Notice how editing was the biggest enhancement for her Oscar-winning role, and notice how that film is pretty much the only defense anyone has for her credibility.<BR/><BR/>Give me Denise Richards any day over Berry!

Viva Obama and the New Sincerity! Change may not come in the form of dried-over Clintonistas, but I suspect it will arrive inadvertently at any rate).Joel Bockohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11238338958380683893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30487573.post-92003813172864768832008-11-20T09:40:00.000-05:002008-11-20T09:40:00.000-05:00Thanks for your interesting comments, Movieman. Yo...Thanks for your interesting comments, Movieman. You raise an interesting point about the ravages of time on post-history. What it shows, perhaps, is that archness has a shelf-life. "The New Sincerity" is emerging, and just as one era becomes campy and painful, another seems suddenly relevant and revealing. Right now I'd say that era is the early 1960s... "We Can Overcome" and "High Hopes" tempered by the always possible threat of conspiracy-paid snipers.Erich Kuerstenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02850572368098319317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30487573.post-21295813774587596852008-11-20T08:11:00.000-05:002008-11-20T08:11:00.000-05:00Priceless review, or recap, or whatever it is. Whe...Priceless review, or recap, or whatever it is. When exactly DID the 90s become dated? All I know is that a few years ago, I thought it was still too soon for VH1's "I Love the 90s" but now I can suddenly recognize, like you, just how dated even the late 90s feel.<BR/><BR/>Having been too young to experience the 80s AS the 80s, this is the first decade (unless you count the differently-vibed early 90s) that I've seen slip into "datedness" so it's a little spooky. Plus, the 90s were so post-history it seemed like they existed in a kind of vacuum, immune from the ravages of time. Guess not.Joel Bockohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11238338958380683893noreply@blogger.com
