Anyone notice the un-bleeped version of Altered States with William Hurt on
Australian television last night? I watched for about 20 minutes and 
couldn't find a single dubbed 'f'-word in that time. Isn't this just a little
odd for Aus TV?? What would the ABT have to say? (Ooo-eerr)

Hardly.

She's currently hosting the PBS series MYSTERY, and appeared last year
(or the year before) in one of their productions, playing a murderous
mother.

I am currently reading the December copy of a magazine called ``Cleo''; an
Australian teenage girl-type publication.  It has an article called
``Sex in the Movies'' and an accompanying table listing both male and
female exposure in films (using Greta Scacchi, Ellen Barkin, Richard Gere
and Mel Gibson as examples).  Of the two men, apparently Richard Gere had
full frontal uncovered scenes in both ``Breathless'' and ``American Gigolo''.

Frank Langella is still around.  As a matter of fact, I played a game of
Pictionary with him a few years back.  You may (or may not) have seen him
in Roger Vadim's more recent "...and God Created Woman" (not the one with
Bridgette Bardot but rather Rebecca DeMornay).  He also played Skeletor in
"Masters of the Universe" with Dolph Lundgren.

I think you're a bit mistaken here, Ken.  The title of the movie with Max Von
Sydow (also Julie Andrews, Richard Harris & Gene Hackman) is "Hawaii" while
the other one with Charlton Heston, Yvette Mimieux and George Chakiris is 
"Diamond Head." 

There's a sequel to "Hawaii" and it was titled "The Hawaiians" starring
Charlton Heston & Geraldine Chaplin (it bombed!).

Hope this helps.

Also, if any of you like grotesque films, I would recommend "Santa Sangre (Holy Blood) from Alexander Jodorowsky.

a recent interview with Lucas in the last issue of the LucasFilm Fan
Club. He stated right now he is still working on Young Indy. In the

parts I-III. It will deal with a young Ben, and Anakin Skywalker, and
the Clone Wars. We should see the films BETWEEN 1995-2000. You people

	Actually, the long, rambling pace of _Until the End of the 
World_ is typical of Wim Wenders, a German director.  If you
thought that movie was slow, check out _Kings of the Road_, one
of his first, from the mid-70s.  Damn, is that movie boring!
However, Wenders also made one of my favorite movies of all time,
_Wings of Desire_.  If you found anything at all intriguing about
_UtEotW_, I strongly suggest renting _Wings of Desire_.  It's the
story of an angel in Berlin, a few years before the wall came down
(it came out in this country around 1987, I think), who falls in
love with a woman and wants to become human so he can be with her.
It's not exactly MTV-paced, but I find it a lot more focused and
interesting than the other Wenders stuff I've seen, and more
visually fascinating, so the slow pace is OK.
	I was a bit disappointed when I finally saw _Until the End of
The World_ a few months ago.  I'd seen the soundtrack in stores
since the spring...a lot of great names (U2, Depeche Mode, REM,
Nick Cave, etc., etc.).  But my conclusions about the movie wer
that it should be viewed as a kind of global road movie.  Wenders
seems to want to go beyond the typical feature-length film 
aspiration of tellinga  nice, neat story with rising action, a
climax, and falling action, with appropriate character development
along the way.  _UtEotW_ has all of these, but when you think it's
going to end, it keeps going.  It's sort of like he threw in a
couple more acts than most movies have...and ultimately, that's not
a bad thing.  It demands a bit more of the viewer, but there is
much to be appreciated in the end.  I think I may like the film
even better next time I see it.
	Incidentally, for anyone familiar with _Wings of Desire_, I
hear Wenders is working on a sequel called _Far Away So Close_.
Does anyone know anything else about this?

Another kind of editing is visual.  I know that they cut out
various scenes of nudity or simulated sex but what about
visuals jokes such as the following:

1) Airplane II - a feminist talk show is discussing the impending
   disaster, with another woman interpreting what is being said
   into sign language for the deaf.  As one of the panelists says
   that the disaster wouldn't have happened if vegetarian feminists
   had been in charge, the signer starts rolling her eyes and making
   "jerking" motions with her hand.

2) Silent Movie - The studio bosses shows his executives a poster of
   madeline kahn and asks them what they think.  They all turn to face
   the conference table and make a great show of deep thinking.  After
   a moment the table begins to rise.



Anyone know if these (or any like them ) were cut from TV releases?

I agree that it's a great film, but if you're going to pay tribute to

It's James Stewart, Richard Attenborough, and Ernest Borgnine.  And for all
I know, you misspelled Hardy's name, too.

I agree that it's the characters and their interactions that make this
movie, but I don't think it's fair to stereotype the designer as "one of 
those obnoxious Germanic types".  I didn't find his character to be obnoxious,
really, so much as just somewhat overbearing.  The beauty of the movie is
that the characters really get beyond the usual stereotypes (well, at least
sometimes anyway).  Without coming right out and saying it, the movie shows
why the designer is the way he is; he's had many years of not being taken
seriously because he "only" designs "toy" planes.

}Kruger, designs model airplanes. This is not revealed untill the new plane

}electric. But the people go on with the plan, and eventually finish and
}successfuly fly the plane out.

I wouldn't really call the model airplane revelation "ingenious".  It
was just one interesting aspect of an interesting movie.  My favorite
scene, I think, is when Stewart's character takes back his authority
by using one cartridge with the ignition off, and the designer screams
"No!" to no avail, of course.

This was a dark, depressing, twisted movie, with more misogynistic and  
homophobic dialogue than I'd ever heard in 90 minutes.  It probably DOES,  
however, closely reflect the life of your typical high-pressure salesman.
Very good performances by Jack Lemmon, Al Pacino and Ed Harris in a very
claustrophobic movie.

I'd say wait until it hits the tape.

Is it just me, or are we to assume Snipes is passenger 57?  I've only seen
the trailers and commercials and in all of them, a stewardess is seen counting
the number of passengers going down the aisle when she stops at Snipes once
she gets to "...57".  I assume she stops there as she is taken aback by his
rugged good looks, meaningful expression and his copy of "The Art of War" or
whatever it is he is reading.

And thanks for posting all those reviews, Louis.
