i've probably watched about twentyfive Kurosawa films and I think Ikiru and Seven Samurai are tops for me. Rashomon, Sanjuro, Yojimbo, Hidden Fortress, all the genre flicks are great but Seven Samurai was the first ART movie I ever saw to leave a heavy imprint on my mind. I catch it about once every two years.

its a complete mess of a movie iirc but has its moments. your mileage will depend on how much you dig Zappa and OTT experimental/psychedelic film effects.

I had a jones to watch it and was bummed when it was pulled. Wound up buying it today, so I guess their ploy worked.

they just released Louie on DVD so not surprising that they pulled it

watched Billion Dollar Brain the other night, pretty stupid but awfully fun. Also just learned that there is a twilight parody streaming, called (wait for it) Taintlight.

watching more older ozon -- Water Drops on Burning Rocks is a pretty fun/dark fassbinder homage (& based on a short story by him); Ludivine Sagnier (same girl from Swimming Pool) is just crazily gorgeous

Watched Night Moves last night. Good stuff. Pros: 70s Hackman in troubled gumshoe, self-aware noir mode ("Who do you think you are, Sam Spade?"), great pacing, slew of great/weird scenes, great dialogue, hyper James Woods as comically suspicious mechanic, and more. Cons: the actual mystery kind of dud, but arguably that's the idea.

Small Town Gay Bar and Before Stonewall both so, so good! And both on instant! WATCH THEM, WATCH THEM NOW!

I watched a fairly good documentary this weekend about Bernie Worrell called Stranger: Bernie Worrell on Earth. Lots of synth freakouts to enjoy.

Cop Land. This sat on my to-see list for over a decade, finally NFWId it last weekend. Love love LOVED it. Seems like the world was meh about this film? Maybe the ridiculously starry cast was too distracting? This was James Mangold's 2nd film and it has the feel of a big-ass second novel where a young writer just fuckin' GOES FOR IT.

― max, Monday, 8 August 2011 17:49 (thirteen years ago) link
I think general consensus was that there was a lot of scenery chewing. Honestly I can't remember anything about the movie at this point.
