2. Never seen it but I want to see that documentary on the guy...

..who wrote and directed it. Apparently he burned his bridges with the guys he was working with, and they were filming a documentary on the making of the movie and his deal with Miramax and it all apparently portrays the guy in an unflattering light. It sounds compelling.

4. Love it.....

Willem Dafoe is excellent in that film. I ended up watching it upon recommendation from my English Teacher to do so.

11. Hehehe, Dafoe is one of my favorite actors anyway, hell

I even liked him as the Green Goblin :)

He's always just weird enough to make you say :wtf: but in drag, he was 10 times as weird, and that flies right off the weird scale :)
