Re: Movie Questions Not Worth Creating Another Thread

Two quick questions about "Dekalog"... Do you have to watch them in order, and is it that religious? If you've seen this, do you have favorites?

Spokoj - 7.5/10
Fine acting. Natural. Like many European movies, they're about people, and their relationships with each other, themselves, the external world. Not crossing a finish line or making...

Do you think Terrence Malick is in the same league as Stanley Kubrick?

Re: Do you think Terrence Malick is in the same league as Stanley Kubr

I always thought Kubrick was more intellectual than visceral... He was my favorite director at 17, but I notice there's no warmth in his movies.


John Cassavetes was visceral.

Right, which is why I gave it another chance, especially since it's on TCM. I avoid movies on the internet because there's this habit of checking e-mail (or anything) but in general I'm cooling off...

I know they didn't write this, but the vocal is so amazing.. I probably listened to this song every day for a year around 2011 right before I went to Australia.

I think a lot of polls are skewed is because a lot of Eastern Europeans (and Spaniards) will vote for Dallas, not as huge as the Yao Ming bump.... I just check the Vegas odds. Boston was -6.5 and for...

Re: Any NBA Basketball fans?

Surprised to see those poll numbers above. I wonder if it's not who they think will win, but who they want to win. I think it's also recency bias with Dallas winning every series so far in upset,...

Re: Any NBA Basketball fans?

He'll be ready for Game 1, and Boston has every player available.

She relates all her movie reviews (many great movies!) to her own life and I'd recommend it.
