Who are you trying to kid? Secondly, regarding your "it's a movie" comment: you're the one who goes on to say it's actually a show. He's playing himself! No? I tuned in about 7 minutes late and I thought they were in the South before realizing they were in Minnesota. What are you talking about? Wisconsin. At any rate, Streep intrigued me. Even though I've seen her when she was younger and know she's not Kelch Quality, I started imagining her as a Dunst-type from "Drop Dead Gorgeous." I liked what you said about the German/Dutch stoicism. They're scary out that way. I liked when Streep said some of the woodpeople would shoot you just as soon as look at you and that story about the sugar rush shoplifting was inspired. I also liked Kielor's little speech about the darkness. He was so detached and I never fully got a read on him until the end when they were all sitting in the diner. I decided to like him...but he looks smelly. Not stinky, just smelly in some indiscernably depressing way. Also, Altman creates a world inside that studio that never led me to think there was anything outside it so when Jones marches in from his limo you realize they're not really all that bumpkiny. Did Altman show the theatre at the beginning? I hope not. What did you make of Kevin Kline? He had a great part written for him and he does a nice job but second to Madsen he was the least necessary. I hope Lindsay comes back. She's hot but more than that she can act. And she can hold her own with the big dogs. Let's see Alba play off Streep and Fonda (Georgia Rule). Yeah, this is definitely one of those flicks you watch over and over. I haven't even gotten to Harrelso and Reilly. Their bad joke tune was hilarious. Well, it was funny. I laughed. The best one was about the wife being alive: "I don't know. The sex is still the same but the dishes are stacking up." BRILLIANT!!!
