And on that subject...

owlectomyI randomly turned on CBC and they were showing Kiriku and the Sorceress, a excellent African animated movie. This is the same movie that wouldn't get played in American theaters because it showed some animated bare breasts, in nothing like a sexual context. Go Canada.
Someone on a panel at WorldCon mentioned "How to Suppress Women's Writing" by Joanna Russ, who writes feminist science fiction; it's really quite intriguing and horrifying at the same time, but I haven't read much of it yet. Oh, and I started Edward II by Marlowe for my Ren Lit class. I'm only at the beginning of the first act--Elizabethan prose makes my brain go ouch, even after a semester of Old English--but I love it already...

I think it is getting a US DVD release, though, and I just saw it the other day at Kim's (video rental), so hopefully more people will have a chance to see this movie.
Very cool that it was on CBS, though.
PS did you see the nominees for the Feature Animation oscar this year? Brother Bear, Nemo, and Triplettes. After seeing Millenium Actress and Tokyo Godfathers, I just think they don't want another anime movie to win. Both were superior to "Brother Bear" and "Nemo", and at least on the same level as "Triplettes". IMHO, of course.
