A CLOCKWORK ORANGE

I had never seen this and I watched the last twenty minutes stoned. It blew my mind.

Cinema: Jeanne Dielman, the print ws 20 mins shorter (very naughty of the NFT to charge the same price as advertised beforehand) so it had a cpl of crude cuts in what ws, at nearly three and a half hours, some of the best time I could've spent at the cinema. Incredibly moving, and very funny (the 'second day' conversation between mother and son ws one of the funnies exchanges ever); the sounds coming out of that kitchen were quite punchy, quite musical.

DVD (library rent): Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, X-Men 3, The Singing Detective (bizarre that Potter's TV series got a re-make for the big screen), Bicycle Thieves.

Stranger Than Fiction - pretty ok! Emma Thompson was funnier than Will Ferrell.
Casino Royale - fun fun fucking fun! My mom almost had a heart-attack during parkour-esque foot chase.
RV - what can I say, Sunday afternoon + cable tv.

The Host isn't playing anywhere near here which is gay because they had a review in the paper.

Got a couple of classic buster keaton movies for £2 each in the bargain CD shop - "steamboat bill jr" and "the general" - print quality OK in the former, though it ends rather abruptly, a bit soft/blurry in the latter. Showed them to the kid, who fucking loved them. I put Steamboad Bill jr on, and b/c he's into thunderbirds & dr who he asks "are there any disasters in this?" Oh yeah, I said, just wait and see. The bit where keaton inspects the boat for the first time, throws the lifebelt into the water and it sinks = just about the funniest thing ever. I'll have to see if I can get a better print of "The General"

Big movie weekend for me!:

Bill Plympton's Mutant Aliens - incredible, hilarious.

― nickalicious, Thursday, 29 March 2007 21:17 (nineteen years ago)

Who do I recommend Mutant Aliens to?

YOU.

― nickalicious, Thursday, 29 March 2007 21:19 (nineteen years ago)

I've been sick so it's shitty cable flicks time:
16 Blocks - decent acting/stache from B Willis, but cop flick's script was showing
Pretty Persuasion - ridiculous lesbianish "Cruel Intentions" rip-off with great James Woods getting caught masturbating scene, fell alseep before ending
Batman Begins - Only caught bits, good "Elektra Assassin" rips, LSD sub plot, Millerish yuppie satire

― sexyDancer, Thursday, 29 March 2007 21:26 (nineteen years ago)

high noon at AFI silver. first time seeing it on a big screen!

i've thought, both times i've seen it, that the wife shouldn't [spoiler alerrrrt] get off the train.

― ghost rider, Sunday, 1 April 2007 23:28 (nineteen years ago)

oh fuck that button

― ghost rider, Sunday, 1 April 2007 23:28 (nineteen years ago)

i am watching half nelson and i want ryan gosling to stop touching his fucking face

dr morbius did you like offside? i thought it was really good.

― s1ocki, Monday, 2 April 2007 05:22 (nineteen years ago)

I did... a little off-the-cuff and light (stylewise), but very touching.

Euphoria
Sacco and Vanzetti (a new doc)
Double or Nothing (Bing Crosby-Martha Raye - print broke 3 times)
Sweater Girl
Reprise
The Mirror (Panahi)

James Cagney, John Garfield and about 500 gangster films from the '30s could certainly use Miller's Crossing as their prison bitch.

― Dr Morbius, Monday, 2 April 2007 13:27 (nineteen years ago)

btw, the aforementioned Muriel by Resnais is not only new to disc but begins a week's run at MoMA on Friday. And tonight begins a cross-section of Fassbinder.

― Dr Morbius, Monday, 2 April 2007 13:31 (nineteen years ago)

haha ok i'm not going to rise to the bait and defend miller's crossing, but it's a hammett homage, not just a gangster picture.

― ghost rider, Monday, 2 April 2007 13:42 (nineteen years ago)

Don't worry, it's Ian I'm going to lecture on this!

― Dr Morbius, Monday, 2 April 2007 13:46 (nineteen years ago)

{i]Wild Reeds
The Last Emperor[/i] (zzzzz....)

Got [i]Love Me Or Leave Me[/i} waiting at home, whose title describes my usual reaction to Doris Day.

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Monday, 2 April 2007 14:12 (nineteen years ago)

I did... a little off-the-cuff and light (stylewise), but very touching.

yeah, but what i really liked about it was how it's got this light touch all the way through until that scene at the end where the central character's motivations suddenly become clear and it kind of changes everything. such a perfectly-struck chord.

― s1ocki, Monday, 2 April 2007 14:48 (nineteen years ago)

has anyone seen this "Air Guitar Nation" documentary? i kind of want to

i saw the zidane film on thursday (for freee yaay at a really nice theatre!) - http://www.zidane-themovie.com/index2.htm - it was totally great, but that site makes it look like it'll be something else. it's 90 min of a soccer game but with cameras and sound focused on zidane, plus some subtitles from an interview with him and a short montage of news footage. in a way it reminded me of that michael snow film "wavelength," which i love, but with more going on.

LOVE AND DEATH
JOE (1970'S HIPPIE KILLING THING)
