This week’s MSN DVD column is up, exploring the tenuous connection between Amour and Rapture Palooza — which is to say, they don’t really have one, but I needed a bridge.
Also, here’s a necessarily quick look at the legacy of Elmore Leonard. I overwrote. John would have nailed it, of course.
FYI, Get Shorty was adapted by Barry Sonnenfeld, not Barry Levinson.
God DAMMIT. Of course it was. Fixing now.
I was almost inclined to say that it might have been a more interesting movie had it been adapated by Barry Levinson, but then I looked over the last 20 years of Levinson’s movies and realized that the project was probably screwed in either case.
