rented from screenselect, tis the way forward! i'm liking it so far, the start seems pretty confusing and now it's just some kind of bizarre religious thing set around the time of the american depression i think, 30s ish. it's got good characters and i'm still not entirely sure what's going on, but i want to
 
Legend of The Surami Fortress. And tonight, should I not go to bed too early, I shall make a point of watching my new copy of I am Cuba.
 
Watched "The I Inside" tonight. Not too bad but I need to watch it again to understand the ending properly as it was quite hard to follow.
Not as good as The Butterfly Effect which had similar themes.
 
Once Upon a Time in America 229 min (2003 restored director's cut) - Really enjoyable movie but a fucking long haul at times :)
 
I watched Good Bye Lenin! earlier today and liked it, although the plot was kind of silly, and started to watch Spring Hopes but it was horrible and I turned it off. I might give it another chance later on.
 
The Leader, his Driver, and the Driver's Wife

Nick Broomfield Documentary about Eugene Terre Blanche. Im not a huge fan of Broomfield but this was ok. ETB is a fucking arse.

LOL :D I started watching this at the weekend, its the televisual equivalent of heroin, I did about ten episodes over two days, apart from the bits with "Terrorist Mom" who looks like Michael Jackson :D , had to fast forward them.
 
Grosse Pointe Blank

Thinly veiled social satire masquerading as a coming-to-terms-with-growing-up high school reunion movie. It's American, but not as we know it, with cool-as-fuck(ish) music (well, this is America) and a top performance from John Cusack as a hired killer forced to attend his reunion while attempting to avoid the feds and a contract on his life. Even Minnie Driver exudes a certain charm in one of her least annoyign roles to date. Clash fan Cusack drafted Joe Strummer for the soundtrack, which features a slew of 'alternative' hits from the 80s. A refreshing antidote to the 80s 'brat pack', file alongside 'Heathers' and 'Better Off Dead'. :cool: 6/10
 
Gods and Monsters - story of James Whale (the director not that beardie bloke).

The film itself was ok - but what made it special for me was Ian McKellen. He is a phenomenal actor. One of the best imo. :cool:
 
just skim watched dans ma peau (in my skin).

didn't get it.


other recent ones have been girl (dominique swain) which was shit and 2 days in the valley (from 1996) which was really good, i was expecting smut and nothing but, turns out its smart and the smut is tasteful.
 
-The Maltese Falcon.
not a b&w-fan, so didn't expect much, but Bogart's the man- the archetypal cool film noir hero...respect :cool:
 
Another Thin Man with William Powell and Myrna Loy.

you really should check out some more b & w movies, Maya.

yeah...i had a massive "arty" film-period in my mid-teens, so got a bit of an "overkill-effect" of all things b&w after that...perhaps time again to explore a bit more & deeper...(i'm on the case!) :D :oops:
