Missing him - - have you seen this movie?



Director William Friedkin's (R.I.P.)    "Bug"

Just start watching it; do not read anything about it




Bug (2006) [DVD]


Every movie I've seen that Friedkin directed has been great to me

    Nope, no way, no how. I did read about it a while back (I really, really like Harry Connick, Jr., so it piqued my interest when I saw it listed on Netflix or Hulu or whatever). I immediately knew just from the description that watching it would be pure idiocy (for me). I don't need that kind of 'disturbing'! I'm disturbed enough! ;) 

    I did like Harry very much in the movie 'Copycat'. And it stars Dermot Mulroney, too... another fave of mine. I like suspense, but nothing too disturbing.

    I get it. :)

    Harry is very good in the movie to me.  :)

    Everyone in the movie I found good.
    Ashley Judd blew me away.

    I saw the movie at a matinee showing and I ended up being the only person in the entire  theater.  A great unusual experience for me. It was an unusual kind of disturbing movie. Excellent for me, too.

    For me, Harry is one of those celebrities who just exudes goodness and talent. 

    I have thought about the Judd sisters more than once since their mother's death. I can't imagine having to endure public scrutiny and criticism while dealing with such a loss.

    Wow!

    I knew nothing of the movie before planning to see it. I only knew Friedkin directed it and that is why I wanted to see it. Amazing, amazing, amazing powerful movie for me.
    And I like having seen it in a big empty (other than me) theater.
