He is a successful painter whose work sells for thousands of dollars.

Now he’s written his life story – AND IT IS SIMPLY BRILLIANT.

The best way to make a movie like Steel Magnolias more tolerable? Cast it with monkeys.

Pankun is a Japanese chimp who performs a scene from The Ring. I prefer Pankuns version.

Forget about the remakes and the sequels. Although there are no “real” monkeys starring in this film, it should inspire at least a few monkey related laughs.

Here’s the famous ending; and if you haven’t seen the movie, Amazon sells it cheap.
