Sometimes, I doubt your commitment to Sparkle Motion
That wacky Homeland Security is holding up the director of Donnie Darko from going to Cannes because his name is on the no-fly list.

The guy's name is James Kelly. So far, I have heard about one million stories of people with names on the watchlist, and they are all the most common names you could imagine. No one named, say, Porphyria Rumplybottom is on the list. It's all "Ann Smith" and "John Rogers." How many taxonomically dull Americans have to miss flights before we realize that this common-named-terror-suspect thing is just an Al-Qaeda plot to slowly annoy the great Satan into submission?

That actress who played the psycho anti-Graham Greene mom should seriously have more roles as a stick-in-the-mud. She was stellar. To this day, I hear the sparkle-motion line and fall over laughing from my memory of her look of shock and horror.
