Re: Thief's Monthly Movie Loot - 2021 Edition

Brief comments as I see you've already moved on to 2022 (and rightly so).

Re: Thief's Monthly Movie Loot - 2021 Edition

Only seen three of the latest seven. Enjoyed aspects of Under The Skin, certainly a film that gets under the skin imo with some quite striking imagery and a disturbingly hypnotic soundscape, and have...

Re: Thief's Monthly Movie Loot - 2021 Edition

I'm yet to see An Autumn Afternoon, no doubts I'll get round to it at some point and no doubts it'll be fairly solid like just about every other Ozu I've seen. I would've almost certainly seen The...

Re: Thief's Monthly Movie Loot - 2021 Edition

Lots I don't think I've ever seen in the three months or so since I last commented (:eek: time flies) so I'll just restrict myself to those I'm sure I have.

Mulholland Drive is pretty darn good...

If you've not yet seen his Les enfants du paradis then I'd go that one, I'd hope both that and Le Jour Se Lève might make the upcoming countdown. If you have then I'd give Hôtel du Nord a look.

Catch-up time.

I've yet to see an Ozu work that I didn't at least like, Tokyo Story would definitely be my favourite of his later output that I've seen thus far. Been a number of years since I...

Funnily enough I've watched a few Romanian fillums just recently.

Personally I prefer Ikiru, Seven Samurai, The Bad Sleep Well, Yojimbo, Sanjuro and High And Low from him over Ran but that's just me and there's plenty think otherwise.

Re: Thief's Monthly Movie Loot - 2021 Edition

The Passion Of Joan Of Arc is brilliant imo, one of those rare 10/10s and #1 on my pre-1930 ballot. I gave Crawl a pretty similar rating to you, a decent offering of its type that was an enjoyable...

Re: Thief's Monthly Movie Loot - 2021 Edition

It's good that your categories give you a nice cross-section of cinema during the month :up:

I rated Grand Hotel a little higher than you but wouldn't disagree with any of your remarks about it....
