in a film of Kafka's The Trial.

I haven't seen the movie yet, but based on the public hype, and on what
I've read in reviews, it seems to me just like _Batman Returns_ all over
again. Especially the general criticism of people who didn't like it seems
to be
that it looks good, but it's a sequence of soundbites. This sort of word of
mouth killed _Batman Returns_ (deservedly IMHO) and I suspect it will exact
a heavy toll on Dracula.

This disclaimer appears at the end of the credits for A RIVER RUNS THROUGH IT,
and refers to the fishing scenes.  I wonder how a fish feels about being
held out of the water by the gills, or carried around in a small wicker basket.
This must be an emotional trauma, if not a physical one.  I also wonder who
trained the fish to jump out of the water like that.

There was also a fight scene between two of the actors, but I don't recall
any mention in the credits that no persons were harmed during the filming.  

In all seriousness though, a very enjoyable movie!

Well, Great Train Robbery and The Terminal Man have both been done.
GTR with Sean Connery and Donald Sutherland directed by Crichton and
Terminal Man starred George Seagal.

I agree except for one point. If you would have read the book, you would 
know about Quincy Morris from Texas and the major part he played in the 
story. That is a minor point, but one I felt compelled to mention.

     And after this, Branagh has another interesting project: he's going

     Victor Frankenstein himself.  The project will be produced by
     Francis Coppola's American Zoetrope and Jim V. Hart (screenwriter of

"Love Field", the Orion film starring Michelle Pfeiffer that has been
sitting on their shelf for a year while Orion was bankrupt, is probably
going to get a one week early release in LA and New York, for Academy
Award consideration.  Originally, the plans were to release it next
February, but Orion considers this year's crop of female roles to be
exceptionally weak, and thinks Michelle Pfeiffer has an excellent chance
not only of getting a nomination, but winning an Oscar.  An Oscar for
a post-bankruptcy Orion release would go a long way towards establishing
their renewed viability in Hollywood.  I believe the normal release of
"Love Field" will still take place in February.

	Doesn't she?  I thought she was playing the college student the cops
talk to when they're trying to figure out whether or not the pictures were
doctored (not knowing who's cast for which part can make things difficult);
that character had a speaking part.

So, how many versions are there?  The version I recorded off of US cable
TV (about 3 years ago) ends with Jaques swimming away into the big blue.  It 
also has a Bill Conti soundtrack.  I've never seen the "happy ending" version

NO, NO, NO!

After that ABOMINATION, please tell me that the post saying there is going
to be a Highlander 3 was just some cruel joke.  Or at least, someone
please console me by saying that they are going to just ignore all this
Zeist nonsense.  Highlander was a classic and the TV series actually has
some potential if it survives the censors, but not another so-called movie
that chops the original plot line to pieces.  Could someone please fill me
in on this Highlander 3: The Vanishing?  Gods, even the title sounds silly.

And remember, THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!

Just saw it.  I thought it was pretty good.  Everyone's made some good
points.

Did anybody catch the reference being made when the Count scratched his
belly with his fingernail so that Mina could suck the blood from the wound?
I don't know if that's from the book (probably, I wish I knew) but the
exact same scene was in the made-for-tv version of Dracula (approx. 1974)
starring Jack Palance as the Count.

Anyone else remember that one?  Pretty scary for me, an 8 yr. old.
