the pilot for Hung is kind of my 2nd favorite Payne flick after Election

i actually like barcelona a lot, possibly more than metropolitan. sideways is possibly the only time my objection to a movie has been I Hate These Characters And Hope They Die. like, not the only time that's ever happened, but the only time it was a problem. i dunno.
the characters in the descendants are white because they are the titular descendants of missionaries, apparently, not that i know who else is in it or if they're unwhite or played by rob schneider or what.

Just noticed that there's a screening of Nebraska here in a couple of weeks, with Payne introducing. It looks a little like The Straight Story from reading a description.

He sure does like road trip movies, doesn't he? Skeptical of this, because I only really like his first two movies. But I do like Bruce Dern, so maybe...

meh, a real mixed bag. Good performances (Stacy Keach!); better than About Schmidt, at least.
People are going overboard w/ the "condescending" stuff tho; I'm sure there's human waste like this on display on the Great Plains. And in Jersey.
― eclectic husbandry (Dr Morbius), Friday, 15 November 2013 03:34 (ten years ago) link
I don't bet the naysayers would disagree. It's just: do they belong in movies?
― midnight outdoor nude frolic up north goes south (Eric H.), Friday, 15 November 2013 11:50 (ten years ago) link
Of course they do. I don't think Payne hates Nebraskans more than Altman hates Nasvillians.
Not to mention a crtic I respect writing that Dern's character has Alzheimers when um, he is explicitly described as not having it.
"He believes what people tell him" has metaphorical heft too, I think.
― eclectic husbandry (Dr Morbius), Friday, 15 November 2013 12:22 (ten years ago) link
Oh for sure I'm going into this with reasonably high hopes that this will finally be the Payne movie that brings him back to his '90s greatness. But any comparisons to that piece of shit About Schmidt, even favorable against it, don't bode well.

Election is as smarmy in its own way as anything he's done since.

As usual there isn't a Payne film the NYT won't love or compare to Sturges.

Election is the good kind of smarmy tho; straight satire without pretense to sympathy.

God, that movie is genuinely merciless.
