What you been watching? I watched this last night. I found the plot very hard to follow and the acting subpar!

Have you tried Herbie the Love Bug Universe?

    I lost interest after Herbie lost the infinity lugs

        Black Leather Jacket

        This is a cool little documentary based on a book by music legend Mick Farren

        With David Lynch’s passing there was a lot of online movie chatter and I realized I’d missed some Lynch/Lunch adjacent films - hadn’t seen Straight Story or his brother’s movie Lucky - both with H Dean Stanton. Both good. Recommended for a slow night when you want to contemplate your impending (or current) old age


        A really fun film about making films directed by and starring, as the director, Francois Truffaut. One of the best in the genre.

        Watched They Live a few night ago. Fun little movie, recognised loads of quotes from it.


        Kept me engaged i can't sit thru anything over 90 min. Khrushchev offered some comic relief at times.

        Now fielding suggestions for something less heady.

            finally watched john huston's wise blood last night

              Something Wild by Jonathan Demme! Great soundtrack and Su Tissue cameo

              hotsounds the gonga the gorilla bit in that kills me everytime

                [ rewatched california split recently love it so much

                  went and saw Phantom of the Paradise tonight at the Clinton St Theatre. Got me to thinking not enough front people do the funky chicken on stage

                    Recent Viewings:

                    Without Pity (Lattuada, '48): Italian Post-War Noir. Good cast, script by Fellini. Not outstanding but everyone involved went on to do bigger things together. Gotta give them some leeway, everything was still literally rubble.

                    Hundreds of Beavers (Cheslik, '22): Fuck'n great. I had a smile on my face the entire time. A+ Live Action Cartoon. Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin would be proud.

                    The Rules of the Game (Renoir, '39): People tell me this is one of the greatest movies ever, but I didnt get it.

                    Black Gravel (Kautner, '61): Killer Germen Noir. Might be bleak but it looks great! Worth a watch.

                    Toccata for Toy Trains (Eames, '57): A short film about toy trains made by the eames chair people.

                    Randall went and saw Phantom of the Paradise tonight at the Clinton St Theatre

                    After much deliberation I think I prefer THE APPLE over Phantom of the Paradise

                        Just rewatched Europa by Lars Von Trier. He came in swinging early in his career. Use of rear projection and other innovative camera work and elaborate staging made it a really satisfying film to revisit. Intense! Decadent! Breathtaking!
