Happy 47th birthday to Lambert Wilson who specializes in Eurotrash villainy (The Matrix, Catwoman, etc...)

This day marks the early death of Lenny Bruce. I have never seen the Fosse biopic on his life but given all its Oscar nominations maybe I should?

Unrelated to the movies but Barack Obama turns 44 today. Don't you love him?

Moving over to the movie world today is Billy Bob Thornton's 50th birthday. I still have still never seen Slingblade.

24 years ago two time Oscar winner Melvyn Douglas passed away. He's one of the most Oscared people about whom I am still largely ignorant.

And 130 years back Hans Christian Andersen passed away. This storyteller has been portrayed in movies a few times, most famously perhaps in the Danny Kaye biopic from 1952

Happy 70th to cinematographer Michael Ballhaus who still has no Oscar (grumble) despite statue worthy work on The Fabulous Baker Boys

August 5th is also a day where the cinema lost 3 greats: Richard Burton, Marilyn Monroe, and Alec Guiness


Opening today:
Wong Kar Wai's 2046 finally arrives. I am so there !
