  What's your favorite quote from Ghostbusters?

  0 0 Sigourney Weaver: (with a smile) You know, you don't act like a scientist at all. Bill Murray: No? Sigourney Weaver: No. (the smile vanishes, she's the Ice Queen) More like a game show host. Roscoe answered in Film 11 months ago Answer, comment & read 10 more answers »

  What do you think about the film Eraserhead?

  1 1 As time passes, and Lynch degenerates into a purveyor of bullshit puzzle flicks like MULHOLLAND DR. and INLAND EMPIRE, I'm finding ERASERHEAD to be his one really essential movie, the one that never gets stale. My interpretation is pretty basic, that Henry overcomes the lusts/distractions of the flesh/world and goes to heaven, where everything will be fine.

  Classic kids' books that you read and remember from childhood. What's your fav?

  2 0 THE PHANTOM TOLLBOOTH by Norton Juster, with Jules Feiffer's brilliant illustrations. Just exactly the kind of book to give to an imaginative and bored sixth grader to get him out of his funk at how boring school is. I'm very lucky to have been given it to read by the world's greatest sixth grade teacher, the divine Diane Ridgley (God bless and keep you wherever you are, dear lady).
