R.I.P. 'Eli Stone'

last weekend abc aired the final episode of this witty, ingenious, charming and intelligent show.
shame on abc for canceling this innovative series.

Liz Cheney: Another VILLAGE IDIOT Heard From

What I Am Watching This Summer

the best of the new ones is 'royal pains'.

and starring the hot yet talented mark feuerstein is a major plus.

i like all of these summer shows.
also the return of the cable shows.
for the most part i find them more satisfying than regular network episodic tv.

'in plain sight' and 'the closer' remain the tops for me this summer season.

'Countdown' on the Idiot "Birthers"

'Yes My Heart'

a few years ago at the encore series in nyc i saw anne hathaway in 'carnival'.
i was impressed.
....then came the most underwhelming performance in 'brokeback mountain', the walk through performance in last year's, i believe straight to video, 'passengers' and the hysterical, whining and yet somehow oscar nominated performance in the god-awful 'rachel getting married'.
don't even get me started on 'bride wars'.

but back to 'carnival'. rumour has it that ms. hathaway may join hugh jackman in a film remake of 'carousel'. with the charm she showed in 'carnival' i believe she could make a delightful julie jordan. here's hoping. and if she's not available how about emmy rossum.

from 'carnival': 'yes my heart'

'Edge of Love': D+

i finally got to see this one on video. now i know why this art theatre film did not get much of a theatrical release. it's a tough movie.
a drunken self centered dylan thomas does not actually scream entertainment.
the screenplay if factual was tough material.
the only redeeming qualities were the performances of keira knightly and cillian murphy as the lover's who had to deal with the f. scott/zelda insanity of yet another author (thomas) and his whacked out wife caitlin both overacted and underwhelming played by sienna miller and mathew rhys.
so now i have my first pick for one of the worse films of 2009.

forget this one as film history undoubtedly will.
