Blind Fury

Blind FurySnookums and I watched an awesome movie on telly the other night: Blind Fury starring Rutger Hauer. Here’s the official plot outline from the IMDb: “A blind Vietnam vet, trained as a swordfighter, comes to America and helps to rescue the son of a fellow soldier.” I ask you, what more does a film need? The bad guy is a drug dealer, and the cute little boy is Hobie from “Baywatch.” Awww, yeah, baby. Feel the 80’s love.

Quote of the Night:   That’s why Al Pacino gets an award for playing a blind man, and Rutger Hauer doesn’t.
– Snookums expressing his bitterness at the lack of critical respect for this fine piece of cinematic fare.

While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown.
