Fool to cry

...And Justice For All (1979) I knew about it for years from that famous "You're out of order! They're out of order!" scene at the end. Al Pacino (back when his voice was still higher) plays a defense attorney. It was co-written by future director Barry Levinson and set in his home town of Baltimore. Because of the seriocomic tone, the cast with Jeffrey Tambor, John Forsythe, Craig T. Nelson and Christine Lahti and the jazzy upbeat score by Dave Grusin it felt like a television show(but with cursing). It had eccentric minor characters like you'd see in 80s dramas Hill Street Blues and St. Elsewhere. I think director the point Norman Jewison's was trying to make was the justice system is so broken it can drive a person nuts.

George was also Macaulay Culkin's angry dad in the 1991 video of :

I get tired hearing how terrible the American education system is. Like in comments on videos where people on the street are asked basic questions about American history and they all guess wrong. Nobody remembers that when you're a teenager you can be taught as much history as you can and read a textbook full of information none of it sticks because it just isn't that important to you at that age. You'll remember enough to pass a test that week but most of it will be gone afterwards. You know why they seem more educated in other countries like England? Because they used to beat students with a stick and make them repeat over facts and over again!

Seeing Pope Leo XIV when he was young reminds me of character actor Bradford Dillman. He looked like he should be the guest on a 70s Quinn Martin production.

Okay I did not know this about Look Who's Talking? The 1989 movie where you hear the thoughts of a baby(voiced by Bruce Willis) starring John Travolta and Kirstie Alley and directed by Amy Heckerling(Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Clueless). I remember seeing commercials for it when I was a kid but never watched it but now I'm going to after learning some info on Blank Check podast. Here it is from Wikipedia:

I'm sorry I didn't mean to spoil anything but I just assumed everybody knew K-2SO was appearing this season. It would have been jarring to go into Rogue One and suddenly Cassian has a sidekick that's a reprogrammed Imperial Enforcer Droid. As long as how they met isn't spoiled for you. Cute trivia learned at Star Wars celebration in Japan: Alan Tudyk's code name(so that his appearance wouldn't be leaked) that appeared on his trailer was "Old Pal".

Also Xander is supposed to be mid 40s, but Brandon is 54 but looks 60 now.

He was supposed to be a teenager through most of that run. This is the problem of having actors pushing 30 playing teens. They look like adults acting immaturely when the characters are pretty much in line with the mentality of their age.

Dang, nobody wants him to at least have matured and acknowledged and regretted the ways he's been a douche in the past? No points for the good moments like "You're my hero." talking DarkWillow down, and making Dawn feel better for not being a Slayer? I figured out the problem is Xander was written like a sitcom character in a mostly dramatic show. Most sitcom characters are awful human beings but in their correct setting they're just harmless fools.

I looked her up and she was on the 1st season of Star Trek The Next Generation "Too Short a Season" as the wife of an elderly admiral who had been secretly taking age reversing drugs so he temporarily becomes young again. The admiral was played by a young actor in (very bad) old age makeup. I'm trying to picture them together younger but it's difficult. Like trying to picture Matt Damon with Kathleen Byron(who played "Old Private Ryan"'s wife in Saving Private Ryan)!
