    Variety was subscription-based for years, like WWD. Not sure when they switched to free, but it wasn't all that long ago.

    The definition of "potboiler" is: "a poor quality novel or other creative work that was created quickly to make money to pay for the creator's daily expenses." O'Neill spent the better part of a decade writing Netherland and won the PEN/Faulkner Award. Hardly done quickly or of poor quality.

    I really hope Justin Timberlake does the theme song for the new Lee/DeNiro show. "Take it on down to Alphaville!"

    Sounds like "The Wire: NYC" which would be in line with Showtime making low rent versions of HBO fare.

    @Airvault: Technically speaking, I always thought life in Godard’s Alphaville wasn’t that bad. I mean, a dystopian future filled with lots of cute French chicks helping you out can’t be that oppressive?

    The vast majority of Spike Lee films have not really been any more or less controversial than any other modern auteur-type films. People base their opinions on "Do The Right Thing" without looking at his entire body of work.

    "Recalled the rascally O'Reilly:" is a sentence that is seriously harshing my mellow. It's like a disabled puppy who speaks New York Post trying to leap over a fence. And failing. =(

    Sometime around 2003, I was washing up
    and just about to leave the men's restroom in the cinema at the Pentagon City Mall, when I noticed a line had formed in the bathroom that extended all the way out into the lobby, consisting of fifty people or so. Just as I was musing on being part of a demographic consisting of white males 25-50 as I left, a black guy in the lobby bravely addressed the line saying, "What ch'yall doin'? Votin' for Bush?

    That for me, was a perfect moment.

    Later, rolling around on Billo's waterbed [Billo in rubber lederhosen]:

    Spike: Nothin' there... how bout here? No? How bout... here?

    Biillo: Hee hee, Spike baby, go easy. Papa Bear wants you to leave some for Stephen who's coming over later to discuss health care.
