I can't remember the name of this movie!

Hey, about nine or ten years ago I watched the beginning of a movie that was about a guy who was making a living showcasing others' artwork in his gallery, and his wife was a psychiatrist. One of her patients tried to kill herself. Learning that this patient was an artist too, she suggested her husband's gallery. Her husband goes, sees her work, and the next day, when the psychiatrist asks the girl how it went she claims to have made love to the man who came to visit...Her Husband!...Now, I don't remember any of the actors or the name of the movie, so any help would be nice. I watched it on a movie channel (I don't remember that either), so It could have been either new or old then. Any suggested ideas about the name of this movie?

Annoying Promotional Pop Ups

Those promotional little captions advertising other shows, e.g. Mad Men, which appear in the bottom left of the screen during movies are really annoying. Some stupid cartoon character promoting Mad Men appeared just at a dramatic visual during The Fly. It ruined the scene. Is tis garbage necessary? Do we really need this stuff on screen so long? Why doesn"t AMC stop doing this.

ribs/festival

there was just a commercial that showed America's top rib cook offs/festival, what about the Best in the West Cook Off, this weekend in Nevada. I thought is was supposed to be one of the top one's in the nation?

HD?

Does anyone know if / when AMC will broadcast in HD?

I have a panasonic plasma tv, and all of the channels that aren't in high definition are slightly blurry. I love watching movies on AMC; but they would be much better in HD!

Blazing Saddles Bleeping

It is VERY difficult to watch Blazing Saddles on AMC when the language is bleeped....even more so than commercial TV bleeps. Many of the suttle jokes/humor are completely nulled by AMC's "Southern Baptist" language standards.

A Deadly Recompense

A Deadly Recompense is destined to become an American movie classic if it's made into a movie. I enjoy AMC just as much as I enjoy reading. Hollywood has been hurting for some real blockbusters for sometime now. Get A Deadly Recompense online at barnes and noble or amazon. I gusrantee you you won't be disappointed.

INDEPENDENT FILM "PORTLAND" MOURNS LOSS OF DAVID CARRADINE


Actor David Carradine was set to co-star in the feature film entitled PORTLAND shooting in Los Angeles, CA and Portland, OR this summer.

Los Angeles, CA, June 4, 2009 - The cast, crew, and producing team behind the feature film Portland are shocked and saddened to learn of the tragic passing of co-star David Carradine on the eve of principal photography.

Portland was set to be David's next film and was his only project currently in pre-production. Helmed by Matthew Mishory, the picture stars Erin Daniels, Jonathan Caouette, Steven Martini, Renee Victor, and Alex Schemmer. Carradine was set to play a pivotal role in the film and this has been a great loss for the entire PORTLAND family. "An actor of David Carradine's stature behind our film meant the world to us," said executive producers Adrian Salpeter and Elizabeth Levine of Random Bench Productions. "Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this difficult time".

The team is committed to this film and are considering other actors to replace the irreplaceable David Carradine. The producers and all involved are moving forward with the production in his memory.

Mr. Carradine was truly a living legend of stage and screen, having worked with Martin Scorsese, Hal Ashby, Ingmar Bergman, and Quentin Tarantino, among many others, in a career that spanned nearly five decades.

Writer/director Matthew Mishory adds, "every filmmaker aspires to work with an iconic actor like David Carradine, he was one of a kind".

1940 Movie "The Biscuit Eater"

I had taped this movie a number of years ago and misplaced my copy. I would love to see this classic about a boy and his bird dog "Promise". It is not available on vhs or dvd at all. Only the 1972 (disappointing) version can be found.
