Rhinoceros, 1974

was just reminded of that movie; it's playing here soon (but on a smallish screen) and is also on Kanopy.... wonder if i should give it a whirl.

Was just reminded too! Posted it because the big Alt. Theatre company here in town is doing a production of the play and they just shared that poster/cover on FB.

Almost all of the above brought to you by me IMDB'ing Pat Morita at 2:00 AM.

Snowballing (1984)

"What Hot Dog: The Movie did for skiing.... oh wait"

busy? sort of. claustrophobic? hell yes. caricature? ...does photoshopping so half-arsedly and ineptly that everyone looks like a slightly melted wax figure of themself count?

the most disconcerting thing about that image is..... whose hand is on Ed Helms's shoulder? Walken? Close? Owens?

like here are 8 heads and a hand. make sense of it.

Louis "ROSCOE" QUINN

wow. can't believe i've never heard of that. i'm sure it's terrible but possibly it's fascinating.

Movie seems pretty heavy, man.

Rita, still bearing the sting of the good looking Dr. Woodal’s rejection, plans a spiteful revenge, along with her hateful brother, Grady. The romance between David and Sandy has now flowered into marriage plans. Rita and Grady learn of the wedding date. They spike the ice cream with LSD and the wedding ceremony ends in a tragic freak-out, as the guests go psychedelic, and one of the hippies, under the influence of the drug, kills himself.

Jerry, dejected, disillusions You Know by telling him his garden of “grass” is a garden of weeds.

wow yeah sounds like a serious drag. hate all those post-easy-rider "we blew it" bummer endings for the sake of bummer endings.

Least we know the Danny Masterson remake won't be happening.

lol Mick Dolenz as "YOU KNOW"

imdb'd Ann-Margret, and found she had a nice lil' run of these in the late '70s/early '80s

Iron Man christ pose is he gonna die in this

this would have been a much better poster if they'd gone full-on busy/claustrophobic caricature style and given everyone a comically over-sized head instead of just Robert Downey jnr and Don Cheadle

There’s a big Stanley Kubrick auction happening in Italy. Among the many treasures is this note requesting a print of “Hot Stuff” directed by and staring Dom Deluise. SOLD! https://t.co/9jWANoaG2A pic.twitter.com/ZWk5dscpI6
