Michael Crichton was a creative powerhouse and so successful across a variety of fields that even though he’s dead I still feel like a sniveling booger on the underside of his boot

First things first: who thinks it’s a good idea to call an action movie Pentathlon? I bet a fair few people don’t even know what the hell one is.

Faye Dunaway took a slightly less stellar path after her victorious turn in Network. She chose the trashy, red herring-filled Eyes, a box-office hit that mixed horror and thriller elements with unadulterated nonsense.

How often do you find a good movie? I mean, what’s your success rate? Nowadays I guess mine’s pretty low.
