* The 180-minute "director's cut" of Margaret is available only on the standard definition DVD.  I guess that's why the Blu-ray was available from Netflix so quickly. Sheesh.

* Andrew Sarris claimed he paid to see That Hamilton Woman 83 times.

* Alex Cox on Lonely Are The Brave:  "There is no greater western, and certainly no more tragic one."
