Speaking of deleted scenes, I have only seen Shawshank on tv. I wonder how chopped up it was? They tend to delete not only bad language but scenes as well sometimes. If it comes on HBO sometime I should see it in its entirety.

We bought my husband the DVD a few years ago. Every now and then, Target has it really cheap. You should treat yourself to a copy.

That's right, Babe.

The final scene was shot in close-up and long range. They obviously decided to go with the long range shot of Andy and Red reuniting on the beach, but Frank Darabont has said over the years that he'll eventually release the close-up ending as an extra on an annivesary edition of the dvd/blue-ray. But I'm not holding my breath. I'd really LOVE to see it, though.

The novella's ending was more ambiguous, but this is one instance where the film's ending worked better with an improvisation by the director.

The fact that you walked out on it. lol

I had seen that on video shortly after the movie's theatrical run and I was highly impressed by it.

To each, his own, I guess.


Highly impressed by it? And yet you complain about GFIII? Madonne!

Far out, man!


It's actually Pryor and Louis Gossett, Jr. It's a strange though not awful episode. I've always assumed it was planned to be a pilot for a show that didn't get made.


Are you sure about Gossett? It looked alot like Roundtree.

Does anyone want to watch "New Girl"? This is one of the quirkiest and funniest shows I've ever seen.

Is it a Fox requirement that all of its female hosts be blond?

I'm not sure of the relationship between Fox and Fox 5, which is a local station here in NY, but the morning anchor on Fox 5 is a brunette named Roseanna Scotto.

Channel 5 (Fox 5) is an affiliate of Fox News.

Roseanna Scotto is a daughter of former Gambino Family bigshot Anthony Scotto.

I missed Mad Men last night and am waiting for it to come to "On Demand". I wasn't gonna watch it cause it's annoying how long between last season and this. I do like the show and will and admit I am tempted to tune in. Plus RR said the Paul McCartney may make an appearance sometime this season. What can I say? I'm in. smile

Actually I must correct myself: It later was revealed that Paul won't appear in Mad Men. (The report mix-up came from one of his songs being featured sometime this season, not an appearance. Sorry TIS.)

Aw, too bad. It would have been "workable" to get any Beatle to fit into that era. That's ok though. wink

I see it will re-air tonight at 9:00 p.m. (PDT) so I'll be able to catch it.

I'm watching Woody Allen's 1980 Stardust Memories with Charlotte Rampling. I can't believe how active she still is in movies at her age.

Her stand-out role for me was in "The Verdict" with Paul Newman. They were both great.

Does anyone watch the new tv show with Ashley Judd, "Missing?" I watched the first episode and am catching up on "On Demand." It's actually quite good so far.
