Borzage's "Street Angel", excellent, Janet Gaynor especially good.

i saw some ~thillers~
The Woman
- this felt like a decent film ruined in the cutting room; soundtrack possibly worse than the crow ost.
A Lonely Place to DieKill ListThe VeteranThe Dead
- really enjoying these new uk genre movie vibes. none of these made any sense, but they made up for in viciousness, or nightmarish atmosphere, or both (kill list).
The Yellow Sea
- hong-jin na quickly approaching all-time status imo.

watched: robert siodmaks' menschen am sontag (1930) — his first film, with a script written by a very young billy wilder. naturalistic acting by non-professional actors, gentle humor and beautiful sunlit scenery. 4/5

Head is just a good movie full stop
This is not as much a 'good' movie but I'm definitely glad I saw it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr._Freedom

need to see more lubitsch
just watched: loulou (maurice pialat, 1980) — isabelle huppert and a hunky gerard d. seems to be about unconventional relationships, one's expectations clashing with another's. realistic acting, frank eroticism. very nice.

just heard: lulu — metallica and a hunky lou r. seems to be about unconventional relationships, one's expectations clashing with another's. realistic acting, frank eroticism. very nice.

chantal akerman: the new york films (early experimental shorts) — studies of space and movement that seem like studies for "jeanne dielman"birth (glazer) - expected to hate this after reading about the premise but found it pretty affectingplaytime - 2nd viewing, looked amazing on a decent hdtv. noticed lot of hidden gags i hadn't noticed before.

saw finisterrae while nodding off: i was dreaming up bits that could have been in, like at one point the 2 characters come across a white electric oven in the middle of the forest, one said "well go on, then" the other stuck his head in and looked around. then i woke up .
