And I got embarrassingly far into this review before my memory was jogged as to which one MONKEY SHINES actually is. And more embarrassingly, I got all the way to the end and still couldn't remember if I'd actually seen this one, or if I was just thinking of that Argento movie with a helper monkey (I'm not making that up, right? There is such a movie?), or if I'd seen both.<br /><br />But, to your point of the experiment being unrepeatable, it could have been repeatable, by scores of people out there who'd never seen it, if they weren't all now biased from reading your blog post, invalidating their results. Maybe think twice before dooming a significant area of empirical movie inquiry forever next time.Shenanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01583975544502753710noreply@blogger.com
