I couldn't watch Sin City - left dh to it at the point where the dog starts...no I won't..er...spoil it for anyone who hasn't seen it
Well, I got a film from Blockbuster called West of Heaven, North of Hell (or South of Heaven, West of Hell, or...oh whatever) On the box it said Billy Bob Thornton and Bridget Fonda. Only when we started watching it, BBT was in it for about 5 minutes in a completely extraneous role, and it turned out to actually be a vehicle for...oh you'll laugh...Dwight Yoakam. Yup, the ugly, balding C&W singer (apologies to any fans, no, actually, no apologies - you're deranged). He wrote it, wrote the screenplay, wrote the music (aaaargh), produced and directed it. In a supreme example of got too much money wish fulfilment he cast himself as an irresistable, hard man sheriff type who has sex with various women (only snogs Bridget though). It was like Rowan Atkinson doing Die Hard 4. It was dire - quite easily the worst film I've seen for ages. Lots of horrible gratuitous violence, deathly slow, acting of the plank of wood variety.
I've just been looking at Dwight Yoakam's fansite and contemplating joining in order to critique the film on the message boards - but I might get tracked down and killed by the legions of "We love ya Dwight!" posters on there.
It was bad.
