So, I spoke to someday today who attended the screening last night, she said director Jaco Van Dormael was there, he did a Q&A for the film etc. She said he expressed his gratitude for the audience and was really happy to be screening the film in America (this was probably it's only US public screen...

No word that he'll be there, but Jared's film Mr. Nobody is screening Saturday night (7/25/11) at the Disney Concert Hall as part of the 2011 LA Film Festival, under the category of "Overlooked Films". I'll be working a different venue that night and won't be able to make it, but maybe this is the e...

Interesting possibility, but I don't know that I agree with it. I think Angela just doubts that Jordan would ever want Rayanne in his band, which turns out to be true. She's seen how he shuts down around Rayanne, and he's only just kicked them out of his car. To me, Angela seems uncomfortable trying...

Wow, that's so funny. Good eye! I remember the original poster, but I definitely never noticed its transformation. I can't decide if I think it was Rayanne... Rayanne does not smoke. But she does take pleasure in subverting convention and societal, mandates.

Hi Mutajon, Welcome to the forum :D Amazon sells a cd called Music by W.G. Snuffy Walden, which features at least one song from MSCL, maybe more, but also a lot of his other work as well (cue West Wing tile music now...). I'm not sure that you'll be able to find anything better than that. It looks l...

And yes, I didn't mean that Graham is more like Jordan than he is like Brian, I was just saying that he isn't exactly on the Brian side of the Brian-Jordan spectrum.. I totally got that. Hm, apparently I'm forgetting what exactly Tony Poole was like. I think there was an episode where Patty was tel...

Yea, I totally don't dislike the scene. I like what it says about Jordan -- that he recognizes in himself his tendency to be cynical, or at least flippant, and that that's not who he wants to be, so he's open enough to give something new a try. (Wow, that sounds a lot like his relationship with Ange...

But I'm not sure about Patty either-- I'm not anti-Patti at all, to an extent because I'm like her in some ways, but I think we kind of get a lot of her inner world anyway. I actually agree with this; I was thinking about that when I wrote her name. I'm really not sure that we would learn anything ...

Probably no big surprise here, I want an episode narrated by Graham Chase! For a long time I was really anti a Catalano voiceover. I really don't think that it ever would have happened on the show, as they tried so hard to keep him elusive. I now think that my being opposed to it was my inner teen b...

I think even Graham and Patty think they didn't initially handle it well. I think you got it exactly right -- I think that it had a lot to do with Rickie being a guy. Patty's first thought wasn't that it was a case of domestic abuse, but that RIckie was "in some kind of trouble". They would not have...

Oooh I love Mandy Patinkin! Looks good. It might take me a couple episodes to see Claire Danes as the character rather than herself. I like how emphatic she is though.

MSCL now on Netflix 'Watch Instantly'

* They've listed episode 16 as "Reservations" instead of "Resolutions"

Dear Lemon Lima opened last weekend in Culver City, and will open somewhere in New York this weekend. Also, it's also available on On Demand, Fios, Warner, and all the others. I hope people fall in love with this beautiful little film! http://thefilmstage.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/DearLemonLim...

I watched 15 min of the British Skins and could barely stand it, let alone understand why people compare it to MSCL. But I guess this isn't the first show that takes more than 15 min to get into :) I'd say other than the fact that both shows feature characters under the age of 21, they don't really...

From an article reviewing MTV'S remake of Skins: It's the sensitivity scenes that get tough on the stomach — in every episode, you can tell when the jaded party kids are about to drop their facades and reveal how scared and lonely they feel on the inside. "Nobody understands me!" "It's all so fake!"...
