Mar. 11 NAME THAT MOVIE Answer and Top-10 Thursday

NAME THAT MOVIE Answer

The answer to yesterday's NAME THAT MOVIE is Super Troopers.

Jude Seymour, Sarah Rivette and Corey Fram answered correctly.

Super Troopers. Rated: R.

One-minute review: It's hard to believe this film is closing in 10-years-old. I distinctly remember quoting it throughout high school. It is a pretty stupid movie with brilliant one-liners. It is instantly quotable. You will laugh a lot. Go watch it, meow. Add to Netflix queue, Add to Blockbuster queue. It is unfortunate the creators of Super Trooper followed it up with Club Dread.

9. Who the #$&% is Jackson Pollock?

There isn't a preview available, but here is a brief summary. A low-class woman bought a painting at a yard sale for $5. An art teacher friend of hers said it looked like a Jackson Pollock painting. She then tries to find out if it really is since it is not signed by him. The search pits her against the art world and experts who say it is not actually Jackson Pollock's work. Then she goes to science, to prove it. This is a very fascinating and funny documentary that exposes the cultural difference between high-end art and low-income America.
