If you were to ask me of my favorite film, three spring to my tongue: The Princess Bride, Bell, Book and Candle, and The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Other films that I enjoy above the masses are: Another Man's Poison, Scream, Totally F***ed Up, Bound, Destry Rides Again, The Birds, Trainspotting, The Doom Generation, Hellraiser: Bloodline, Nowhere, etc.


I like fellow Japanese-American from Los Angeles filmmaker Gregg Araki. Next time you can't think of a movie to rent, try renting The Living End (a homosexual movie by Gregg Araki) or one of the Teenage Apocalypse Series, each featuring James Duval (Totally F***ed Up + The Doom Generation + Nowhere).

A fun past-time is looking for Hitchcock's cameos in his own films.


My favorite entertainer is Marlene Dietrich. Other actresses I am fond of include: Carole Lombard, Tallulah Bankhead, and Louise Brooks. More of a cult following for them, wouldn't you say? I also like Bette Davis. There really needs to be a page for her. Right now I haven't the time to search for one. Margaret Cho is a comedian who's been in a few films. Check her out.

Tallulah: My father warned me about men and booze but he never mentioned a word about women and cocaine.

MEOW: Really? My father warned me about neither, but my mother did say

gershon I really don't like any of the current actresses, but Gina Gershon is one of the few.

Gina: When I go to new towns I go to the strip clubs and I go to the flea markets and between the two of them you can suss out and get a feel for the town.

MEOW: She seems like a nice girl.
