Re: What are you watching tonight?
After admiring Tree of Life I'm looking forward ro catching up on Terrence Malick's complete list... Saw half of Thin Red Line last week until the DVD jammed. LF have just said they are dispatching new copy. and today watched Badlands which i thought was excellent.
Martin Sheen outstanding as murderous semi- sociopath in love with Cissy Spacek (also outstanding). Story take its time unfolding but works really well. Is very beautifully shot, has a great soundtrack, uses V/O a lot, has complex protagonists (maybe its best achievement) who seem to exist in a kind of moral vacuum.
It has, i am beginning to recognise, all the hallmarks that a Malick film has had from the beginning. Outstanding talent. Looking forward to the next. Just added Days of Heaven to the list...

Days of Heaven is basically agriculture porn.

The editing also resulted in many of the well-known cast members being on screen for only a brief period: for example, John Travolta and George Clooney's appearances are little more than cameos, yet Clooney's name appears prominently in the marketing of the movie. The unfinished film was screened for the New York press on December 1998 and Brody attended a screening to find that his originally significant role, "to carry the movie", as he put it, had been reduced to two lines and approximately five minutes of screen time. On April 15, 2001, an interview with Brody revealed that he was still upset over the removal of his work. He expressed his opinions in an interview with the London newspaper The Independent:
"I was so focused and professional, I gave everything to it, and then to not receive everything ... in terms of witnessing my own work. It was extremely unpleasant because I'd already begun the press for a film that I wasn't really in. Terry obviously changed the entire concept of the film. I had never experienced anything like that... You know the expression 'Don't believe the hype'? Well, you shouldn't."

I am.Certainly right enough to be able to see that Jim Moir is the most talent-free tosser ever to have fooled a chunk of the public with his emporer's-new-clothes brand of 'humour' anyway.Annoyed Grunt wrote:Erm, I'm not....he might be though.superjohnmcginlay wrote:You 2 are not right in t'head.Annoyed Grunt wrote:Likewise.Bruce Rioja wrote:Cheers.

Sad Sob Story of the week
I went to put my car into service and afterwoods had a look at video ezy.
I saw Jim Carrey The Mask for $5.
When I went back a few hours later to pick up the car it was gone!
It is actually a dvd I'd try to watch!
$5 is the most I would like to pay as there are no Special Features.
____
Sunday I pointlessly bought some DVDs at the market.
Today to make myself feel better I bought some stuff:
2 Michael Moore DVDs (one negative against him) which are a present
AC/DC Ballbreaker (though had to listen to Thunderstruck after in the car as my Son loves it.)
Parking Wars Best of Season 1

Re: What are you watching tonight?
What the Mask? or my Sob Story?
I've just watched Jackass 3.5
It was quite good, there is a bit at the end I would want to post here.
Hopefuly it is on youtube to make it easier.
(it's like that guy that kicks the ball far to land in various bins etc.)

Re: What are you watching tonight?
Sure your car is lovely, but The Mask doesn't stand up to repeat viewing, $5 or not

Re: What are you watching tonight?
My Sob Story was about the Mask.
I am Quite happy about my car, it's running perfect now.
(had a hissing sound from the Fan Belt.)
I got outbid on the nine dvds incl. Alan Partridge.
I'll buy it from ebay this week maybe.
I am ebay bidding on the Bill!

Love The Bill.
When I was in QLD it was the only UK show we could get, and though I'd seen them all previously I still watched it like it was the first time. Love it.
