Seven Pounds (2008) - ★★★☆☆

So, Woody Harrelson has brown eyes at the end of this movie

Even though I know they didn't actually put Will Smith's eyes into Woody's skull, it still looks

Very weird!

Eventually you probably would get used to it but since it only happens at the end of the movie you don't really get a chance to

Not that I have anything against brown eyes! I have brown eyes! One time in my senior year of high school I had to go home after fifteen minutes because my eyes got really

P uffy and I was crying in the bathroom stall outside the auditorium. I'm not sure if it was allergies

Or something. Anyway this movie also has Rosario Dawson in it who was in Rent. Recently Rosario has been in the news because she was dating

Unsuccessful presidential candidate Cory Booker, someone I think

Nobody likes, probably not even Rosario

Dawson.

Shocking (that's a description of this movie, which really did have a shocking ending but that might have been only because I probably was not paying attention. I guess I probably should have figured out what was going to happen when Will Smith brought a deadly jelly fish to the motel room he said he was going to live in until he died.)

brown eyed Woody. You have to admit it's a little scary.

The Big White (2005) - ★★★☆☆

It is, perhaps, a little-known fact that a movie only needs exactly one (1) ingredient to be a good movie. That ingredient is not a good director (what even is a director? The guy who clacks the black and white thing and shouts "action!"?). That ingredient is not beautiful cinematography (though The Big White has no shortage of that. I really liked the vast snowy landscapes and also the matching snowy whiteness of the insurance office, especially since it was snowing outside my window while I watched this movie and I guess that just felt serendipitous). That ingredient is not an incredible and talented cast—something I think everyone agree this movie has (Robin Williams, yes, but also this guy , who looks like Pete "Mad Men" Campbell, but isn't. I like him a lot and would like to see more of him!). That ingredient is not even—dare I say it?—Woody Harrelson. Many a movie, in fact, as this blog evidences, is very bad in spite of Woody's wonderful presence. ...

The Hi-Lo Country (1998) - ★★★★★

A shockingly underrated and under-talked about Woody Harrelson masterpiece. Reminsicent of the classic Marty Robbins banger, "Tall Handsome Stranger," this is a must watch for cowboy fans and Woody Harrelson fans alike. Unequivocally Woody's best cowboy role!!!!!

LBJ (2016) - ★☆☆☆☆

I'm horrified! They should not have done this to Woody! Why did they need to make his ears so damn big? And get rid of his beautiful blue eyes?? I had a specific memory of watching an HBO movie about LBJ in 2016 and liking it, so I was expecting this to be good—little did I know, HBO made two movies about LBJ in 2016 and this is apparently the bad one! And when I say bad, I mean bad! Etc., etc. There's a much more important issue that needs to be discussed. Please take a moment to think about this question: What color hair did JFK have? If you said dark grey, you'd be like me. I mean, look at this picture and tell me that's not what color it is! Well, color me surprised, because apparently this is a black and white photo and that means that even though everything in it looks to be various shades of grey, that's actually due to a specific type of photographic technology which is not capable of reproducing colors. Okay. Fine. Whatever. If this picture is concealing ...
