Thanks for the well-wishes everyone. Definitely the worst part of this is that I haven't been able to work or show my apartment, and I'm trying to move. But slowly, slowly recovering.

I'm sorry tiny. But it'll get better!!
I actually consider a lot of movies to be life-changing! I take them to my heart and they melt into my personality.

You wouldn't laugh at a a retarded child or a demented old man, and you shouldn't love at this poor soul.

I would, so would a lot of people, and a lot of comedians would craft jokes about them. All of life is funny, it's what helps make even the most heartbreaking things more heartbreaking and real.
Bill, I am trying to reconcile your view here on Charlie Sheen (and retarded child or demented old man) with your view that you found Notorious repugnant because of the abuse of a female (as you saw it). Where's the difference between the latter and the former?

In the case of Sheen, it's a guy just being himself. Maybe it will all end up being an act, but it's one man saying things that he wants to say and acting the way he wants to act. There's a master hand at play in Notorious, Hitchcock presents that relationship to us and wants us to like it, he pushes the abuse as lovely in some way. It's the hand of god factor that is the difference in my eyes.
Well explained Bill  :)
