Someone should edit that scene and put it up on youtube so you don't have to look at fucking DJ Qualls when you're trying to enjoy the beauty of that scene. |

Family Portraits: A Trilogy of America - 8/10 3 great little shorts about madness and child abuse and other topics from the same director. The best short "Cutting Moments" has Power Rangers having doll sex, a girl who cuts her own lips off (and then her tits get cut off), gore by Tom Savini, and the main character looks like Steve Albini! Reccomended. benny's video - 5/10 Guess I just don't like Haneke's movies. I've only seen a few now and they've all been interesting and seem to be going for something really mindblowing but they all end up going nowhere. This film's okay, probably the best I've seen by him, but it literally adds up to nothing but an obvious punch line... we're a culture desensitized by tv violence! How obvious. There's a scene in this where the main character watches the Toxic Avenger, which I wish I was doing instead of watching this. thin blue line - 8/10 I remember seeing this when I was a kid and I recently revisited it after some discussion on the noise boards. I don't usually rate documentaries because I find them difficult to rate because my enjoyment of the subject matter covered in the documentary is going to affect how I rate it and how interesting I find the film and so on........, but this documentary in particular is one I think EVERYONE would enjoy. One of the most important documentaries ever. |

There's definitely a lot more going on in that Annabel Chong movie. There are some emotional scenes with her coming out to her mom - lot's of self-justification. It's a really well put together documentary. Quite depressing.

Yeah, that really was an excellent doc. It sort of crossed over into the art house cinemas here. I think it might've even won some awards at places like Cannes. One of those really interesting documentaries that starts off being about one thing, and then ends up being about something far more interesting.

Yeah, there's a lot going on in it but I was being quick and snappy.

This is a masterpiece, isn't it? I'd probably give it a 9/10. |

Yeah, and it was better than most feel good comedies as well. Although, I have a thing for English accents, so that may be why.

Revolutionary road ("les noces rebelles" in French). Good, better than American Beauty in my opinion, a bit depressing though.

I picked up a Werner Herzog box set for cheap, so yesterday I (re-)watched
love it. Before that it was The Deep End. edit: Skolimowski's I mean... looks like there's another movie by that name Also saw a documentary about Otomo Yoshihide in the cinema recently, Kikoe. It was pretty bad. trailer here: http://www.filmfestivalrotterdam.com/en/film.aspx?ID=6f704c21-9ce6-4a33-9a7f-33595486f409 |
