Killing time between theatrical events today the boy and I see Rampart, movie playing at The Plaza in Calgary about a bad cop turned worse, starring Woody Harrelson. Good, but bleak as all out. So - how to recommend a film that makes you want to throw out the entire police force (because, sad to say, I've met a few that this film would persuade me is more the tale of the norm than the unusual)?. It's good, well directed, well acted, and very true to life, but it's bleak. Bleak bleak bleak...

I'm happening by a house and end up inside.
There's a party going on, in another room there's some hand-drawn animation, its the first movie to be made by the creators of Southpark, Trey Parker and Matt Stone, there's hand scribbled pictures of Tarzan and then it turns into real life, in the next room there's a party, Trey and Matt are trying to get it all down...
In the next room, the party room, there's an orgy of sorts, young actresses I vaguely recognize, I'm trying to get Trey to explain to me how they got funding for this, their first venture, he's too busy going between being inside the movie to watching the movie to try and answer...
Strange dream, lurid, long, filled with peculiar details that I can't quite remember...
