IIRC, The Third Man is a notable example of deep focus cinematography- foreground, middle, and background all in focus. And that's why you get the rich and full shots that you find in stuff like Citizen Kane (and... again... IIRC, The Third Man).

The Room AKA That "You're tearing me apart Lisa!" Movie

What the [expletive]? I'm pretty sure I just watched a greasy mentally-impaired man spend $6 million to rub his boner on some blonde woman's belly button. I mean, it's funny as hell, but the existence of such a movie raises so many questions that my brain hurts.

I can't enjoy Bill Hicks anymore in the same way I can never again enjoy "Stairway to Heaven" or "Smells Like Teen Spirit." The myth and the praise has so overwhelmed the reality, it's hard for me to put his act in the proper perspective. The superlatives heaped on him since he died are way over the top.

I'll go a step further and say I don't find him funny at all.
