Tuesday, October 24, 2006 Eat Your Heart Out Okay movie lovers, here are the films that showed up at my house today: David Mamet's latest film Edmond (2005), starring William H. Macy, Mena Suvari, Bokeem Woodbine, and Julia Stiles. Mamet directed or wrote these great films: Spartan, Heist, Hannibal, State and Main, Ronin, and Wag the Dog, to name a few. Robert Altmann's A Prairie Home Companion, starring Garrison Keiller, Woody Harrelson, Tommy Lee Jones, Meryl Streep, Lily Tomlin, John C. Reilly, Kevin Kline, Virginia Madsen, Maya Rudolph, and Lindsey Lohan.  Michael Haneke's Cache (Hidden) (2005) (France) was recognized by both the Chicago Film Critics and Los Angeles Film Critics Associations as the best foreign film of 2005. It is a story about a couple who are terrorized from threatening videotapes that begin showing up on their doorstep. What do you think?  An all-nighter? 7:08:08 PM   | COMMENT [] | HOME READ MY MiPOESIAS COLUMN: "WHEN THE MUSES COME TO VISIT."
