Thanks, TV

Before I watched the entire John Adams mini-series on HBO, I would say that I was a fan of Paul Giamatti and curious about John Adams.

Now I would say that I am just wishing I had a time machine so I could go back to my state of innocence.

It's not Paul Giamatti's fault that they hired a guy who is clearly still in film school to direct it though.

Also, here's how I picture the conversation right before the scene where Sarah Polley gets a mastectomy going.

SARAH: Um, do we really need to show my breast right before they cut it off?

DIRECTOR: Oh, definitely. So, pop that sucker out and lay down there.

SARAH: I mean, because, they'll know it's there. They won't be like "prove that you have a boob before they cut it off."

DIRECTOR: Um, look lady, it's not like you've directed a movie, now show me those titties!

SARAH: Actually, I directed Away From Her? It got nominated--

DIRECTOR: ACTION!

Maybe I should watch Lady In The Water now. It has to be better, right? RIGHT?
