I saw "God Help The Girl" recently as well, and I am only aware of B&S by name. So...it was alright, nothing I'm gushing over. Research, aka wikipedia, shows me it's some long standing project that ended up having a movie as well. Definitely liked some of the songs, but not all of them.

"the pervert's guide to ideology" featuring slavoj zizek

 


A M A Z I N G ! ! !

all the answers you wanted to get and then some. (of course it's just a beginning, but still…)

deliciously enjoyable. will blow your mind repeatedly. you will laugh and laugh and laugh. sit through the credits!!

also recently, after seeing richard stanley in the jodorowski documentary, i rewatched

HARDWARE

 


yes, quite derivative, borrows *a lot* from 70's-80's SF (from luke's mechanical hand to the terminator to the monster in the spaceship like alien to a look like mad max), so it's quite a pastiche, but it still keeps a freshness and energy and a certain gallows humor that set it apart. after decades of lawyerly disputes it's been on blu-ray for a few years now (and it still looks as grainy as fuck ha ha ha).

last--

EUROPA EUROPA

 


some people (including the old-ass trailer) will make you believe this is a bleak sad fucking movie, and it a way it is, but it is also fucking hilarious at the same time and in spite of the bleakness we couldn't stop laughing-- well of course we did eventually but much of it is funny.

i popped my agnieszka holland cherry with "in darkness" recently, and looking back at her roots she does not disappoint.

if you dig deeper you'll discover she's also directed episodes of "the wire", "the killing" and "treme" (plus some other tv shit i haven't seen). so i "knew" her after all. check her out!

Slavoj Zizek is a cunt, a really awful person in a lot of ways, and almost always completely full of shit.

So I'm sure he comes across quite well in a film he helped make.

i don't know him personally, but this movie is really good, even if he sniffles like crazy while he's talking.

He's a good showman. Not that he fakes his eccentricities but he definitely knows how to use them to enhance his cult following. He can be laugh out loud funny but I don't take his actual ideas seriously at all. Politically, I find him completely irrelevant. Don't know about him being an awful person, though. A lot of his more controversial opinions are, I'm sure, really just there to provoke liberals - which comes across as more lazy than anything else.

i don't know if he was talking about this:

http://www.slate.com/blogs/browbeat/...man_video.html

in that controversy, i totally side with zizek haaa haaa haaaa

ps the film was really great and highly entertaining and at times superfunny. i'm going to re-watch it.

repeated genocide denial is not "practical". actually it is very "theoretical" because he presents conspiracy "theories" created by war criminals as 'facts'
personally i'd rather he talk about movies because i'm never going to accept the lefty equivalent of ernst zundel as a good source of info on world events.

jonathan glazer's

UNDER THE SKIN

 


fantastic movie! excellent in every way. superb camera work and editing and great performance by scarlett. great soundtrack. my only complaint would be the nearly impossible to understand scottish accents, but eh-- it's a film of few words anyway-- moods are more important here. this movie is stylish as fuck.

extra bonus if you like scarlett, because you get to stare & stare at her until you have memorized every aspect of her face and many of her body as well-- quite the scopophiliac's delight.

i understand this is a distant adaptation of a dutch novel, but having read now a synopsis of the book this seems to me a much better story purged of the blatant didacticism of the source material.

my only problem here is with an underlying gender narrative that i won't discuss in this post but maybe another time if people are willing to handle total and absolute spoilers.

Always a bit of a difficult one to watch due to the historical fact to it

The Departed was on last night and I couldn't stop watching it. Its not necessarily the best film by any of the actors in it, and yet, I really dig this flick. I also watched the last hour of The Shawshank Redemption and damn it, I was crying (happy tears) at the end like I ALWAYS DO for that damned movie, even in the fucking 8th grade watching it at school!!

@tw2113- i had to look upthe magdalene sisters-- wow! DAMN! i guess i understand now the story behind "philomena" but i didn't know it was such widespread sadism. thanks for the mention i'll check it out some day (some day when i want to get depressed!-- but seriously…)

===

most recently watched--

don jon- starts like a comedy, and it gets progressively serious. i liked the funny parts better because they were more skilfully done; near the end the drama gets a little obvious, but then it's a nice little fable "for the kids", very watchable overall, not the greatest but not a waste of time either. check it out.

beyond outrage - i didn't realize this was the sequel to "outrage" so i didn't get everything until the end but beat takeshi is always awesome so now i'll have to go in reverse. watch "outrage" first!

the element of crime - lars von trier's first feature, all the way from back in the 80s! pretty great for its time, you'll see a lot of his obsessions on display here (hypnosis, water, possession, decay, experimental elements within conventional narratives, etc.). i didn't know his work went so far back, this predates "europa" by 5 or 6 years.

throne of blood - macbeth by kurosawa! what more can i say? amazing.

samurai assassin - this was a pretty fucking crummy dvd transfer with horrible subtitles and i couldn't watch it for very long. maybe i missed out, maybe i missed out on some heavy sleep.

joe - two good things here: 1) david gordon green going back to his southern roots (e.g. "george washington"), and 2) nicolas cage in a non-cartoony, non-blockbuster role. yes, he's still himself, but this time his acting fits the part and it's a pretty great movie especially if you like gritty redneck melodramas like "winter's bone" only lots funnier. check it. can get a little brutal but great movie overall.
