Thread Name: Just say NO to Hollywood!
Subject: RE: Just say NO to Hollywood!
well usually I think Hollywood films are CRAP! (I have to watch a lot of them for my job)

So, I guess when something as wonderfully intelligent and effervescent as Shakespeare in Love comes along and is, ostensibly, a Hollywood film, I wish to celebrate it, for reminding me of the great things Hollywood used to be known for, and is still, occasionally, capable of...

BTW, just saw a NON Hollywood film today and highly recommend it: Session 9. Probably one of the scariest damn films I have seen in a long time (and I am a horror film buff).

Also saw the newly restored print of Fellini's Juliet of the Spirits and it is lovely...do see it if it comes to your area...
