The trailer for The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford has been released. I wondered before if they were going for a Legends of the Fall vibe with it and that (or Unforgiven maybe) seems to have been accurate.
David Woodbury is looking into books about Jesse's life and reports his preliminary research into which might be the best ones. I'll look forward to his eventual reviews of them.
Horror
Oh, mama!
I know at least one person reading this will be glad to know that the BBC mini-series Jekyll will be available on DVD next month. The rest of you should too though.
Science Fiction
If I'd ever known that George Lucas had once approached David Lynch about directing Return of the Jedi, I'd forgotten it. Man, what if Lynch had said, "Yes?" I'm trying to decide if that would've increased my chances of still liking the movie today.
Comics
Browsing Stupid Comics is a great way to kill a couple of hours. (Found via Tom Spurgeon.)
Artist du Jour
Pascal Campion. Further proof that Charles Raymond (from whom I've discovered three great artists in about as many days) and I have really similar tastes in art.

Am I the one who would be glad about the Jekyll release???
Because I know I am.
Heh! I was thinking of my friend Jody, because he and I were just talking about how he wanted to get it when it came out, but I'm glad you are too. :D
