There is also a famous scene of married people doing something that I don’t think has been mentioned yet.

Yeah, but we're all firmly against being shown sex scenes without our consent now

The film is dealing with a heavy subject (and Sutherland does his best), but it's more interested in throwing up chic enigmas than dealing with the emotional ramifications of that subject.

TIL the tide has very much turned against Don’t Look Now. How annoying

agreed... idk i don't find that movie nihilistic at all

I still have a week to watch Come and See...but will I? Stay tuned. Barring that....might be that guy and go for Jaws

The Man Who Fell to Earth is more legit concerned with chic enigmas, i.e. "How good will David Bowie look shirtless in bed?"

Or it's dealing with a highly charged subject in a way you aren't expecting.

the chic enigma that is death

I can't get this phrase out of my head
Austin Film Society is running Don't Look Now this week...never been a huge fan of it but trying to decide if I should give it a re-view or not..sometimes actually seeing something in a theater totally changes how I feel about it.

Cross-posted from the John Wayne thread:
Watching Rio Bravo again (fourth time?), I'm struck by John Wayne's beautiful serenity. He's always observing the other characters, as an actor and as Chance. He's relaxed but wary. His best performance.

Yes.

His relationship with Angie Dickinson as Feathers is kind of charming too, and doesn’t approach the crepeyness of other such parings of aging male stars with younger actresses.

Well, he ceded space to her: it's understood she has her own thing going on, and Chance respects it.

I can post it tomorrow if you want, so long as I get to accidentally leave off There Will Be Blood.
