TOD: Reading some of the other film titles DRs have offered, it makes me wonder just how jaded I was before I was out of high school!!!

I wasn't allowed to see "Tom Jones"! How do you like THEM apples. Only film I was ever "banned" from seeing, though.

I guess the film that rather shocked me the first time I saw it (being a bit out of the Hollywood mainstream, not to mention anything "I" knew) was "Midnight Cowboy". It wasn't a long-lasting or profound shock.

Outside of the language, "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf" wasn't as shocking as some folks made it out to be. Martha was a total pill, but that's part of her charm I guess.

Last night's "Glee" -- feh. I was rather looking forward to the battling divas doing "Defying Gravity". Who knew they could beat it to death being so reptitious with a couple of verses? Ugh.

I like the actors. The wheelchair number, though, was so-so. And there was certainly nothing I could see that any organization should get so het-up about over its depiction of wheelchair-bound people. It seemed rather sensitive, open and honest.

They cannot, of course, touch base on everything. But honestly, how many shows have EVER tried to raise that kind of awareness? And they got a few face-slaps for that?

This country is way over the top in PC consciousness. Bitchslaps all around to the protesters.

And the word of the day is: ASSEVERATE!

You know what they say about asseverating.

No. What do "they" say?

And whatever it is, I'm guessing "they" only say it because you're a lesbian.

I don't know if THX 1138 was considered controversial, or not, but when it showed on TV around 1973, during the daytime, and a naked boob appeared, well, I was shocked.

I liked parts a lot and disliked other parts. I loved how they showed rachel and kurt singing (i love when they go back and forth from one person to the other). I loved watching kurt and his dad, the whole gay story, and what kurt did. I liked sue. I liked wheelchair boy and asian girl. And even some of the wheelchair stuff.

but it seemed very weird to me not to show jayma mays at all. And i'm not digging much to do with the pregnancy story. Although why does quinn need to pay the bills? Isn't she giving the baby up to looney woman?

JMK · « **Reply #69 on:** November 12, 2009, 09:19:22 AM »

Not the movie versions, but two books that later became films raised my mother's ire: PORTNOY'S COMPLAINT which I got from Doubleday Book Club when I was probably 12. For some reason she was even more exercised (exorcised?) about ROSEMARY'S BABY, which she finally allowed me to read with the understanding that if I had any questions, I had to ask my father, LOL. The only question I had was the word "buttocks"--having learned to spell phonetically and all, I had thought that word was spelled "butex" due to the Utahn pronunciation I had grown up with.

DR elmore3003 - have you seen this?

Thank you, DR singdaw, I did not, and I just ordered it from amazon.co.uk; Britten's executor, Donald Mitchell, who's also a huge Mahler authority, and Mitchell's wife Kath are good friends. On my birthday in 1999, Donald gave me the newly published (in 1999) full score for Britten's version of THE BEGGAR's OPERA.

The plea bargain in the balloon case is a joke, if true. Not that I wish anyone jail time, because I don't, but they just serve probation - it's the reason: to keep the loving family together. Sorry, these people have instilled in their children the most warped sense of what family is and if that's loving and/or healthy then I don't know anything about family. So, let's see - they'll get probation. Fine. How long until they sell the story to some idiot, disgusting TV producer? And make a ton of money. Which is why they did it. Which is why the plea bargain should include the inability to exploit this crap in ANY manner at ANY time. That would be a proper sentence.

bk · « **Reply #78 on:** November 12, 2009, 09:33:31 AM »

And my guess is, if that WAS then sentence, the father would not agree and would rather do jail time.

Im sure I saw much more controversial films on TV beforehand, but my first movie theatre film of this type was probably Robert Altman's NASHVILLE.
