Hm, too bad that version of Paisa is without subtitles. So I won't get much out of it. I'll just hope for Criteron or Masters of Cinema (They'd go release more Rosselini this year if I'm correct) to release it soon. I'm going after Germany Year Zero soon. Thanks for the info, Satenza! Yesterday I've seen The Devil's Rejects which was so unbelievably cool! Go see it, if you like violence and sadism a lot. :D

I heard the contribution of Mr Hahn is next to nothing on this album. I should've listened to it today, but I just couldn't put myself to it. I'm sorry. Maybe later this week. Although I doubt it. Sorry. I've got nothing against it by the way.

Fracture (2007) Not too much. I don't really have an opinion on it. Nice to catch inbetween the good movies, but a little less than the average movie that 'catch in between the good movies'. Asphalt (1929) At the end of the silent era there's still a few gems left. The early talkies can't compete with the newest silents. it's mainly style over substance, but that doesn't spoil the fun. Especially the openingsscenes (Traffic, all this shot at the UFA studios, lol) and the scenes where Betty Amann is seducing Gustav Fr̮̦̉̉lich are great. Notable is also the camera that so freely moves around the sets. There's also a good preformance from Gustav Fr̮̦̉̉lich (Metropolos) and Betty Amann is cute as hell. Recomended for those interested in early German cinema and the influences of it on Hollywood.

Hah, I never heard of it. But I looked at some vids on youtube, and I must say that looked quite impressive. I never done it, don't think I would bevery good at it either. :P But looks cool.

Don't be ashamed of yourself, and let yourself go. Put off the most ridiculous moves, but be confident and well aware that you can't dance and you'll pull trough. Unless you're with some kind of special dancing group, it's likely they won't appreciate the joke.

Fantastic. Complete 60 minute concert!

Who wouldn't be inspired by just looking at Ingrid Bergman to make such a beautiful film? :) However i do prefer Paisa to any other of Rossellini works. Have you seen this one? I'd love to see Paisan, since I've seen that footage from Il mio viaggio in Italia, I'm very curious. But I can't find it on DVD. I'm looking for Germany Year Zero (found that one though) and Stromboli as well. I've got way too less Rosselini. Which ones do you reocommend? I've only got Roma, Citta Aperta and Francesco. Tsubaki Sanjuro Follow up to Yojimbo. And you can put it on whenever you want really. Actionpacked, cool twists and a lot of humor. I prefer Yojimbo though. Vozvrashcheniye wanted to see this for a while, and this morning I finally got around to it. And it was pretty good. It really looked amazing, and time past pretty quickly. But emotionally it didn't do me that much, unfortunuatly. Still it's a great debute and I can't wait for his next movie (which is going to premiere in cannes this year). It's such a shame that the young actor (16 years old) who played Andrei died a day before the premiere of this movie. :(

So, is this something serious. Or is it a joke? I'm not really into magic, and I kind of had to laugh. I didn't know Wizzards really excisted. -
Ah, cool, thanks Fat slug! I'll have a look at them tomorrow! :)

Ever saw the movie Falling Down, oh you really should. :P I've got the same thing sometimes. Most of the time I'm quite easy, not aggrevated 1,2,3. But sometimes, people just get up the worst in me. And I'm having a very, very hard time to keep myself controlled, and sometimes, but rarely, I flip. Never with violene though (well, one or two times about 5 years ago). When I was younger I used to have some problems with my father as well. But that's settled too.

Hell, even Karl Marx is on my side (althoug he's taken a little bit out of context. :P), I can't be wrong! :)

I think you're right Suzi. But I'll just go for Red Eye. Although that seems wrong.

It's just very annoying that every time you open a topic, no matter what it's about Halo or Jesus, people are getting so hostile towards each other. Even when discussion isn't asked for. It's not so much the point that they're having a discussion, it's more that they're provoking arguements in such a hostile way that it can never result in something positive. People don't listen to each other. People mainly talk past eachother. When somebody is saying something, the other people just quickly reads the text, pulls out the negative things, googles for a solution and the first thing he sees he just copy pastes. They're not interested in what somebody else has got to say, they just interested in forcefully shove their opinions down somebodies throat. Then there's also the fact that almost nobody that can admitt that they're just wrong. Everybody always needs to have the last word. It's so annoying. Besides, the off topic forum is for having fun as well, in my eyes. And in the topics where you can just have a laugh all these arguements pop up as well. Look at that thread about the guy coming back here after a couple of years. Out of nothing this arguement stats, nobody asked for it, nor is it entertaining. It's just pathetic namecalling. In that thread you also say that Scapeboard was full of arguements and the moderation was more 'relaxed'. But if you looked back on Scapeboard, people didn't act like they are doing now. Nobody was fighting over nothing like this. It was more fun, people had a little more respect for eachother. And THAT'S why the moderation was more 'relaxed'.

Francesco, Guillare di Dio Oh, boy. What a fantastic film. Everything is so calm, peacefull and especially innocent. I don't think I've ever seen something this pure on celluloid. Fantastic.

No, of course it wasn't. :P But they had a little bit more hope, which is understandable. Tarantino is one of the major 'brands' in cinema since the 90s. Success almost guaranteed. I wonder what they're going to do with the DVD release though. Will it be seperated outside the USA as well? Will the fake trailers be available as an extra? Will they jus release seperate?Or will they go for two seperate releases first and later the 'real' version?
-
Yea, it's not for Tarantino/Rodriguez to say. The weinsteins decided not to release it as it's suposed to be because the concept of Grindhouse cinema isn't as well known in Europe as in America. Of course they did it to earn an extra buck. But the movie kind of flopped in America as well, so they decided to split it up there as well. I don't think I'm going to pay for it, I'll go against my principles and just download it.

Yesterday I was all settled in for a documentary afternoon with Kenji Mizoguchi: The Life of a Film Director (2.5 hours!) and a two hour video interview Akira Kurosawa: My Life in Cinema, but just as I was an hour into The Life of a Director the doorbell rang. :x A friend, she was bored so decided to drop by (hey, thanks!), and she also decided to force me to watch my own Ozon movies.. So I had to see Sous le Sable, with that wretched b*tch Charlotte Rampling. Oh, I hate her so much. She is the most annoying actress out there, together with Meryl Streep and Isabelle Huppert. But the movie wasn't all that annoying, but not the masterpiece everybody claims it to be. After that I was out of my element, and didn't feel like seeing the documentaries anymore, so I saw Bob Dylan: No Direction Home by Scorsese again, it was because I saw Don't look back recentely and listened to his Albert Hall preformance from '66 a lot. And No Direction Home covers a big part of that period as well. And it was still a very interesting look. Although I don't really like Joan Baez. After that I saw La Strada again which is such a fantastic adventure. Anthony Quinn and Giulieta Masina are so well cast. His such a big brute, and she is so small and refined. Then there's the music of Nina Rota, as in almost every Fellini. I loved it. And after that I saw Fast Company which I had also seen before, but this time I watched with Audio Comentary, and it was a very interesting 90 minutes. Cronenberg's voice is a bit boring, but you'll get used to that after a while. Very imformative, and a must have for fans of Cronenberg, or people who care a lot about (drag)racing.

'might be', it's certainly split. Too bad, Matt.
