Yes. It's pretty great. Sorry I missed it when it was playing at Cinema 21 a couple weeks ago. This movie must still be a thrill to audiences 90 years in.

Amazing movie!

[Stay Puft]

It really is. The screening I attended was a digital restoration, too, and it looked incredible, so thank goodness I decided not to watch the copy I got last year (I stopped after fives minutes - the quality was so bad and dark and washed out I thought the opening scenes were supposed to be night scenes, was laughing to myself in the theatre when I realized they were actually day scenes).

The first Yang I've seen, too. A Brighter Summer Day is screening here next month so I'm going to try to catch that as well.

[Russ]

Samurai Cop is the best.

Hey Yums, have you seen David Beaird's The Party Animal? It has a great soundtrack with mainly Buzzcocks and Flestones stuff.

Leland Crooke has a cameo as a gay secretary. :)

[Yum-Yum]

Samurai Cop is the best.

A bearded Robert Z'Dar straight-up kills people with an Uzi in Samurai Cop.

No, I haven't seen The Party Animal. Which is kind of messed up. I mean, the theatrical poster features a drunken imbecile in a torn Confederate flag t-shirt and yellow knee pads spazzing out amidst a wide array of shapely female legs.

It would seem that Leland Crooke is one of David Bearid's go-to actors (he's also in My Chauffeur and Pass the Ammo). But then again, you probably already know this.

Anyway, I just added The Party Animal to my to see list. In fact, I'm going to make it my top priority of 2014 (lamest new year's resolution ever).

[Spun Lepton]

DaMU, are you going to make a similar 2014 thread? I would make one myself, but I didn't want to steal your thunder. :)

[Dead & Messed Up]

DaMU, are you going to make a similar 2014 thread? I would make one myself, but I didn't want to steal your thunder. :)

Go for it, hombre.

[Scar]

DaMU, are you going to make a similar 2014 thread? I would make one myself, but I didn't want to steal your thunder. :)

Yeah, I might stick with it this year. My list would just have Carrie on it.

[Stay Puft]

Final list:

1. A Grin Without a Cat (Chris Marker, 1977)
2. My Friend Ivan Lapshin (Aleksey German, 1986)
3. The Terrorizers (Edward Yang, 1986)
4. The Earrings of Madame de... (Max Ophüls, 1953)
5. Woman in the Dunes (Hiroshi Teshigahara, 1964)
6. Upstream Color (Shane Carruth, 2013)
7. Yearning (Mikio Naruse, 1964)
8. The Conformist (Bernardo Bertolucci, 1970)
9. The Face of Another (Hiroshi Teshigahara, 1966)
10. Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans (F.W. Murnau, 1927)

Which is the same as my last update in August, just before TIFF. My movie watching suffered in the last four months thanks to work and other nonsense, and I only really kept up with a few new theatrical releases after that.
