WEEDS mid-season review.

Nancy Botwin is in over her head more than ever this season. Her boyfriend is only keeping her alive because she's pregnant with his offspring. She told the FBI about his smuggling of drugs/people through tunnels and that ruined any trust the once head. Shane (15) is beating up his teacher and using a gun. Her oldest son is opening his own medical marijuana center. Andy is finally growing up and not letting Nancy do everything for him. This season has brought back the comedy that the show lost last season. Kevin Nealon and Elizabeth Perkins are brining the laughs in full force this season. The season has added Nancy's sister played by Jennifer Jason Leigh with great angst and humor. This seasons' every episode feels like Nancy could die at any moment. It would be terrible if they killed the most lovable drug dealing mom in Television history. If you stopped watching last season, please start up again with the most enjoyable episodes of 'Weeds' since season 2. Nancy has lost control of everyone around her and it's great watching her struggle. "Weeds" can be seen on Showtime, Monday's at 10pm followed by the very fresh show "Nurse Jackie."

BRUNO Review

Sacha Baron Cohen film reveals that there is no limit to his dedication to shock. The film is less about making fun of homosexuals and more about pointing out the intolerances of others. Bruno is more in your face than Cohen's 'Borat' character. The film doesn't have the funny sidekick of his last movie but unlike 'Borat', 'Bruno' doesn't need one. 'Bruno' is only 82 minutes but it doesn't have a moment without something hilariously offensive happening on screen. It's very funny and you've seen a lot in the trailer, but you have no idea about how graphic the film really is.
'Borat' was more family friendly and 'Bruno' is more for an age group of 20-40 that is very open to sexual humor. The adoption of an African American baby is one of the movies' least shocking moments. Without giving anything away 'Bruno' is hilarious and moves very quickly through it's scenes. A particular scene during the focus groups stint is perhaps what will stay with you after it's over. Larry Charles (Seinfeld, Borat) does a great job of not staying too long on any one scene. 'Bruno' might not be as funny as 'Borat' but definitely stands alone as a great comedy. With the past month being the one of the worst summer months in years, 'Bruno' is worth the price of admission. Check it out and appreciate the sacrifices Cohen makes to keep you laughing.

Coeur De Pirate - Fondu Au Noir

I came across this song while scanning hundreds of songs over the weekend. I don't speak French but there is something haunting about the opening and closing piano. I have a 'French for Dummies' book and want to learn just so I can fully understand the meaning of this song. Please give it a listen and enjoy this beautifully tragic tune.

Invention of Lying Trailer

One of the smartest comedic scripts in years is finally coming out this fall. From a screenplay written by Ricky Gervais comes a great premise, centered around a world where everyone tells the truth and one loser discovers the act of lying. The all-star cast includes Jennifer Garner, Tina Fey, Louis C.K., Rob Lowe and Jonah Hill. The original title was "The Other Side of the Truth," I prefer the original title but studios always have their ways. Check out the trailer and post some feedback.
