What's a really good movie no one really talks about?
Probably a lot of people here would pooh pooh it, but I thought "Paradise" with Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith and a VERY young Elijah Woods was a touching film with beautiful cinematography.
DL Book Club: "Mike Nichols: A Life," by Mark Harris
• Harris says Nichols thought of "Working Girl" as a satire of the grasping Reagan 1980s and intended the last shot to symbolize Melanie Griffith's character as being absorbed into the landscape of greed, but audiences found her triumph in a most unironic way.

Fun Fact: she was portrayed by Melanie Griffith in the little-known Australian film THE NIGHT WE CALLED IT A DAY (2003).

The 80s episodes are the ones to watch if you're seeing the show for the first time on YouTube. There's so much to enjoy. For me the Barbara and James Stenbeck storyline is the continuing thread that's worth watching all the way until the end of the series. As for Luke and Noah though, I wanted to like their story but it's terribly dull ( like much of ATWT circa 2004-2010), and the actor ...
Which Actor Made You Realize You Were Gay When You Were AKid?
None. I realized that by myself. I suppose my first tv crushes were Batman and Robin, Will from Lost in Space, and Jody from Family Affair. I was very disheartened to find out Will was a dirty hippy in real life as I didn't know Lost in Space was an old show.

Interesting listicle in The Guardian - a bit British focused, but figured DL'ers would have opinions about the list and/or who they'd put on their own list of terrible characters that ruined a ...
Famous people with Borderline personality disorder/BPD

Now you hook them in the first 20 seconds or forget it. Just imagine the Brady Bunch without it's opening boxes, the whistling on Andy Griffith, the voyage of the Minnow, the Green Acres theme song, or Samantha's frypan. I heard that using the iconic opening of Hawaii 5-0 was in doubt until the last minute on the re-boot.

Patricia Michael, who was Melanie in the West End Gone with the Wind, found that her vocal challenge with Eliza is you start the show with a husky, back of the throat sound (characteristic of a cockney dialect) then transition (without a break at all, really) into a traditional soprano sound with “I Could Have Danced All Night”.
REVENGE II: The Tom Bower Book Discussion. - the Data Lounge
Harry looked and sounded hungover, but considering the smattering of an audience, none of whom were paying much of attention, it didn't matter.
