As I was contemplating a boxed set of Cassavetes Films.....an ordinarily supercilious acquaintance, locked into festive X'mas mode, 'recommended' that I abandon what he considers my 'high-mindedness' and consider some much lighter cinematic....dare I even use this word in this context......fare.....just the fake Duchenne smile on his 'recommended' entertainment 'boxed set' is enough to make me vomit up my breakfast and look for a Criterion Edition Box of Kathryn Bigelow/Nagisa Ôshima collaboratives, all singing...all dancing....'light' entertainment.....But, since this would/did NEVER happen, I'll 'go' for the compromise of 'Terry Gilliam's Greatest Hits'! o.k. everybody happy with that? I'm still grieving the cancellation of Hannibal and tossing a metal-toed combat boot at a screenful of NBA combat sports that edged it from Primetime to yesterday's news......."Mondo" is what most folks really, really like.....more 'guilty pleasures'......
