What's The Best Film Most People Have Never Seen?

[Minnie_the_Minx]

To go more obscure, the Thai ghost film Nang Nak - fucking good stuff.

I've had that in my Amazon basket for ages. Still haven't bought it

I've seen Pasolini's 'Salo', but it's pretty gruesome. Some of the people who walked out were actually puking, or at least acting as though they might at any moment.

I saw that at the ICA a few years ago. The cinema was quite full at the beginning...

I must admit I only stayed to the end out of stubbornness.

You're right, there are.

My favourite is probably The enigma of Kasper Hauser. I love Bruno S, so I also really like Stroeszek. Aguirre is great too. I didn't like Woyzek much but I should probably give it another go. Kinski seemed miscast and he irritates me sometimes anyway.

These are pretty subjective judgements. Fitzcarraldo has charm for its crazy ambition.

Out of those, I have only seen Aguirre, and Fitzcarraldo! He has done a lot of films. I have seen loads of others. I watched Where Green Ants Dream the other day, which was pretty good.

Not seen that one. His documentaries are great too. Land of Silence and Darkness, about a deaf-blind woman, is really moving.

four times that night.

takes the rashomon idea of filming a story from several different perspectives, and wraps it round a dodgy date-rape plot...

also, the frightened woman

I am inspired, now. I am going to download a load of his films and have myself a Herzog-a-thon.

Where's Reno these days?

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

what?

It just keeps going to the back of the queue for some reason - probably 'cos I find cheaper DVDs.

In fact, I've not bought a DVD for over 6 months. Maybe even closer to a year

Good plan.

They're all worthwhile. Even his bad films fail in interesting ways.

Fair enough. Just interested to know what you think of it

 

[electrogirl]

Flight of the Concordes. I'm waiting for it to be cheaper.

Gilmore Girls

No point asking me even when I have watched it. I'm not into analysing films and talking about plots and characters etc. I either like it or I don't.

I'm not into arty films. They're too.... arty for me, too intelligent, go over my head etc.

 

[El Jefe]

go over my head etc.

that's cos you're a shortarse

Gilmore Girls

[Minnie_the_Minx]

I totally posted on the wrong thread. I meant to post on the amazon one.

Neither of those things are films and loads of people have seen them, therefore people are gonna think i'm a right div.

[quimcunx]

I haven't seen any of these films apart from ''I'll stick your mum in my pipe'' which was pretty gruesome and overlong by about half an hour. Not one I'd recommend.

 

[imposs1904]

John Duigan's coming of age film, 'Flirting'.

Sweet and funny film.

A mate has kept hold of my Belleville Rendezvous DVD for the past 12 months and the bugger hasn't even watched it.
