July Fare, by M

my "darn" hot summer list for july:
*snarf*

netflixed: six feet under (s3) (rainn wilson makes an appearance, eee! and though morbid the character development on this show is awesome though occasionally soulless), nashville 1975 (robert altman 'masterpiece'), grizzly man (i guess?), persepolis, the bostonians, holes.

will not miss: deadliest catch s3 (i cannot get enough of these guys bcs they're all guyish and on a boat and though not attractive damned appealing). i fought this show for 2 years. i'm fully onboard now. i suspect mike rowe is lulling me into a must watch trance.

will catch them on the day or on a repeat: monk, psych, kathy griffin, project runway (but rest assured i will NOT miss a single episode. but USA and BRAVO are masters at repeat or die institutions. so i'm not afraid.

i haven't heard of half the stuff on your netflixed list! but i do think you'll like holes. have you read the book yet? it's a good one.

Altman's masterpiece is The Long Goodbye, or maybe McCabe & Mrs. Miller.

But The Long Goodbye is lit so darkly, you have to see it on the big screen. I saw it at The Castro Theater in SF. Life changing.

Holes is fabulous. The cast is awesome. I watched about five minutes of Grizzly Man. Good luck with that one.
