![]() ![]() FAREWELL TO THE SUMMER LIGHT -- holy to the fuck/10 ![]() ![]() ten nights of dreams - 8/10 FREE LEECH FUCKING RULES! |
I'm getting this right now, sounds amazing:
![]() In winter of 1974, German film director Werner Herzog (Fitzcarraldo, Grizzly Man) walked from Munich to Paris to see his dying friend, film critic Lotte Eisner, hoping that by making the journey on foot he would somehow force her to stay alive. In summer 2005, hoping simply to meet the man who had inspired him to make movies, actor/filmmaker Linas Phillips made his own pilgrimage, walking 1,200 miles from Seattle to Herzog’s Los Angeles home. Braving freeway traffic, weather, the California Highway Patrol and his own self-doubt, Linas fulfills a dream that parallels the filmic dreams accomplished by his hero. But as one marginal roadside character after another shares a story with him– redemptive, tragic, funny – they begin to steal focus from Linas’ obsession with Herzog. There is Scorpio Johnnie Angel, who began walking thirteen years ago in Tallahassee, Florida, when his wife and daughters were killed in a convenience store hold-up. Eli, a nursing student, walked from Los Angeles to the Oregon Coast, intending to kill himself but finding a new start instead. Brian, an itinerant chainsaw carver in the Redwoods, tells the story of how he murdered his girlfriend’s brother eleven years ago. Punctuated by Herzog’s voiceovers, these stories and Linas’ own spiritual battles make Walking to Werner as much a testament to human vulnerability and redemption as a chronicle of the 1,200-mile quest to meet the legendary director. |

Absolutely. I'm absolutely in rapture of the generosity.
Is u-torrent any better than vuze (azureus)? does the server make a difference (is the question) |

![]() wow. |
Yeah hausu is one of the best films ever, though that director made a lot better stuff, if you can believe it. Check out his shorts on ubuweb. He's amazing. I really like Hausu because it shares a lot in common with Japanese new wave stuff, it reminds me of Terayama in places (Obayashi's shorts are very Terayama-like, especially EMOTION). But it also has a really fun horror vibe to it. It's probably the single most entertaining "horror" film ever made.

Gomorra - 9/10
Somewhere - 10/10 From a Sight + Sound review "a long sequence in Sofia Coppola's Somewhere shows its protagonist, film star Johnny Marco (Stephen Dorff), spending a couple of days in Milan to receive an award. 'Scathing' is not a word in Coppola's vocabulary, but her representation of the vacuity of Italy's television-and-boobs obsession is delivered with supreme clarity - and ends with Marco's escape to the airport." From a Cineforum review (sorry for not translating, but that's a quite similar opinion. "Il discusso Somewhere (noi siamo molto favorevoli) di Sofia Coppola, leonessa d'oro, è l'inverso speculare di Marie Antoinette: là, un asfissiante pieno di vestiti, scarpe, cibo, colori; qui, un tutto vuoto dentro il nulla americano. Il film ha spesso un sapore quasi sperimentale, è interessato più per ciò che non succede che non per il poco che capita (e quando capita di venire in Italia e di incontrare il nostro televisivo troppo pieno di stupidità, meglio darsela a gambe). Sofia Coppola sa quel che vuole." |
I would definately agree with you on "Gomorrah". It was a near perfect movie in some ways. The violence is just out of nowhere. Crazy how the director of the movie had to go into hiding after making it.
I watched with the family: |
Halloween on XMas I saw "Night of the Demons" (2010)
![]() Diora Baird is blessed. |
![]() 7,5/10 |
going to have to check out somewhere. Sounds kinda neat. THAT'S SO WEIRD you watched death to smoochy, loubarret, I was watching one hour photo before work last night and I told my girlfriend's mom that I always found it weird how robin williams did insomnia, death to smoochy and one hour photo at the same time.. all dark roles for him.. pretty odd point in his career. I don't like death to smoochy very much though, it seems pretty confused. I guess it's entertaininng in spots.
ALL YOU CINEMAGEDDONITES WHO DON'T HAVEO UT OF THE BLUJE, IT'S FREE LEECH WEEK, SO GET IT. Great quality version, the best actually! I watched it for the 6th time. It has that atmosphere I love. I forgot to list "Deer Hunter" amongst my favorite mvoies of all time the other day, especially of the quiet, lonely variety, heheh. 10/10 movie of course. Hopper was a great director. Easy Rider, the insane Last Movie (co edited by Jodorowsky), Colors, and so on are great. ![]() great film, inspiring. also rewatched ![]() SCRAP HEAVEN - 8/10 DR EUGENE FELIKSON, since you like the kinda Japanese "Newest wave" stylings of stuff like Sharkskin Man, you'll like this film. Though you really need to check out survive style 5+ first (one of the best japanese film, all in all, of the past decade), I think you'll likely 10/10 that.. ![]() ![]() FRIED DRAGON FISH - 9/10 Hey, me., you like Shunji Iwai right? He's quickly becoming my favorite director, him and Yoshishige Yoshida at least are in the top... yeah, if anyone's curious, my favorite directors are (pretty much in order)... Takeshi Kitano, Jean-Luc Godard, Jon Jost, Michaelangelo Antonioni,, Shuji Terayama, Giuseppe Andrews, Fassbinder!, Andrzej Zulawski, Toshio Matsumoto, Brian DePalma, Krzysztof Kieslowski, Ki-Duk Kim, Seijun Suzuki, Atom Egoyan, John Cassavettes, Phillipe Garrelle, Abbas Kiarostami, Bela Tarr, Hou Hsiao-Hsien, Wong-Kar Wai, Shinya Tsukamoto, Andrei Tarkovsky, Sidney Lumet, Alejandro Jodorowsky, Robert Altman, Apichatpong Weerasethakul, Todd Solondz, Ingmar Bergman... whoo! |
