Completely off-topic, but what are everyone's favourite scenes in which somebody infiltrates a base/mansion/etc with plenty of armed bodyguards and either goes about stealthily (or rather...

Oh wow, you actually have a production company? Can I work for you? Seriously?

Can't say I agree with that interpretation. I understood the last meeting between Quell/Dodd, as a tying up of loose ends with Amy Adams' character correctly pointing out that "he doesn't want...

This, this, this. Every word. Exactly what was running through my head (just got back home from seeing the film actually).

I like D&MU's interpretation there. I'll admit to not really...

Where is it playing, and at what time is the film?

Hey, is Rescue Me any good?

Phillip Baker Hall is appropriately Baker Hall-y, though. I dunno, I really like the reveal midway through, and certain scenes have a deftness and vitality to them (when he notices the blood on his...

I get more out of them academically, than I really do in terms of enjoyment as a spectator. This looks pretty cool though. Tarkovsky was definitely a pretty interesting guy.

Hurm. Not a big fan of any of those dudes (save early Scorsese).

Those Paris interview links look pretty damn sweet though. Thanks!

Inspired by being gifted the excellent "The Conversations: Walter Murch and the Art of Editing Film", I wanted to ask you guys if you knew of any other very illuminating books on the creative process...

Looked a little more light-hearted (yet still depressing) than I thought going from the 1st teaser. Joaquin Phoenix looks like such a Cassavetes man in this. Can't wait.

Bah and humbug to you.

Yes, but how incredibly sexy is Isabelle Adjani in this? Good lord.

Honourable mention:

That guy drinking out of a fishbowl in the courtroom scene in Bananas.

Hm. I guess I'll have to see this then. It looked really run-of-the-mill when I saw the posters and trailers, though.

It's no Bridesmaids.

Forgot about Houllebecq. I've wanted to read him for a while. Has anyone read any Cendrars? I thought Moravaigne had a great concept but was slightly bored by it.

Love is a band from about the same time. Started off garage-rockey then got slightly more folksy and weird. Good stuff. I'm sure you have heard it before, they are used occasionally in films and...

Spielberg has that effect on people.

Cheers all

Melville: I've actually already read Nausea (and bits and pieces of Being and Nothingness) and didn't like it. I'm not a fan of Sartre's style of writing which was more concerned with...

Raiders of the Lost Ark when I was 6 or 7 or so. I decided then and there to become an archeologist. Then I discovered that archeologists don't get to beat up Nazis, travel the world and sleep with...

I'm in France at the moment and have just discovered a brilliant bookstore with all sorts of great stuff. Basically I want to stock up on stuff before I go back east of the Atlantic.

So recommend...

:pritch:

Do you like Love?

:lol:

I foresaw this reply. I like The Falls (and Greenaway in general) but I think it's ludicrous what you've said. It's got that absurd sense of detachment that I like, but there's nothing...

The Falls is much funnier than Zelig? Really?
