Needless to say, because you are reading it on Other Crap, somebody leaked the plan itself.

Or maybe that was his plan all along. Maybe he only told one guy that he had a top secret plan, knowing that if it leaked, that guy had to be a leaker. Oh, man, my head hurts more than that episode when Kirk tricked Mudd’s robots.

This performance is the stuff of legends. Beart was naked for almost two hours of screen time. Unfortunately, it is a four-hour movie, and the other two hours are as dull as a Bob Dole speech. Even Terrence Malick and Tarkovsky would be falling asleep at the slow pacing of this one. Come to think of it, the two hours with naked Beart are also dull, but you don’t notice it as much.

To be fair, the arty set loves this flick. The great Kurosawa, for example, counted it as a favorite, and said he wished he had made it! Both Tuna and I reviewed it decades ago, and suffice it to say we respectfully thought the great Kurosawa was full of it.

Interesting sidebar: the film was not lensed in widescreen, but in TV aspect ratio (4:3)!

It is with a very heavy heart that I inform you that my beautiful wife Kelly has lost her two-year battle with breast cancer. She fought a courageous fight with the love and support of so many. My family and I will forever be grateful to her doctors and nurses at MD Anderson Cancer Center, all the medical centers that have helped, as well as her many friends and loved ones who have been by her side. Kelly’s love and life will always be remembered. I will be taking some time to be there for my children who have lost their mother, so forgive me in advance if you don’t hear from us for a while. But please know that I will feel your outpouring of love in the weeks and months ahead as we heal. All my love, JT
