I love movies and if you are reading my blog you probably do too. Does anything else really matter?

This Blog takes its name from the 1985 Movie Fandango. The directorial debut of Kevin Reynolds, and the first significant appearance by Kevin Costner. Not that well know, if you haven’t seen it, you should, but don’t take my word for it, this is what Quentin Tarantino sad about it in a 1994 Vanity Fair interview:
“Kevin Reynolds is going to be the Stanley Kubrick of his decade,” Tarantino proclaims. “I think so. Fandango is one of the best directorial debuts in the history of cinema. I saw Fandango five times at the movie theater and it only played for a fucking week, all right? Five times I saw it! And Kevin Costner is so great in that movie. To me, the mark of a really cool actor is, after you see his performance, you want to act like him. All right, I wanted to dress like Kevin Costner. I started talking like Kevin Costner. I wanted to wear a filthy tuxedo and sleep and piss and barf and drink and sweat in a car going over the desert. He made a filthy tuxedo look like the coolest thing to wear.

I saw your screen name and had to check out your blog. The wedding scene in Fandango is one of my favorites of all time. thanks for bumping that memory loose for me.
Hey Michael,
Glad you found me. A couple of links you may be interested in. This one of my early blogs about Fandango complete with a photo of me in Texas where the Dig up Dom scene was filmed.

Hey, I’ve nominated you for a Kreativ Blog Award, which is a viral/spam pass-it-on kudos. I thought you deserved a bit of acknowledgment (and I imagine I’m not the only person to nominate you), keep up the good work. And this is a belated thanks for that post on the Usual Suspects which got me thinking, all those months ago. Good hustle (which is a phrase they don’t use enough anymore). There are details on my site, or you can google the award.

We would naturally provide a link back to your blog and provide a short bio if you supply it. The only changes we would make to your content would be adding any links we deem relevant to provide information to our readers (ex – links to our retail website or Wikipedia). Please let me know what you think of all of this, and keep up the amazing work!
I look forward to hearing from you.
