Sunset Gun
From EW, Meander over to Sunset Gun and don't be fooled by the pretty pink backdrop against which Kim Morgan types. This Los Angeles writer posts vivid, hard-headed, muscular manifesto-essays and annotated lists of her favorite films and stars, many of whom tend to be women Morgan considers underrated or esteemed for the wrong films. She's recently posted a fine defense of Jane Fonda in Barbarella, and nurtures a finely honed admiration for Tuesday Weld in Pretty Poison. Morgan has also made me reconsider The Lost Weekend as something more than second-tier Billy Wilder and a good ad for AA. The entire website captures something of what it's like to live a certain kind of L.A. life, surrounded by the movie industry without being made cynical or jaded by it.
