Stigmata - what a bad movie
I came home from a faaaaaaaaaabulous night out with Billy (who is a London friend of mine, and who will be in NYC for one day before moving on to Norwalk, Connecticut), to turn on the TV and find Stigmata on. The movie came out in 1999 and I actually remember going to see it in the cinema with Mary Barbara, at Purdue. I found it completely and utterly awful at the ripe old age of 21, just like I find it completely and utterly awful now. My prevailing memory of this movie (the plot escapes me) is that it was cut like a music video and made me dizzy.
When it came on this evening, I decided to IMDB it and find out if the director managed to ever direct anything after it (the answer, as it were, is 'not much'), and I realized that before he directed this movie, the director directed... music videos.
Good call, 21 year old Beth.
In other news: I still haven't seen the new Batman movie. This is now a tomorrow priority. Also: must procure IMAX tickets to it, too. I've heard that's amazing. So looking forward to it.

Thatmovie had so much potential, and I loved the Aramaeic font.
But you're right...what a sucky movie.
I love that you're commenting on the font. Sam, why have we not hung out in eight years? It's so sad.

I remember seeing that in the theater. REALLY bad idea. Sort of like when I saw 'Wanted' last week.
