I have never see a single Todd Haynes film. But I know at least two people who have slept with him!

I still prefer Carol Burnett's Mildred Fierce.

ahahahahahahahaha watching this now, amazing

you have to forgive me (surm), Friday, 12 February 2010 03:56 (sixteen years ago)

but that's NOT the Mildred Fierce sketch I saw! it was done later, a pretty close parody of the Crawford movie.

Is it fucked up that I have always liked the name Veda because of this movie?

ô_o (Nicole), Friday, 12 February 2010 04:36 (sixteen years ago)

no way, it's a good name

you have to forgive me (surm), Friday, 12 February 2010 06:15 (sixteen years ago)

yeah, it's a pretty name.

by another name (amateurist), Friday, 12 February 2010 07:14 (sixteen years ago)

wow, this sounds good.

love most of this guy's stuff, Poison excepted.
I agree with this, although I still have not seen 'I'm Not There.'
'Safe' is one of my favourite movies.

derrrick, Friday, 12 February 2010 10:02 (sixteen years ago)

up until the mention of 'I'm Not There' here I had been reading today's discussion thinking of Todd Phillips and being seriously confused.

FC Tom Tomsk Club (Merdeyeux), Friday, 12 February 2010 11:58 (sixteen years ago)

that Mildred Fierce thing reminded me of this, which I hope everyone has seen:

the beginning of this thread is so funny

plax (ico), Sunday, 2 January 2011 19:19 (fifteen years ago)

ive never seen the velvet goldmine but ppl think it sucks right? i pretty much hate all of that glam rock carry-on so i dont think i could handle it if it was also rubbishy. i pretty much love all his other ones tho, i'm not there is so good, dying for mildred pierce. looks kindof straightforward for him in the trailers tho, i thought it was supposed to be 2010 tho, i mean if it hasnt been on already then obv. that partic. bird has flown.

plax (ico), Sunday, 2 January 2011 19:21 (fifteen years ago)

velvet goldmine has a dedicated fanbase

saw it again a couple years ago and really enjoyed it, tho i would've preferred a fake marc bolan biopic to a fake bowie biopic.

I don't like glam rock, but I like VG (except for the Bale reporter stuff).

Haven't seen Safe in almost exactly twenty years; I checked the Blu-Ray out of the library. In certain shots Moore looks like the alien from the Sigourney Weaver flicks.

The only element that's didactic is the synth score.

Much like Safe:

if safe were made today -- and set in the present day, or even in the very recent past -- i'm sure the governing metaphor would have to do with the internet and surveillance.

I dunno. (amateurist), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 00:15 (eleven years ago)

in fact, i think the remake with kristen wiig is about precisely that.

I hope he hasn't done something too conventional. I prefer him a bit wilder.

the increasing costive borborygmi (Dr Morbius), Sunday, 17 May 2015 14:25 (eleven years ago)

As a snob who couldn't care less for Bob Dylan, and who pretty much discards a filmmaker when oscar likes him, is it worth diving into his films?

Frederik B, Sunday, 17 May 2015 14:29 (eleven years ago)

not sure i'd rank anyone ahead of him as the best American narrative filmmaker of the last 20-25 years (Spielberg is in the ballpark)

the increasing costive borborygmi (Dr Morbius), Sunday, 17 May 2015 15:19 (eleven years ago)

I'd agree with that. Frederik, I'm pretty sure you'd love Safe.

Acting Crazy (Instrumental) (jed_), Sunday, 17 May 2015 16:07 (eleven years ago)

safe is the one

Superstar
Velvet Goldmine
I'm Not There
Far From Heaven
