I'm not sure what to make of this. Possibly that I missed a career in Jodie Foster impressions, although I'm probably disqualified for a lot of other reasons. (Before you ask, I'm not sure I've ever even seen a lamb.) Anyway, the upshot is that I like it when you do podcasts for movies I've seen and can't be spoiled for!<br /><br />It's funny that your most favorite part is the "ha ha! fooled you, jerk!" editing that leads into the climax. It's awful effective, and I know deep in my brain's heart that virtually every movie is necessarily guilty of the sin of omission--heck, my favorite scene in the movie, Hannibal's break-out, is very nearly as at fault--but man, it really bothers me in ways that are hard to describe just how <i>bluntly</i> Demme is willing to lie to you, just to throw you off balance. Because "sex murderer cave and torture pit" are insufficient?<br /><br />Speaking of Demme, I've been meaning to watch some of his early thrillers. I think there's one where Roy Scheider apparently throws somebody off Niagra Falls. According to the box art, anyway.<br /><br />I can't believe it took me this long to get the hint for the week after this one. Jeez, I was about to guess Texas Chainsaw 2. Then it came to me. I'm sure it's been guessed already, but rest assured I know damn well what you're doing--and I approve.Hunter Allenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10925220178171355473noreply@blogger.com
