That's 3 slots better than my pick from the 24th. Not too shabby.

Oh well. I liked it and it wasn't my last pick, ueno, if it's of any consolation.

That is correct. I saved The Long Goodbye for last because it's the one I've wanted to see the longest (no pun intended). I'm pulling a Vanessa Williams, in other words (cheesy joke intended).

Glad you like it. An old co-worker had it as her MySpace signature and I've remembered it ever since. Blaise Pascal said it, I believe.

I probably twisted the knife a bit too much myself, didn't...

Good point, and there really isn't any levity, is there? I agree about its similarities to The Whisperers in this regard, but that movie does have some at the end. Where could La Verite have added...

La Verite - 2.5

This is an okay legal drama that I ultimately admired more than I enjoyed. I do like the flashback structure and believe that each one is well-timed and never negatively affected...

One of Wall Street's most memorable quotes is "the main thing about money, Bud, is that it makes you do things you don't want to do." While Lou is referring to those who have...

BlacKKKlansman - 4

This isn't my favorite Spike Lee movie - that honor goes to Do The Right Thing - but it's his most fun movie, slightly edging out Inside Man in that regard. The extraordinary,...

Sundays and Cybele - 4

I really enjoyed this anti-war and psychological drama. For starters, I appreciate how natural it seems. The acting is uniformly strong, but most importantly, I never...

That's pretty cool. I hope your experience was better than Júlio's in the movie!
I'm a lifelong suburbanite and have never lived in a major city, so I'm jealous. Who knows, maybe someday.

Ah, gotcha. At this point, I'm just going to assume that a "do you mind if we dance with your dates?" moment a la Animal House happened and not worry about it any more.

That's pretty cool that you found that version. Could you explain, then, what happened between the confrontation at the dance hall and the awkwardly silent departure afterwards?

Haha, you did! I promise I didn't copy that from your review.

But yeah, I enjoyed it, and besides the skeezy stuff with the sister, it's relatively tame compared to other taboo-heavy movies I've...
