Two for the road

cinema à la carte

Rodge; a few days ago you said, of The Siege of Jadotville, "Maybe the best movie of all time" (the King of Hyperbole).  We just watched it, and have to agree.  It's impossible to find anything more thrilling and nail-biting! Oh my.  I'm afraid No Escape has already taken the crown of "minute-by-minute most thrilling  movie of all time."   Sorry. What's that?  Roger Elbert only gave it one star?  He's an asshole. Mo Sup is still hiding under the couch and sniveling like a baby.    And while I'm at it.  The Concubine is on a par with 1991's Raise The Red Lantern if the inner  workings of Chinese wives and concubines are of interest. Most especially, however, is a very intimate look at the court eunich structure.  Whoa! (No erections)
