For those not in the know, Patty hearst is the daughter of publishing tycoon Randlph Hearst & when she was 20 she was kidnapped by the SLA. The SLA then demanded her father distribute $6million of food to the poor ( Read more... )

Hmmm.

John Cusack is the brother of JOAN Cusack, who starred alongside Robin Williams in the craptastic movie 'Toys' that was directed by Barry Levinson, who ALSO directed 'Rainman' in which one of the characters was an autistic savant...and autistic savants LOVE chicken salt?

Grosse Point Blank.

Marty Blank (Cusack's character) claims he works at KFC (that's his alibi).

Also, John Cusack is hot. Especially young John Cusack.

Do you know if they'll be another screening of Strangers With Candy in Sydney? Where did you find out about it?

Sorry but neither of those answers are the one I was after. In Roadside Prophets, John Cusack plays a character named Casper. Joe (John Doe) & Sam (Adam Horovitz) meet him in a diner where he mentions he's Symbionese. He then orders a fuck-load of food for himself & the guys & after scarfing it down, runs out without paying screaming "Free food for the poor".

Pinch of Hope, unfortunately you missed it. There was a post in the flatpointhigh community (with a link to Myspace) about 2 free screenings (one in Melb, one in Syd). It's not getting theatrical release, booo!
