Just asking. Any opinions on the movie?......
I turned it off when it got to the scene of Matt Damon sodomizing Michael Douglas.
waiting for the first “What is HBO” comment....
I have no idea why michael douglas agreed to play a ghey guy. matt damon I get. douglas, not so much.
No cable, wouldn’t have watched it anyway.
Shame Michael wasted what’s left of his life to do a movie like this.
He did a fairly good job, but the movie I think wrecked Liberace’s legacy for his fans. But since most of his fans are probably way old and mostly passed on, it may not matter. Kinda like what “Mommy Dearest” did for Joan Crawford......
Did anyone watch it? I would not even consider it. Gag me with a spoon.
I don’t think they did Liberace any favors in this movie.......
That was the funniest part!.......
Couldn’t do it. The previews were creepy enough. I remember when my parents used to watch him on tv. He was really good and quite a showman. Everyone knew he was gay, but no one made a big deal out of it like nowadays or pried into his personal life. I remember my mother talking about other screen stars that were gay, but again, no one made a big deal about them and didn’t delve into their private lives.
I watched Courage New Hampshire last night.
Its running all week at 8 pm eastern (I think) on INSP.
Its a great show about the early struggles of the colonists in the years leading up to the revolution. Andrew Breitbart even has a cameo role.
The White Pine act is one we would recognize today. An oppressive government declared it illegal to cut pine trees larger than 1 foot in diameter because Britain wanted them for ship building. It made it pretty hard to farm in wilderness when they couldn’t clear forest.
Liberace, who hid his homosexuality, would be horrified to see it’s now a matter of a movie and a discussion.
and ‘what is HBO’ ?
ha, I was waiting for the “we got rid of our TV 20 years ago and couldn’t be happier”
I can’t imagine that brought bigger ratings for HBO than if they had showed a new episode of ‘Game of Thrones”.
My sentiments *exactly*!!
What!? Matt Damon is no longer sodomizing Ben Affleck? When did this happen?
‘what is HBO’?
Apparently it’s the Homosexual Broadcasting Organization.
At least he had enough class to not flaunt his homosexuality. My grandma looked forward to his show and always dressed up for it. She said “If we can see them, they can see us.” She dressed up for the televised wrestling “matches” too. Grandma was some gal!
And just to have another Game of Thrones reference here. In that show, they would have been calling Liberace a “sword swallower”.... I heard that on an episode of Game of Thrones a few weeks ago and couldn’t stop laughing...
