totally understandable, that movie is weird, I can't tell if I like it or not but it's definitely weird. Plus seeing Jeff Bridges (is this his name?) all the time doesn't make it easier to watch it.

These caricatures are almost three-dimensional, though, compared with the female roles (Valerie Perrine's aging stripper, Lauren Graham's ex-Playboy bunny), which are about as thankless as they are in traditional pornography.
Ouch--but I have to agreeThey don't really get much to do--or say

Thanks for the links Nadine!

Thanks for those Nadine.

I know Lauren's and the other female parts were limited but this move was not about them so I understand.

I can't wait for her new work to come out and I just hope one day she gets a chance to be the lead in a movie, no mater how small. Wich might be a good thing, just look at how many Oscars have been one by small indy films.

Lauren was adorable and for the limited time on screen played the part of a 'I had to do it to survive' playboy bunny very well.

I wonder if they shoot those photos, you know for Lauren to get into character better

Really? I did actually enjoy the movie. after seeing the whole movie. I didn't wanna watch the movie after seeing the lauren scenes too, cause the movie didn't seem like something too intresting. But well I actually did enjoy it.

The whole movie is better than just watching the LG parts. Ted Danson was v. good in it.

That's a so-so taking, but considering it's been on the shelf that long, I didn't think it'd even reach a $4,000 average.

Thanks Nadine, I want to give the movie a try 'cause I've heard good things about it. It's still not playing near me, so I guess I have to go to LA which might take a couple days since I'm sooooo busy....who knows, maybe by then it'll be in my area
