Surprised that they didn't mention how the protagonist of Whistle and I'll Come to You spent half the scenes just eating.

just LISTENING to Cecil and Not Cecil talk about the plot of The Sixth Sense makes me feel teary-eyed. I don't know if I'm ready to cry yet but I'm definately bookmarking this movie to watch for later.

The movie is a commentary on the mistreatment of "abnormal" looking people, not "Queer" people. Why is everything about sexuality/race with you guys. Saying, "White, straight people, am I right?" isn't as insightful as you treat it as, especially coming from 2 white dudes (even if Cecil is gay)

typical one of the movies I really want to hear them talk about, and it won't even play or download.

Y'all need a woman on this show if you want to talk about how well a film represents gender issues. Or just want women to enjoy the show. Ideally someone knowledgeable about film.

In 96 you could still cross the Mexican and Canadian border with just a drivers license (~government issued photo id)

I really think you're being far too sympathetic to this main character. It's a brilliant depiction of an awful husband and an awful man, and it's a shame to hear you defending him as an ultimately good guy. Also, the problem with the line about Catholics and Protestants is that the situation in Ireland *isn't* a religious issue but one of colonialism. That's why Gal is mad about it. Not because he's obsessed with the schisms of white Christians.

I love the idea that the whole movie is a fastasy/delusion of Jay. It’s the only logical explanation for the frankly nonsensical ending.

I watched this film once and found the plot nonsensical, no tension at all, and really boring.
