| Thanks. I've seen that so it doesn't spoil anything for me. I was sure I had heard the quote in a movie but couldn't remember which one. |

| A, sort of, revelation that made a very loud clank: The last line in Eyes Wide Shut. |

Very nicely presented, yam, so that you didn't need to post a spoiler alert. Btw, the Broadway production's playbill had a character called "The Other Woman" played by an unknown actress who the audience assumed was the speaker of the above line. How clever is that? Similar would be the listing of Alec Cawthorne and Eve Channing on the cast list for Sleuth.
Yes, except that in the case of WftP there actually was a character legitimately called "The Other Woman" who was herself a part of the surprise ending and was in fact played by an unknown actress. Therefore adding to the twist. |

Sometimes the in-action music of a scene is perfectly wedded to the scene it's in. In The Year of Living Dangerously, there is a house party, with all these socially inbred whites in Sumatra, absolutetly grooving to "Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On". Linda Hunt is pumping the sky. Sigourney Weaver almost lets herself go, and the trick is that it only lasts about eight bars.
In Places in the Heart, Doc Wilson and his crew are an itinerant band, wending their way at night through the rural South, for no dramatic purpose other than to relieve the audience from the remorseless story, with a soothing "Cottin-Eyed Joe".
There must be more. |

Believe it or not, for about ten seconds into this I thought someone had had a camera on me recently, this looks so much like the way I look when I dance. Then I realized I don't wear khakis ever, and the light dawned. But wow. |

It's the old jeans v. khakis thing. When I was in prep school (yes, I was, and in one of the "best" prep schools), everyone wore khakis (which we called "chinos" in those days). I hated them from Jump Street but wore them anyway to fit in with the preppies. When I went to college I went the blue-jeans route and never looked back. I still regard khakis as the uniform of the prepster and will not go there. Even though jeans are now almost as midcult as khakis, old images, like old habits, die hard. |

| Khakis are more comfortable than jeans, but I understand where Billy's coming from. Couldn't figure out myself whether the video was him or not, so glad Billy chimed in. Whoever that guy is, he can move. |

| Cool. I could watch that all day. At least the part before the Beastie Boys--not bad, but the first two selections were so great. |
