Whacking Permalink Archive 19 March 2005 Anyone know of any good books on the history of the Cuba not written from a Castrro-apologist perspective? Similarly,
recommendations for a book on the history of the Caribbean would be welcome.
Say this to them:
If
they argue with you, tell 'em to go read Bui
Tin.
While I've not normally been an avid viewer of weekly TV drama, I've been a big fan of Law & Order for a while now. While in recent years it too often slips into tedious white-collar crime soap-opera, it still offers some of the best, concise cops-n-lawyers stories on TV. For the last few years, however, the presence of a particular cast member has often rendered some scenes unwatchable.
Her excruciating screen presence is so jarring, her delivery so inept she looks like some high school student who's blundered into a Globe Theatre Shakespeare production. At best, you'll be waiting for her to shut up so one of the other characters can talk. She must be screwing producer Dick Wolf in order to have kept her part for so long. Mercifully, Rohm is leaving the show this year. She will no doubt find work elsewhere, as - inexplicably - she has never had a problem finding paid work. I just hope it aint a show I like watching, as she's fucked up three of them already. And while I'm on this topic, who in god's name can actually watch Law & Order: Criminal Intent without wanting to smash Vincent D'onofrio's head in with a large brick? The guy is the most unbearable ham actor I've seen since I endured Nicholas Cage's 'performance' in Snake Eyes. What's truly unforgivable is that the big, stupid spazz takes away screen time from his co-star Kathryn Erbe, a great actress who is fondly remembered by HBO viewers as the child-murderer Shirley Bellinger on Oz. Personally,
I'm hoping for an episode where she gets to shoot D'onofrio's character.
Aint gonna happen though, and more's the pity.

Rohm is unquestionably one of the worst actresses in the history of television.
The blank, wide-eyed stare, a face which never changes expression and
that godawful, blaring monotonal voice.
