Red Rock West.

My running commentary during the movie (there be spoilers):

"Yay, modern noir.  Wow, Nicholas Cage is hairy.  OH MY GOD, J.T. Walsh is so YOUNG!  Why is it that Nicholas Cage is always in really good movies or really bad ones*?  Ah.  This is going to be one of those movies where Nicholas Cage just CAN'T WIN.  NICHOLAS CAGE, DON'T TRUST LARA FLYNN BOYLE!!  SHE'S LARA FLYNN BOYLE!!!  Oh, the classic overwrought Nicholas Cage yell.  Excellent... ACTING.  Dennis Hopper, I love you.  Are you going to team up with Nicholas Cage?  Erm... guess not.  Oh, man, that guy is totally screwed -- you can tell by his hair.  Ooo, I hope the smart cop doesn't die.  HOORAY!  The Nicholas Cage yell again!  Oh good lord, is Dennis Hopper still talking?  After THAT??  And... Jesus.  Well, if anyone would live through all that, I guess it'd be Dennis Hopper.  YES, DO IT, DO IT, NICHOLAS CAGE!  I HATE YOU LARA FLYNN BOYLE, YOU COW!!  OH MY GOD, THANK YOU!!  Oh, nice.  This song is by Dwight Yoak... OH MY GOD, THE TRUCK DRIVER WAS PLAYED BY DWIGHT YOAKAM!  I DIDN'T EVEN RECOGNIZE HIM!!  I LOVED THAT MOVIE.  We totally need it at the library."

And I don't even have an excuse -- that was all totally sober.  I'm all better now, so I can't even blame cold medicine.

I rarely admit it, but Josh is a saint.
