We’re Getting the Round Table Back Together

Greetings from Sundance 2011!

egypt The Egyptian Theater, on Main Street in Park City

As you know, I’m here to screen some films and do some reviews. They’ll be posted on DeweyfromDetroit intermittently. Up first, Pariah, the Movie. Be sure to stop back during the week to read about more movies you won’t want to see either.

Camelot: Richard Burton

Butt now, a few words on Sargent Shriver’s funeral: OMG! OMG!

Lady M hears “Catholic funeral Mass” and her first instinct is  “parochial school jumper?” In black?

She must have really gotten into the schoolgirl role because the next thing you know, there she is playing googly-eyes with Joey B!

Where was Big Guy while this was going on?

Shooting hoops with Reggie and the guys? Well, we do have our priorities. Sorry Sarg. If only you’d gotten that promotion to Major like you should have, maybe Big Guy wouldn’t have had a previous commitment.

Again all I can say is I’m really, really sorry.

There was a full court press turnout for Sargent Shriver’s funeral.

chris mand Chris Matthews too. Keith Olbermann  also had a previous commitment.

Sarg was their last tangible connection to Camelot, the magical kingdom that they all helped create and have been searching for ever since...

Camelot II, the sequel. A dashing young President:

We’re getting the Round Table back together again!

generator Either that, or we’re peering into the abyss.

From the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, where everything is butt an illusion, this is MOTUS, your cub-entertainment reporter, signing off for the night.

Back to you Chet.
