Sometimes, there are movies that can help you understand things by making you feel them. Until now, my best example of this was "Apollo 13", because after I saw it, I finally understood why my father used to drag my sister and I out of bed at ridiculous hours of the morning to watch the space shuttle launches.

gmskarka and I went to see the original "Gojira" at Liberty Hall here in Lawrence last night. It was the actual original, uncut, unedited, no Raymond Burr, from 1954. They showed it as part of the three day seminar that KU is hosting for Godzilla's 50th Anniversary, which meant that there was a brief introduction before the film and a discussion afterwords. We weren't able to stay for the discussion because we're both fighting off the creeping crud, but I wish we could have, because this is the kind of film you need to talk about after you see it.
