      <![CDATA[yeah, going back to Momma's Man, I should add this movie won the Off Camera Indie Film Fest in Krakow last year, over Lance Hammer's Ballast among others.  I got to ask Azazel a few questions in the post screening qna, genuine nice humble funny guy.

      <![CDATA[Beyond the sadistic schadenfraude I feel for those who saw the film to see the handsome "Titanic" couple reunited, and the sheer excess of Johnny Walker Red and cigarettes, yes, the film is useless. Seeing "Bigger Than Life," a film so alive and acute, this morning particularly put things into perspective. Not that it needed to, as "Revolutionary Road" may be eager to depress it's audience, but not before indicting--and then congratulating--all of its puerile characters and its exhausted audience.

      <![CDATA[I remember that scene -- and liked that movie, you're right that it sorta prefigured the national mood, especially among young people finding it difficult to get a toehold in the professional (adult) world. I read it a bit differently, I guess I thought he was desperate enough to want to do something -- like hurt himself falling down the stairs -- but barely active enough to follow through on it, so eventually it was this stifled cough of a grand gesture. Good movie, you should all see it.

      <![CDATA[Nice.  My single worst scene of the year, with a spoiler warning, was in Azazel Jacob's "Momma's Man", when the guy does the dive down the stairs in the suicide attempt.  Just took me out of the world of the movie, you know, that moment in the movie when you say to yourself this is bullshit?  Otherwise good movie, and I think that theme should be explored more, the theme of parent - child relationship as everyone is getting older and sadder and depressed.
