I have METROPOLITAN on in the background at the moment. Always liked it, better than I recalled.

I'll go with great. I like the others but there's something special about this one.

You're right about it's innocence. How many other films end with two guys trying to save a woman's honor?

What happened to the cast? They were all good but only one or two ever popped up in anything else.

i was answering you about "the kid with a bike" by way of quoting metropolitan-- remember the ginger's prejudices against austen (unintended pun) due to reading some critic. you go by a poster. check out the kid with a bike, dammit. great little story. don't prejudge.

but yes you're right about metropolitan.

from the cast, i know carolyn farina was a perfume counter girl in a department store before this movie, then she had a cameo in last days of disco, and that was that. chris eig-- something--mann was in all his other movies and he's had parts in law & order, etc.-- same as teh friend w/ the glasses i think i saw him in law and order once. the girl and whose house they hanged out (sally?) also worked a bit... i'm saying all this from memory.

I was mostly joking. I'm sure it's a good film, and earlier I missed the tagline, "Growing up is not a choice," which is intriguing. But admit it: if The Simpsons wanted to satirize the typical art-house foreign film, they would call it something like THE KID WITH A BIKE.

Hype is such a turnoff, but BIRDMAN really is an astonishing piece of work.

Oh I see. Haven't watched the Simpsons since the last century. But get it! I think it won at Cannes. Belgian film is on a roll lately. Ps- don't read any reviews which might spoil surprises, just trust me on this one.

just finished watching catch-22. it was good. at the same time funny, anxious, and depressing. the best thing about it was alan arkin. i agree with whoever said nichols was best at getting the best performances for his actors. well shot too, etc. but for me yossarian's performance stands out. good job piecing together the structure too. not the best movie ever, but i really liked it.

also tried to watch, for several days, godard's "pierrot le fou". fucking boring! it's like a little boy trying to show you how he's so clever. in the end i didn't finish the movie. anna karina is lovely to behold but all the bullshit scenes are too much. godard here did exactly the opposite of what sam fuller said cinema was (nice sam fuller cameo).

later i went to read to help me comprehend what my poor uneducated intellect had just missed and the wikipedia article said there was no script until a day before shooting, much was improvised, etc. OF COURSE! fucker... like a very expensive student film with good actors. i think it's a huge flop. no matter, he made alphaville too and that justifies him.

SCHULTZE GETS THE BLUES (Michael Schorr, 2003). Amazing! If you like quiet, subtle, deadpan comedies with a semi documentary flavor and very little dialogue like the stuff Kaurismaki or Jim Jarmusch like to make (okay, Jarmusch is more "talky", but still), or maybe something by Ozu, this is fantastic and superfunny. A lot of dolts commenting on the internet have found it "boring," because it's "slow" and "nothing happens" (lies, i say, a lot happens if you pay attention) so dolts be warned. But great movie.

you watched 155 NEW movies this past year? luckee...

i watched this very old thing last night and it was fantastic:

 


PORT OF SHADOWS (Marcel Carné, 1938). Great little French noir. Don't have a lot to say right now because I haven't had my stimulants yet. But really great.

Marcel Carne' did my favorite movie, Les Enfants du Paradis

The wife and I went to a late screening of this movie on Sunday night.
 

we had seen good reviews and I dig on Joaquin Phoenix, but HOLY FUCK was this just a pointless waste of EVERYTHING. we walked out 1 hour into it, no laughs at all from the crowd, and we were WASTED in preparation. This was as stupidly pointless as a movie can get. fuck Pynchon. His books suck ass, and so do movies based on his suck ass books. Thank Mario we went with a gift card, because I would have killed someone had I to pay $11 of my own money to see this doo doo. Plus hearing Joanna Newsome narrating it made me want to stab my own ears.


Watched this at home yesterday.
 

Of course not as good as Pitch Black, but far far better than the second Riddick movie with it's ponderous bullshit necromongers... I enjoyed it a lot. good middle of day violence while wasted on the stankiest skunk to come accross H town in months and months.

hell yes! i watched that not long ago. with effort, because it is a long movie and we had to spread it over 2 nights, but very rewarding. reads like a novel.

before this i had only known jacques prévert as a surrealist poet, but as a screenwriter he was awesome.

GONE GIRL - Could've been a much needed exploration of contemporary gender roles. But Fincher made a stupid thriller instead. Huge waste, although "well made." Dude can really light a scene.

Great Gatsby.. when i first watched it i found as terrible as the book.. then i saw it a second time and liked it a bit.. now having watched it a third time i dare say it was a great flick. But i tend to be biased towards Leo DiCaprio movies

THE BITTER TEARS OF PETRA VON KANT (Fassbinder, 1972). So fucking great. Yes it's a filmed play. Everything happens in one room. And it looks fantastic-- the room, the camera moves, the costumes, the mask-like faces, everything. Also great dialogue.

i wonder if it was autobiographical.
