    Match Cut Directors Consensus - Satoshi Kon

    And now it's Satoshi Kon's week. So get ready for metaness, dancing refrigerators, and sweet techno pop orchestration. Since he doesn't have too much, we'll count Paranoia Agent as one work as well when we're compiling his results.

    The Boat People - 9
    The Power of the Dog - 7.5
    The King of Pigs - 7

    I am impatient of all misery in others that is not mad. Thou should'st go mad, blacksmith; say, why dost thou not go mad? How can'st thou endure without being mad? Do the heavens yet hate thee, that thou can'st not go mad?

    I'd like to see Perfect Blue and Millennium Actress, but neither are available where I live. Maybe I can get to Tokyo Godfathers before the week is over.
