I still can't believe The Shining got nominated for a Razzie.

Kieslowski is such a cool guy. I need to watch more of him pronto.

Re: Cries&Whispers Top 100

Another good connection there. It's a pretty common aspect of war and combat in general. You can't remain human if you're going through that stuff. You also can't be judged as human either. This is...

Re: Cries&Whispers Top 100

Yeah, I agree it fits well with Wrester, RB and TD. It definitely works better as a personal portrait than a genre war film. The ending MUST be referring to James now that I think about it. It would...

First of all, these snippets are all really wonderfully written. Great job.



Can't even imagine it any other way. "I want to go someplace where I can be a... man." Great summary of what makes...

Re: Cries&Whispers Top 100

I probably should check it out since people call it one of the best novels of ever. I read The Road only after seeing the film, which I thought was excellent, but McCarthy's form blew me away. It's...

I can't help but agree with everything you've said. You've said it so well, and utterly exposed the emptiness in my initial claim. I bow to you, sir. That is, except for the bit about the dentist's...

I'm switching out Tokyo Story for Late Spring actually, now that I think about it!

I agree that it's better than Fargo. But I like the Coen films like Barton Fink, The Man Who Wasn't There, and...

QFT.

Late Spring is maybe the saddest of the Noriko trilogy for me. Also, Ozu actually moves the camera!



Absolutely disagree. NCfOM is pretty overrated for being totally out of the Coen's...

Re: Cries&Whispers Top 100

I need to watch it again soon and write an essay on it, maybe comparing it to Y tu mama. I now truly feel it is a defining work of the 2000s, my generation.

I'm not even going to pervert those two...

Re: Cries&Whispers Top 100

Best list I've seen on here.

In the Mood for Love - god, god yes. It would be in my top 50 at least though. Cache is definitely a film I need to revisit. I remember liking it. I totally agree...
