I'm going to have to respond to this in parts because my drinking is getting in the way of proper thought, but let me start with this: The Battle for Algiers is incredible. I need to see it again, but my first time seeing it (maybe five years ago) was one of the most powerful, resonating movie experiences of my life. That'd be a good top five list. Maybe I'll do that.
Punishment Park is now officially on my list.
What's your favorite Italian film? Parli Italiano? Other languages?
Huzzah! Well stated, as usual. You're right about the great grand kids. I'm just assuming they're old enough now. (wasn't the man in his '90s?) but there should be a point where you can't punish the kids. I guess I'm just a vindictive son a bitch, and I get a tiny amount of satisfaction imagining his family suffering together. Maybe even the kids. Aaargh, that's not right. But it feels so good.
The hilarious things about today: Thatcher at least lived up to her billing, and announced that she was saddened by Augusto's death. The US State Dept, meanwhile, put out some release about the victims of his regime.
It must be nice to rule a country with no sense of history, eh?
Goddamn it, I never do justice by you comments. I'lll have a sober session on here soon, and we must discuss things more inj depth. My fcking keyboard issticking. Aaaarght@!
