This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Here's a movie I think would appeal to many on this list. It's an
artist's (An Lee)approach to genre material, in this case the
chop-sockie Hong Kong flick. God knows it's not everybody's cuppa--the
person I went with hated it--but I think it's ours. The last time a
movie was touted here was last spring's "Gladiator," and I think that,
in a very different way, was also worthy. Check it out.
