Okay I’m down. Here’s tonight’s engagement-bait: Why Are You Like This?
In my case it’s a roughly equal proportion of:
- Doctor Who
- The Unbearable Lightness of Being (the 1988 movie)
- Rocky Horror
- Paul’s Boutique
Doctor Memory
I'm rewatching Altman's Popeye, and I'm reasonably certain this is Patient Zero for a half dozen reasons I'm Like This.
