St. Elmo's Fire Turns 35!


On June 28th 1985 the movie St. Elmo's Fire was released making it 35 years old, today. Directed by the recently deceased Joel Schumacher it was one of those movies that defined a generation. 

While I haven't seen it since it first came out, I remember it vividly, mainly because of it's sharply drawn and honest characters. I also had graduated High School the year before the movie debuted, thus it's relevance to me.

So let's take a stroll down memory lane shall we? We shall, here is the cast of St. Elmo's Fire then and now (source E!Online):

I Am The "Tiger King"

Exotic
Rob Lowe
I have a confession to make, I have not seen Tiger King. Yet, because of the wonder of Social Media I feel like I have. Yeah, there's that. 

Well the media frenzy has extended to celebs dressing like Joe Exotic during their quarantine downtime. File that under things to do in Hollywood when one is bored.

My pick for the best Joe Exotic get up is Rob Lowe pictured above. It's pretty eerie, and there's a feral intensity to Rob that really shouts "Exotic."

Thus it makes perfect sense that he and the ubiquitous Ryan Murphy are developing their own version of the truth is stranger than fiction story.

Hey, sounds good to me, and aren't you happy???

Memorial Day Weekend: Behind The Candelabra

Michael Douglas & Matt Damon

Well, it's officially here, the movie no studios wanted to make. So HBO took it and ran with it. The movie that stars two great "A-List" actors getting their gay on.

It's Steven Soderbergh's "Behind The Candelabra" starring none other than acting legend Michael Douglas as the one and only Liberace and Matt Damon as his paramour Scott Thorson.....

Well I for one am excited about this HBO movie it looks like a really honest and poignant take on when gay performers were asked to stay in the closet no matter what. Of course who did not know Liberace was gay?! I'm just saying...

The supporting cast is quite stellar - Debbie Reynolds as Liberace's Mom is an awesome choice as she knew her in real life. Also on for the ride and perfectly cast is Rob Lowe as Dr. Jack Startz.

Wanna know what I will be doing this Sunday May 26th at 9 pm?

Happy Memorial Day Weekend, and cheers to a shit load of Emmy nominations, for what I am sure is going to be one of the most groundbreaking HBO Films, ever! Word!
