***"Passion" is the one NOT endorsed by Madonna, so you may survive after all.We'll watch it tomorrow, and it is supposed to be just a thriller/ghost movie... with just some of that... you know... passion... I just could not walk by it as it winked me from the shelf.
***Tonight I'm going to a twelve hour sci-fi/horror film trailer marathon at an "art house" theater, starting at midnight. Dunno if I can survive more than three hours of this junk, but I've got a DVD of "Dancer In The Dark" at home just in case. Bjork's Oscar wardrobe reminded me of Oksana Baiul's Olympic swan outfit (Bjork should have worn a dead bird on her head, too.)Well, better you than me, buddy, I suspect after twelve hours you would eat that swan live... and that skunk too. I haven't seen the Dancer yet, so tell us.
I guess I will finally have to put that DVD back in my big system - there ARE goodies coming. Although I must say that you can't achieve the visual effect of All About My Mother on large screen - you need more brightness for all those super-reds (love them!). So that stuff is much preferable on a HD 34" Toshiba tube - for there's none finer.
I am a sucker for brightness and brilliance. A sign of aging, perhaps?

Dan asked the same question in a private e-mail, and I answered. If anyone is curious, I am using the Projectavision DLP. I am 99% 3:4 guy...
