"Elections? Why do we need an election? The people have already chosen."
--Fidel Castro
I just saw a very powerful movie last night that I would strongly recommend you add to your queue if you have Netflix or look for it on DVD. It is worth buying, Im going to get a copy of it.

Harry Brown - Official Trailer
This. looks. great.
Im so tired of "wuss" lead characters in movies. Finally a movie where the hero actually shoots the bad guy! Not to mention Michael Caine is one of the best actors there is.

Big Hollywood » Blog Archive » Guardian: Pretentious Moi? — Suffering With ‘Actor-Speak’
This is a very funny article about the "non-skill" of "acting". It really mirrors what I have been thinking and saying recently. I am a big fan of movies in general, but I can't stand it when they act like acting is something more than it is.
FTA: “And, lo, they kept a-coming: there was “our craft” and “the journey one goes on”. To finish, actor Christine Baranski announced that “acting is like creating life”. Considering this comment came straight after the clip showing her in the sitcom Cybill, that seemed a pretty awesome claim. Shrieking onset at Cybill Shepherd v being God –I guess it’s six of one, half-dozen of the other. …"
I do have respect for actors and some are definetly better than others. There has been a place for actors in human societies for thousands of years, just don't pretend like its a skill. I recomend reading the entire article.
