old term for the cinema or the films - referring to the flickering light and crackling noise that accompanied the showing of films made on old fashioned celluloid - these days the light is usually from mobile phone screens and the crackling from sweet packets - sigh!

        I
        Ha! Ha! Seriously, I did not see ' History of Violence' but did see many ads on it and you're right it is hard to believe the same actor played both parts. Ed Harris is a very versatile actor for sure.

          Yesterday on our screens. Extracts from press and tv.
          TV: "admirable, correct"
          Press:"H is terrible in his grey whig, trying to imitate him by bending his head (btw B always carried his head high!) and what about his deafness? the fault is the screenplayer's and the director's ... Difficult to show a two-people acting movie in which one of them is deaf, and the film fails in this aim. Anyway it is accurate, seems to be destinated to tv".
