Sarah Michelle Gellar in "Southland Tales"
By: MaidenGreen


Southland Tales was another Sarah Michelle Gellar movie that went straight to DVD, I believe.  I haven't seen it yet, and I won't see it here because I don't get STARZ!  If you're working the next day and can't stay up this late, set your recording devises and watch it later.  biggrin  Southland Tales also stars Nora Dunn, Christopher Lambert, Mandy Moore, Miranda Richardson, and Justin TImberlake.

Airdates:
Thursday November 19th @ 1 AM on ENC
As usual when a show is airing early in the morning, I've listed this movie on the 18th so you can set your recording devises!

Film Summary:
California is at the epicenter of a political and environmental disaster that threatens to destroy the world in this ambitious fusion of comedy, drama, dystopia science fiction, and music. In the year 2005, a nuclear attack wipes out part of the state of Texas, and three years later America is a virtual police state, with the government taking control of nearly every part of people's lives, supposedly for their own good. A German firm has found a way to generate energy using seawater, but both public and private concerns are desperate to prevent the new technology from being introduced in the gasoline-starved United States. A Marxist underground based on the West Coast is determined to bring down the federal government through violent revolution. In this midst of this chaos, we follow a number of stories that continually return to three principle characters. Boxer Santaros is an actor famous for his role in action films; he's trying to secure financing for a new project, but reality keeps mirroring the events in his script and he struggles to hold on to his identity following a bout with amnesia. Krysta Now is a porn star who is reinventing herself as a television pundit offering her views on politics, contemporary culture, and teenage sex. And Roland Taverner is an L.A. police officer whose identity has mysteriously split in two and he struggles to track down his other half.

I hear this is a very odd one-it's by the  guy who did Donny Darko (which I still haven't seen) and is supposed to be not exactly the easiest movie to follow.....


Best wishes,
