DVD, Third Window
This Japanese film seems almost purposely designed to fox those who like to file their DVDs by category. It's got romance, comedy, drama, tragedy, action, religion, satire, sex, suicide, murder, marriage, cults, drugs – the lot really. That and the four hour running time would seem to seal its fate as something of a hard sell. But it's often amazing, frequently dazzling and never in any way, shape or form predictable or boring. Director Sion Sono clearly went all out on this. In the lengthy Making Of included, he openly and repeatedly regrets even attempting such an epic undertaking – "I shouldn't have made this movie." The pre-titles set-up alone takes almost an hour without a frame wasted. Seeing the plot unfold and reveal all its treats and surprises is the main selling point here. The characters all beat impossibly unpredictable paths that make perfect sense in the film's internal logic. »

The site notes that Chenoweth originally told E! last year that she'd love to have Kerry play the part, and Kerry told the press today that she ran into Kristin in L.A. and told her she'd love to play her girlfriend. “It’s very exciting," Washington said. "I feel like I’ve been waiting to make out with her forever.”
I'll pause while several of you nod in agreement.
