Not too bad. Orson Welles irritated the *expletive* out of me, though.

It really just convinced me that i'd sit through anything as long as it has Rita Hayworth.

Orson's Irish accent was realllllly bad. The guy that played Grisby was a hoot.

Is it scary or anything? I'll make my daughter watch it with me.

Is that the answer to my question about whether or not it's scary??? I guess she sat through Sweeney Todd 3 times, an old movie shouldn't scare her.

Nah, not scary in the least. The funhouse scene lasts 5 minutes at the end, and not a frame of the mannequin part is in it.

I gotta echo Enigmatic's sentiments, too.

Ok that was disturbing. How did he NOT know that she was bad news from the start?

LOL that's true. And Enigmatic's pic didn't do her justice.

It's not like Welles' character was the brightest bulb on Broadway to begin with. Laughing

I loved the shark analogy. George's voice grated on me and Arthur was just icky.

I can see why D'Onfrio was chosen to play him in Ed Wood, but I wouldn't have dubbed over his voice. It was close enough.
