Do you think "Chinatown" is one of the most brilliant movies you've seen? Well, Bruce Willis is going to star "in comedic homage to Chinatown set in a Catholic high school".

"Willis' 18-year-old daughter, Rumer, last seen in Hostage, will appear in a supporting role".

I slept through most of Chinatown (what? It was slow!), but I do enjoy a good film noir satire.

"Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatown," is one of my favorite movie quotes. Very useful in daily conversation.

Maybe someone can explain for me why Chinatown is so highly regarded. It got a big shrug from me. It just seemed really...average.

(That link brings up a full screen ad that won't go away, even when I click "Close." Nice work LA Times!)

And to think I was just doing the slap-slap-slap "She's my daughter! She's my sister!" thing this very morning.

in front of the mirror, to yourself? or to somebody else?

Chinatown: totally awesome.

Bruce Willis homage to Chinatown: frightening.
