    imagine paying $200 to watch a 2 hour French New Wave film that could have been collapsed into a 10 min scene of young people running around. $300 to watch In the Mood for Love, and in the end, they don't even kiss.

    On every movie he made ROBIN WILLIAMS asked the producers to hire at least 10 homeless people as Extras. Over 1500 people benefitted during his career as a result. Craig ‘Radio Man’ Costaldo (pictured below) is a famous ‘Extra’ who’s appeared in more than 300 Films, TV shows & Stage productions.

    It really does just come from this inchoate sense, derived from the film 300 and half-remembered high school history, that the Spartans were the most manly men to have ever manned and that's it. It is that thick-headed and anti-intellectual. There is no grappling with the actual Sparta.

    I think 300’s fascism was so open that it actually helped insulate the movie at release, because it seemed almost fantastical and absurd in Warhammer 40k way, but you watch it today and it’s like “oh yes this is just BAPism in cinematic form, a real-world ideology that’s destroying the country”
