Caltrops - Peter Molyneux's The Movies





	[quote name="Jeff Fries"][quote name="Ray of Light"] Lucky for you, the film came out before Ebert went insane. He'd be happy to <a href=http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20010405/REVIEWS08/104050301/1023>elaborate</a>.[/quote] [quote name="Bud Melman"]Marge Gunderson is one of a handful of characters whose names remain in our memories, like Travis Bickle, Tony Manero, HAL 9000, Fred C. Dobbs.[/quote] The pregnant cop Marge something in Fargo is in the same league of memorability as HAL 9000? No one would be disappointed if both Ebert and Siskel hadn't insisted <i>Fargo</i> is one of the greatest films ever made, rather than being maybe a notch below <i>Reservoir Dogs</i>. It's forgivable for Siskel who had the kind of brain cancer that leads a person to insist on national television that James Woods be awarded an Oscar for his role in <i>Vampires</i>, but Ebert didn't get his cancer until much later, and even then it was just the regular non-insanity-explaining thyroid kind. I love his reviews but I never understood his fascination with that film.[/quote]
