Sunday night, a trio of networks kicked off Bonnie & Clyde, a two-part miniseries that offers a fresh glimpse of the good-boy-gone-bad Clyde and the fame-obsessed, gun-toting Bonnie, two criminals who captivated America with their Depression-era crime spree.
Starring Into the Wild's Emile Hirsch and television newcomer Holliday Grainger, the Bonnie & Clyde revival continues Monday, airing simultaneously on A&E, Lifetime and the History Channel. If you missed part one, we've recapped all the pulpy, violent action:
Spoiler Alert: Bonnie and Clyde don’t make it out alive. We know this because the miniseries opens with a glimpse of their blood-spattered bodies.

We start the Top 7. You finish the Top 10.
Well, it’s July, which means two things – the summer movie onslaught is underway, and the whole movie year itself is almost half over. Some films have made the journey since January very difficult, (Good Deeds, Act of Valor, One for the Money, Rock of Ages), while some surprising others have certainly kept things interesting (The Woman in Black, Chronicle, Polisse, The Flowers of War).
And yet, in our post-Artist Oscar-winning movie world, the strongest stance this year seems to come from the action movie, which has delivered better fare than any other genre. With movies like The Avengers to The Raid: Redemption, the genre has made the most efficient of re-evaluations to earn the most space on this list (The Hunger Games would likely be in my top ten, for what it’s worth). Also joining successful action movies are a few “cult favorites,...

Who’S It For?: Liberal or conservative, a lover of reality TV show stars or not, this very violent comedy is for viewers who can take a joke.
Expectations: My previous experience with Goldthwait’s films, World’s Greatest Dad, tickled me with its dark absurdity. I was curious as to how the comedian now writer/director who do with a concept that sounded like it could easily become a rant.

This week: The gay and bisexual male community has its share of bitches. Is it just us? And is there anything the rest of us can do about it?
A Note From the Author: Lots of advice columns claim to have “the answers” about life, but this one really does! How can I be so sure? Because these aren’t merely my opinions: they’re the actual wisdom of the universe, which I discern, like the mystics of old, by peering into a heaping pile of pigeon guts. But not to worry: these pigeon guts are gay, gay, gay.

Dear Pigeon Guts: Gay people in the Philippines are accepted in society, but mostly as comic relief. But I think there's discrimination among gays themselves. Gays here have different types or names.
