I still get calls from Stanley Kubrick's ghost in the middle of the night. He asks the most random poo poo and I keep telling him I'm not Stephen King, but he never listens.

I vaguely remember reading that Lars Von Trier isn't so much abrasive but is nonetheless insufferable because he is depressed in an annoying way. Like the DP on Antichrist did most of the heavy lifting because Trier had to retire to his trailer to weep all the time

That's weird, I thought Gainsbourg said Antichrist was the smoothest, most fun movie production she'd ever worked on.

Also bad taste.

There was a foreign doctor working with us and all the guys were like 'Yup. If I swing that way even an inch more I'd race you to ask him out' and 'I'm already married but... come on look at this guy!' By all I mean every one of us.

None of our women colleagues agreed. None.of them found him physically attractive. None. From his hair looking like he spends too much time on it to him being too bulky (he wasn't) they all had specific reasons why they personally weren't attracted and why they wouldn't label him as good looking in general.

was Steve McQueen unconventionally hot by the standards of his heyday, though, or is this just a retroactive judgment?

I think the nobility is bollocks but knights aren't nobles in the UK so it's fine.

Plus I'd be pretty afraid of Nolan or Thomas in full plate riding towards me on a horse with a sword in their hand.

I killed it because it became super stagnated. Everyone posting there hated every new comic book movie (fair) and it was getting even more circular in how much it argued the same topics. Just became unfun to read.
