I like a woman with a big vocabulary and every single little comma in place

topaz7 wins everything in the world for this icon. It made my decade, at least.

Also, melpemone, much with the yay, for everything worked (including my DL manager)! All is good. So good, in fact that I wrote a review on IMDB (which hasn't showed up yet). I can't imagine they won't approve it, since the last review was posted three years ago, and most of the reviews on the site suck. *g*

I love Maury Chaykin thiiiiis much, even when he's all psychopathic and evil. I could go on and on and on about how much I loved this film. Loved, as in the same way I loved Silence of the Lambs, but still, OMG, yes.

ETA: My review is up! I think this is the direct link. The ones in the comments aren't, I find. Alas, earwaxI'm so psyched, I feel like a published author. *g*

Better yet, put me in a room with all three. Hell, throw in Gus and Alex as well.



Please.

Interesting point about Patrick in prison. I wonder if she did visit him at all, because certainly he appeared to have some emotional hold over her if nothing else. It's an interesting story, and it would be fascinating to learn the truth, however we will never know it for sure. I think the film brings across a lot of points incredibly well though.

Who knows, the real Patrick Kelly might be as innocent as a lamb. *shrugs* He says he is.

I think they would make my brain hurt. Although five more different people there never were.

*gets all meta* Gus and Fraser would hit it off immediately. Chris and Alex might get along fine. Chris would think Fraser and Geoffrey were completely nuts. Geoffrey would think he was completely nuts for seeing all these people who (sort of) look like him.

Geoffrey: Why the hell would my psyche make me a Mountie?

Fraser: It's interesting that you should entertain such a hypothesis, Mr. Tennant. I'm reminded of Jung's concept of the Shadow, which is often construed to be the negative part of ourselves which we repress and deny; however, Jung himself said that the Shadow is made up of the rejected aspects of our conscious mind, which lends itself to the possibility that there could also be positive aspects as well, even if those aspects are considered aberrant by the conscious mind. Perhaps there are attributes of an RCMP officer that are frightening or distasteful to you. Of course, if my theory pans out it would thereby make me an aspect of you, in which case you might be my shadow self. *pauses, thinks* Oh, dear.

Geoffrey: *grins, eyes darting around the room* Oh. Right. *points at Fraser, laughs with barely controlled hysteria* Did Oliver put you up to this?

Hee!

Alex: *plays with his hat a little* I....agree... Y'all... nuts.

Chris: Fuck. What the fuck am I doing here?

Gus: I don't know. Want any fish-cakes?



Meta for a moment: I think Alex and Fraser would hit it off fine and spend all their time talking about horses and the prairies. Chris would like Gus due to the drinking and the small-town aspect of their lives, and Geoffrey would sit in the corner alone, muttering to himself, until Gus gave him something deeply alcoholic.

[primroseburrows.livejournal.com]

Poor Geoffrey. I don't know if he'd be muttering on the outside, but inside he'd be pretty bad off. Until the alcohol, at least. And don't tell Fraser, but Geoffrey's better off with Gus than with him because Fraser takes things too seriously, and that is not what Geoffrey needs. *pets him*

Fraser and Gus both have a philosophical side, so they'd do fine. And as soon as Fraser found out that Chris was a curler, he'd corner him, which would be fine with Chris because curling is SUCH an exciting thing to talk about. At least to Chris.

And where the heck is Buddy French? Was he on vacation and missed the dimentional portal?

[bjohan57.livejournal.com]

Oooh heck, I had forgotten about Buddy.

He'll get on with Gus, being from South Shore, Nova Scotia and all, and then he can share policing tips with Fraser, which Fraser will LOVE and will make Buddy feel even more inferior, so he'll then talk to Chris to make himself feel better. Chris will get him drunk, talk about throwing rocks down some ice and he'll realise that his life isn't quite as crappy as he once thought. He may also pitch into Geoffrey - they can depress each other.

Fraser will get on with Gus as well, what with the whole Russian speaking thing and their mutual experience with nuclear submarines and ghost ship legends.
