|Baby Boomer Entitlement Incarnate
 
|The Robert Frost ode to White People. A garbage movie. Glenn Close bakes and cries in the shower and her hair is nice. Jeff Goldblum is gross. William Hurt is impotent(Vietnam?) and he does cocaine and has an earring. The Motown soundtrack is patronizing because it becomes background noise to the white experience or is appropriated into this bland lifestyle of people whose coolness peaked when The Beatles and Bob Dylan peaked in the culture. The movie  kills itself for a state of authenticity that was never authentic. Burn this movie/this baby boomer entitlement to the ground, start over, or give the millennials the keys.

|Julie would say she likes the movie, but the torture scene with the powerdrill is too upsetting. Not a fan of torture or women in pain. Julie thinks De Palma is a sick man, but she has a morbid but distant curiosity towards his films. The "citrus fruits" on him(two grapefruits) to cast Tippi Hedren's daughter, Melanie Griffith, to make a sleazy version of Vertigo and Rear Window and also put a Frankie Goes to Hollywood music video in the middle of a film is fascinating, but the urge to depict that level of violence and the desire to depict acts of cruelty towards women specifically and sentient creatures more broadly alludes Julie and she judges it as something deeply problematic and it hurts her heart. She likes her sadism in cringe humour.

|Very well directed film. Franz Oz takes you on a journey. He does things visually and musically that are really cool and set the tone and makes you feel like you're on a holiday. He makes interesting cuts over extended dialogue and takes you to different locations through these cuts and edits. He frames shots interestingly. There is one shot where Michael Caine and Steve Martin are talking in the lobby of the hotel Janet Colgate( aka Glenne Headly) checks in. Steve Martin and Michael Caine are in what appears to be at first an uneven frame on the right side of the screen in front of a wall, but then you notice how it's intentionally framed so that it puts Caine and Martin on the right because Glenne Headly is behind them out of focus. It's this weird shot that puts all the characters together (this is probably not that interesting). There is another scene where Ruprecht is told he is moving to Oklahoma and he is not happy about it and he knocks one breakable antique off the mantelpiece and he walks a little bit and knocks off another one and walks a little bit and knocks off another one where Julie thought and hoped Jimmy wasn't watching this scene because that is what he likes to do. FUN FACT! Did you know Frances Conroy was in the movie? She played the woman from Palm Beach who dines with Lawrence Jamieson and Ruprecht Jamieson. She is wearing a beehive. She looks matronly and tall. Ruprecht is fucking around with his cork on a fork and making circular motions on a plate of apple sauce. That whole "may I go to the bathroom thank you" exchange was done in front of fucking Frances Conroy. Julie's Bitch, Member of the Red Head Hall of Fame, and Cool Ass Bitch. Frances "Motherfucking" Conroy was in that movie.

|Julie fell asleep near the end, but this is one of the better movies that take place in a mall. Peter Ustinov recites lines from T.S. Eliot's Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats(which is also the basis for Cats the Musical) and Julie didn't know what the fuck was going on but she liked those parts and felt the rest of the movie was garbage and silly. Farrah Fawcett was in it. A little bit of Michael York goes a long way but a lot of Michael York...no thank you.

|Julie doesn't care about the Nightmare on Elm Street series, but she watched this documentary from start to finish and now knows everything about it. Robert Englund is probably terrible in bed. These aren't feminists movies if Freddy Krueger is the one you're rooting for. Freddy Krueger represents the horrible 1980's where the bad guys won. Also The Fresh Prince was a loser. Nightmare on My Street is not a pun, you idiot.

|Don't bother but there are good clips. Julie doesn't care about 30's Horror movies because she is not Robert Osborne and doesn't care about the Wolf Man or The Mummy (start with Rosemary's Baby). But she did learn about a movie called The Stuff which is about junk food that turns people crazy. Julie likes it when people talk about Horror movies and say "sounds like real life today, right?" Also,regarding the more violent torture-based horror films, things like "look at what's on the news! That's worse!" No it isn't because our version of the news is Kathie Lee and Hoda.

|Julie coke-splained what brought about this film and how weird this film is even though she remembers her family thinking it was a standard family film when in reality it is pretty weird. Everyone making it(Robert Evans, Jules Feiffer, Robert Altman) was like "Toot toot up the patoot" with dunes of white stuff they had just lying around. This is what coke could accomplish.  The residents of Sweet Haven are weird. "He Needs Me" is beautiful. "He's Large" is one of the best musical comedy moment songs. Linda Hunt is in it but not in it enough, but there is an Octopus.

|Just gross. A very silly and gross movie that looked like Nick Zedd tried to make a porno in Canada and then he got bored so he just started playing with doodee. The gross out sub-genre of horror is like kids playing with poop. It doesn't tickle the mind! Not like The Stuff!

|FINALLY! Julie really took the Twilight Zone movie down a notch. Not a good movie, especially when you consider that people died making it(Vic Morrow, Myca Dinh Le, and Renee Shin-Yi Chen) and John Landis had enough footage to work around it for his dumb vignette. Also Dan Aykroyd and Albert Brooks sing Creedence in the beginning? Scatman Crothers can read the phonebook to Julie but she had to skip through that "Kick The Can" segment.

|The Wiz
 
|Sidney Lumet
 
|
 
|Musical
 
|A bad idea. The Wiz IS an icky experience or could be an icky experience if you haven't had nostalgia or affection for it. There is a 70's darkness to it that is quite scary in places and in others there is a saccharin brightness that people at the time thought would be delightful to children and maybe was to some but that mold and dust aged it so quickly that it became grotesque seemingly overnight. The Wiz is like a Birthday clown. A sad, crying clown that came to a child's birthday party and doesn't know why everyone is upset. It is like a dried macaroni collage that you made for your mom in the 70's and stayed up in the fridge since then and the pasta yellowed as the construction paper fades on the avocado coloured fridge door. That's what watching The Wiz is to Julie visually. Emotionally it is a whole bunch of other unpleasant things. Everytime Julie watches it she stops at a certain point. This time it was when Michael Jackson as The Scarecrow asks the crows passively and submissively to stop eating his body. Human beings dressed as crows eating him while he warmly says "Good Morning Everyone! I hope you are enjoying your breakfast!" Julie could not handle it. She stopped watching and then started watching August: Osage County and shut that off when Julia Roberts started talking. They're called Boobs, Ed.
