"Every fear hides a wish."

Well, it turns out I'll Sleep When I'm Dead was a great transitional movie, because although Edmond doesn't have any brotherly revenge, it does contain non-consensual buggery! Imagine my delight. As soon as the dialog started I said, "This has to be based on a stage play. Do you hear these people?" Sure enough it's a David Mamet play. I am not sure why Brandon thought it would fit in gun thugs week, because the only weapons wielded were knives, and no one was actually a thug. It was more like a psycho whackjob movie. Watching William H. Macy beat a pimp with a knife that has brass knuckles for a handle was pretty crazy but we weren't really all that entertained. The movie just seemed to go on and on without much of a point except that this guy is finally fed up with his life and what he perceives as society's injustices against him and all other white men, and just snaps. You would think it would end with him having to pay for his crimes, but no - we are then treated to a meandering few scenes about how he becomes all philosophical in jail and seems more fulfilled with his cellmate than he ever was with his wife.
