Overdue explanations.

How Doc Brown and Marty McFly became friends.

What I'm really looking for, though, is an explanation of where Marty #2, from alternate-1985, gets sent at the end of Back to the Future part 1.  My money's on a prehistoric wasteland.

A Beautiful Movie About the End of the World

After reading the reviews, I decided not to see Lars von Trier's 2009 film, Antichrist; even though I admit to loving the darkness of Dogville and Dancer in the Dark, the prospect of watching a horror film that coheres around scenes of genital mutilation struck me as, well, not my cup of tea.


So I'm pleased to read that his new film takes him to a happier place (relatively speaking).  Melancholia will debut at Cannes in May.
