Ok...
I quit posting because of what I consider PC over-moderation on RAT but I cant pass up on posting: The Ultimate Review of the 300! This was overheard in a loud cell phone conversation in a local video store. I should note the speaker was wearing black pleated pants, a deep red leather shirt , white suspenders and tie, a fedora and one large loop ear ring. As I can recall:
"... so I was with [friend] in [unfamiliar named club] in Santa Fe. We said 'We know you guys!' They said they were some extras in that 300 something movie. And they were hot! And I mean Hot! That movie. It was about some tribe. About a hundred years ago. Somebody started some issue with them, but they all got pushed off a cliff. We are all going to see it, but I heard it was very violent."
The rest of the conversation centered on the subject being (wrongly) arrested for DWI and driving on a suspended (now revoked) license in a car borrowed without the owner's permission. There was the ritual denunciation of the police, etc, and how the owner was not happy when he found out his car had been impounded.
The speaker then drove off in a BMW with a person wearing a white double breasted suit without a shirt or tie. I should note Albuquerque is jeans and sneakers town. I cannot attest for the veracity of the speaker's story, but Santa Fe does attract a sizable Hollywood crowd. So those above noted were film critics, I suppose.
Best review so far, IMHO.
