    3:30 p.m.  The Entertainer (1960).  Great cast in this one about a cheeseball music hall showman who is well past his sell-by date.  Laurence Oliver, Brenda de Banzie, Roger Livesey, Joan Plowright, Albert Finney and Alan Bates.

    This is a great film and Olivier in top form. I think I heard this was his favorite role of his as well.

    Ironic that Joan Plowright, who plays his daughter in here, went on to marry him in real life.

    Just finished Zodiac (again). This movie fascinates me. It's hard to believe they never caught him and there are so many opinions as to who he was, or is.  I've done quite a bit of research and while I think it was Arthur Leigh Allen, I'm not sure. There are complete web sites totally dedicated to this case. It's probably second only to the Kennedy assassination in terms of interest and wild theories.  The movie is really well done and follows Greysmith's book almost to the letter. It's a great study of how solving the mystery affected the three main characters .Robert  Greysmith, Paul Avery and Dave Toschi are brilliantly portrayed by Jake Gyllenhaal, Robert Downey Jr, and Mark Ruffalo.  I've always liked movies about serial killers and how detectives catch them after lengthy cat and mouse games. I guess I'm intrigued by this case because the "bad" guy got away with it.

    They never caught Jack the Ripper either. A lot of speculation on who he was or could have been, but it's never been proved one way or another.

    It will probably be the same with the Zodiac killer.

    LOL

    A little.

    BUT, I'll feel even BETTER when I see some of the folks around here acknowledge the validity of my little motorcycle movie analogy to this whole GWTW thing.

    (...and why I used it to press my point)

    I agree with what you said about EASY RIDER.

    Fonda and Hopper's characters (SPOILER ALERT) certainly did NOT deserve to be blown away like they were simply because they weren't part of the Establishment. Nor did George Hanson (Jack Nicholson) deserved to be beaten to death for absolutely no good reason.
