We both hope we do right by you, Scott. For the record, since you all love the film so much, my own love of it has been gaaudrl, and one of the reasons I wanted to do this is because my reaction to it has been so all over the place. So in my half of the first post, I focus on my early misgivings. I say this just to let you know that my love for THE MAN WHO WASN’T THERE will come through more in later installments, so I hope you will not kill me until you’ve read those.
