anyway last night i finally watched the legendary HOOP DREAMS.
which was 3 hours long
and so before we started i said "eh, it's so long, we can watch it on installments"
but then we couldn't turn it off and ended staying up late!
it was really amazing and the time went flying by.
the criterion disc comes with the siskel/ebert reviews in the extras, which are worth a good look not just because how much they loved this movie (best of the year/best of the decade) but also because they really shook up the establishment re: documentary oscars.
