i liked medium too, and most anything with an arquette acting in it. also, i should mention that i've changed my opinion of betty white's 'off their rockers'. i am watching a 'best clips of...' right now, and it sure is funny....:)
 


j. harris, my best new friend!:) that precious film link has put you on my short list of dc favorite persons, jay! i've just come from watching our very special actor in an episode of law and order svu, on hulu plus. AND, there are many more p. arquette fims featuring ms. arquette there, including all of the medium series. yayy! thank you, good buddy.... :)
 
Anybody here watching Vikings on the History Channel? It's streaming on their website, too. Pretty cool series, but I like viking and gladiator type movies and history... medieval type stuff, too. Sort of the bizzaro world Downton Abby, lol.
 
When I was on History's site yesterday they had the second episode for viewing already. I found that odd, since it wasn't on TV yet. Not HD though, so I'm holding out for Sunday.
 
yeah, they advertised that the next episode was available online right at the end of the premier episode. i wonder if they'll do that every week?

have you been watching showtime's historical soft porn drama "spartacus: war of the damned"?
 
No, I don't get Showtime anymore. The other Spartacus series never really caught my attention for some reason.
There's only one Spartacus... and I am... ;)

Thank you for reminding me that I have so much of her work to see.

She's a wonderful actress and so classy in real life. By all appearances she lives a good normal life unsullied by scandal and misbehavior.

Her sister Rosanna is quite good too.

Her most memorable performance for me was her portrayal of the girlfriend of Gary Gilmore in the screenplay adaption of The Executioners Song by, Norman Mailer.

The book and movie were very dark but both very good IMO.

This is mostly for you men. Have any of you watched North Woods on Animal Planet? It is about the Game Wardens in Maine and the hunters. It is really interesting. Looking for lost hunters at night, illegal shooting of animals, poaching, etc. Everything you can imagine happening in the woods in the summer with visitors and winter. Coming from a woman's point of view, very much worth watching. :angel:

rosanna, oh yes! the arquettes are a remarkably gifted family of artists. off-center in a wonderful sort of way. remember rosanna in desperately seeking susan, also in the 1980s? she even made madonna look good in that movie--madonna who looks good in other arenas, but not generally in films where acting is required. i will look up the executioner's song. i'm not for a lot of visual violence in movies, but i do nonetheless have a penchant for blue films and serious drama.
jeff, how do i look up 'filmography' or body of works for other actors or artists?

As I remember it the only violent scenes in the movie were the murders (2) and I don't remember these scenes as being particularly graphic.

I don't like gratuitous violence in films either (I'll never watch another Quentin Tarantino movie, the guy is seriously disturbed) but the violence in The Executioners Song while disturbing is brief and pertinent to the story.

That sounds interesting Addie. I don't have cable but I'll check that show out at mom's if she's interested.

Speaking of "Northern", remember Northern Exposure?

That was a really good show.

I am so glad I found this show. These men do an outstanding job.
