Today in Sound-Off Theater (Saturday)

Because I was on vacation Friday, I am engaging in my Sunday ritual 
of listening to NPR while surfing the web, reading two newspapers
and watching a movie with the sound off, today.

I have found another excellent candidate for soundless movie viewing: Robert Rodriguez's Once Upon a Time in Mexico.  This fantasmagoric extravaganza is almost unintelligible but my is it a feast for the eyes!  All those angles! All those close-ups!  All that blood!

What great faces:

Antonio Banderas
Salma Hayek
Johnny Depp
Mickey Rourke
Eva Mendez
Danny Trejo
Cheech Marin
Ruben Blades
Willem Dafoe

It is all so technicolorful!

Other great sound-off movies:
Catwoman
The Golden Compass

Titan A. E.
