I dig it, but it's definitely Terayama's worst (and too bad it's his last :().

I mean, nothing will ever be as good as Pastoral: To Die in the Country, which I've recently decided is the best film ever made.

haha, what? That's Christina Aguilera..

TheFoxBen 07.18.2010 10:34 AM

Oh my god, those French blogs are one of the many reasons I sometimes hate the internet :D And yeah, it looks like Christina Aguilera, she's not an actress I think...

Today, I went to the cinema and watched:

 


10/10. I thought it was going to be a simple movie about loneliness in space and all that psychological shit in the beginning but it turned out to go WAY FURTHER than that. I was truly amazed, it's a very smart movie. I simply love about everything in this movie, it has probably Clint Mansell's best score, it's one of the few movies where I thought that the music fit SO WELL and actually BROUGHT something to the movie. Sam Rockwell's performance is nothing short of incredible, one of the best I've seen in the past years. The directing is just classic and works very well, there are some really BEAUTIFUL shots throughout the whole movie and I even shed a tear during at least two scenes (and yet, I hardly ever cry during movies). In short, one of the best sci-fi movies I've ever seen.

A very nice picture of Christina A.

only a 6 for touch of evil? its amazing. and good call on out of the past, great noir.

DanielCarlson 07.18.2010 01:31 PM

I really like parts of Touch of Evil. The opening is great, it's a beautiful film to watch and the last 30 minutes or so are pretty amazing. Orson Welles role is great.

My biggest problem with it is the dialogues I think. They felt stupid and silly, and I couldn't tell if it was because they tried to be funny and failed or what it was. They annoyed me and ruined the mood of the film several times.

Out of the Past is great, Robert Mitchum is one of my favorite actors!

GIUSEPPE ANDREWS RETIRES FROM FILMMAKING!
gods/goddesses,

i have never talked much about my movie making experience,and the times i have for the most part hide what they were really about.Film (like all other mediums) is an artistic tool for soul-lessons,this medium in particular allows the artist to record visually the outer-life...there in lies the difficulty with it since true answers are found inside.The artist is born yearning to
express to others the inner-life even if he or she doesn't realize it when they begin to explore their gifts.I became very frustrated with trying to make film exude what music can do so easily that it would be a waste of time to keep pursuing it.This exiting of the
film medium is not sad for me,it is joyous! I'm glad to not be stifled any longer from what i can share with you through music
about our inner-life,the outer is obviously a huge part of cinema (even for the greats) and you run into all it's lies,nonsense and agony time and time again (along with it's massive beauty too of course but the other hoops get old.) My soul learned what it needed from this medium and i am grateful for the experience,i beat every addiction,confusion and ignorance through it,and most importantly learned music from it! My greatest joys making the films were when scenes i created gave one of the actors a heightened experience that took them away from their pain,lonliness,& fears for a moment..for me that's why they're important.

i love you,
giuseppe

Ugh. Terror Firmer is waaaaaaaay too long. I got a copy of it from a pawn shop many years ago, the double disc unrated dvd, for $3. Ended up giving it away for free.

I really liked Terror Firmer a lot. I've seen it many times.

Touch of Evil and Out of the Past are amazing. Touch has probably the weirdest casting ever though in Charlton Heston.

 


Pretty interesting film, I'm not sure if there was a purpose in mind, but I think I can sort of see the edges of the nebula of what it was about. Though I'd hesitate to speculate until I saw it again.

That being said, I just thought it was ok...well let me phrase it this way. I thought the beginning was rather dull with some moments of interest. But ultimately I just kind of had a whatever vibe to it. That is until the 'prophets' portion when he goes after the four Masters of the Gun. That whole section of the film is incredible! There are just some amazing bits there, the nihilism, the antithetical thinking, the rabbits! That 20 minute period or however long it was was really stellar.

Then the movie got pretty lame again, though I liked the church bit with the members playing russian roulette to gamble with God, that part was cool. Strangest rollercoaster of quality this film.

Rob Instigator 07.19.2010 12:16 PM

Tennembaums is great and gets better every viewing. the characters are not supposed to be likable.

Touch of Evil is a 10/10 for me. Love that movie. Well's character alone...

MOON was fucking awesome.

Saw this yesterday


 


for a die-hard american football fan this was a tough one to watch. If I had no love, friends, talents, or music to love, I could see myself getting like this poor guy, reclusive and omni-obsessed with his favorite team the NY Giants.
Very sad movie at times. 9/10
