Deux ou trois choses que je sais d'elle Jean-Luc Godard, 1966 Saw this one again at the Cinematheque last week. Prostitution is a constantly recurring theme in the oeuvre of Godard and is the central topic of this film. The beautiful actress Marina Vlady plays a housewife living in the bleak...

The Mayflower Madam Saw it the other day. Early 80's TV movie with Candice Bergin as Sydney Biddle Barrows, based on the latter's book recounting her experience as the owner of a top NYC escort agency. Sympathetic portrayal of Barrows, mostly believable. Her socially prominent family had seen...

if use of the veto is the barometer of a president's competence, then Reagan is by far the worst since 1960 with 78 vetoes. The number of Reagan vetoes that were overridden by congress is more than double the total number of vetoes used by Obama

The final lines of Some Like it Hot: Well, nobody's perfect

Best to put aside some of the irrelevant distractions that have been posted on this thread over the last 18 hours and get down to serious matters. Over the last couple of weeks, I have had first time encounters with Nelly, Neva, and Megan. Superb ladies all of them! Of course there are many...

i must say, this thread has made for some interesting reading. Many of the posts are thoughful and interesting, and I have learnt a thing or two about the subject. However, it is also interesting from a sociological viewpoint, in terms of some of the reactions it has provoked among some people...
