Anyone got a copy of Todd Hayes "Karen Carpenter Story" the anime biopic of dear departed one using Ken and Barbie as models? It had to be pulled from distro about 15 yrs ago, not because of objection from Carpenter survivors, or even from the record company (A&M?), but because Mattel chose to silence an indie filmmaker. SO even before SLAPP they were off the leash.
I agree it's not Truffaut's best movie, but then again the depiction of the 'game shows' you mentioned was very good (on flat panel plasma screens, no less).
Also the scene where Montag's wife is 'revived' after overdosing was very well done.
my workprints from DuArt labs still come back with blue paper tape with color timing info. apparently an industry standard.
i still have a stacks of those hollerith cards from the days at city college. i don't miss them at all but i love to use them as bookmarks. well, i'm dating myself....

no difference between "film" and "movie". or "art" for that matter. movies are art, and there's all sorts of art, and no accounting for taste
