We saw the trailer for the Natalie Portman-Jake Gyllenhaal "Brothers." OMG, it looks like the most melodramatic, exploitative piece of crap! Maybe the actual movie will somehow turn out to be sensitive, but there's nothing subtle about the trailer.
Fantastic Column, Kirby!! How can one man compile so much fabulousness???
