Auteur Watch - Will Jennings

Ah, he's not a director.  But look at some of those titles!  Some big-ass titles there!  Titanic, A Beautiful Mind, Moulin Rouge!... people still like the Moulin Rouge!, right?  I bet he could've gone into directing if he wanted to.  Even if it was just a short film, maybe a documentary about... what else?  A DAY IN HIS FRICKIN' LIFE!!!  Ah, he'd probably pick a day like the day he gets some lifetime award from the music industry.  That is a good storytelling strategy, incidentally... sorry, I saw some of the Oscars (TM) (R) (C) tonight.  It's all about storytelling, folks... and fancy outfits.  And once again, database administrators at the IMDb, I get to complain about double dipping.  See, he's got two numbers: the regular one, and then this one that goes to the regular one.  But you know what?  I'll give this guy a pass.  A bigshot like him needs at least two numbers.
