| The strange and sad case of Samuel Byck was the subject of the 2004 film The Assassination of Richard Nixon (two asses, get it?) and the source of last week's quiz. Not many people championed the film (Filmbrain did), and its success was rather short lived, which is a shame for it was easily one of Sean Penn's greatest performances, and one of the strongest American directorial debuts in years. As for the connection to Oliver Stone's Nixon, well....... For this week's quiz we say farewell to Nixonian Washington and hello to Ms. Jessica Lange. But it what film can you find a cheesecake photo such as this, and what possible connection could it have to a film about a would-be assassin? Submit your answers to this address. Good luck! |

Did you know you're mentioned in the 2006 Time Out Film Guide (under the "blogs" heading, natch)?

First I'm hearing of it! "Amusing musings..." -- yes, that's about right.
Thanks for passing the word on, Tuwa.
