Mother


All the fuss about the Oscars got me thinking about my favorite movie that I watched last year, which was Mother. It's pretty fantastic. I also really liked Exit Through the Gift Shop, which inspired a heated debate with Eliza. I didn't see The King's Speech, and thought The Social Network and Winter's Bone were good but lacking some element that would qualify them as 'great.'

Please hit me up with some movie recommendations...

For any horror fans, my pal Sam Freeman co-wrote the script to a flick called Breadcrumbs. I don't know much other than it's getting some positive reviews, and that it's like a reverse Hansel and Gretel.

Enter the Void (Noe), we also got into a huge discussion about Exit (but I can't remember what we were discussing),resee the following Synechoche (Kaufman), The Conformist (Bertolucci) and Talk Dirty to Me (pts I and II), along with the Buttman Series. Midnight Plowboy is also a must

I actually started watching Irreversible, but got to the part in the club where the guy goes ballistic with the fire extinguisher and had to shut it off. I'm excited to check out ENTER THE VOID -- the preview looks pretty great.

Enter the Void is based on The Tibetan Book of the Dead which makes it quite lively. Nooooooo...
