[!@#$%!]

im sort of opposed to torrents except for desperate cases but i think with jack smith being that he's supposed to be this quasi-tactile director anything crummy-looking is going to be a huge affront. no? but i know someone who might have access to a film print. i'll have to ask.

anyway was sorting my netflix queue and found a few more names i had (duh!) forgotten

fassbinder

herzog

zhang yimou

jean cocteau

some wayne wang-- he can be pretty shit in hollywood but he's made indie films i've really enjoyed (smoke, chinese box)

ang lee (in spite of that disgraceful hulk)

t&b already said beat takeshi. he's a fucking genius.

DENYS ARCAND

more later...
