I really, really tried.

I tried. I tried to watch this movie. With 355 left I try and either stick through it, or not waste my time.

I came across a movie called "Run! Bitch Run!" I got 6min28sec into it before I had to just jump ship.

First, the title doest make a lick of sence. So, run. And is it a place or road called "Bitch run"? Shouldnt it be "Run, Bitch! Run" ? More less telling the bitch to run?

The 6 minuits I watched had 3 separate topless women with 3 diffrent guys. All in the same house or something. Then one of the (for sake of argument) bitches freaks out after her john calls her a whore. So she stabs the tubby bastard, and her pimp (more like a kid rock wanna be) runs to dispose of the body.

Thats as far as I could take it. I have seen "Gigli" followed by "From Justin to Kelly", and I ware that as a badge of shame. And I couldnt get through "Run! Bitch Run!"


Day 9: "Lenny" Experiment in Dusty

Lenny Bruce was the first smart, edgy comic. From working as an MC in burlesque shows to top bill at some of the best clubs in america to  being a pioneer for the first amendment.

Now, as all good burlesque MC's, drugs and easy women were the norm. Having both in his life did not make his journey easy. From a drug addicted wife to booting heroin before a show.

Dustin Hoffman plays Lenny, damn near perfect. I have been a fan of Lenny for the past 10 years. I LOVED Dustin's performance.

The movie is directed by Bob Fosse, director of "All that Jazz" and "Cabaret". He knew what he was doing when he made "Lenny". It starts slow and a little like a soft core porn (there a lot of boobs and sex) and Dustin's performance really pulls you in. Half way in you are hooked.

With my Ratings system I Liked this movie and I recommend it, although it is not for everyone.
3 stars of 5.
