Okay, Brightside, you win. Which Ruiz should I start with from these?:
Klimt
That Day
Comedy of Innocence
Genealogies of a Crime
Three Crowns of the Sailor
The Hypothesis of the Stolen Painting
I'll trade you. I'll watch Diva when you watch Ruiz.Quoting Clipper Ship Captain (view post)
Out of those, I'd say the top 4 are more easily approachable, but really, I'd say go for whichever interests you most. I have a bunch of caps from The Hypothesis of the Stolen Painting so I'll edit a few of them into my previous post.

Fair enough. I'll rent one for next weekend, and try to watch it by the end of next week.I'll trade you. I'll watch Diva when you watch Ruiz.

I saw Klimt today actually and enjoyed it, though not as much as That Day. Aesthetically it's really impressive even though I had no clue what was really going on most of the time. Apparently skimming over the wiki article of Gustav Klimt before viewing doesn't help a lot, but still an interesting film.ritch:
The Lost Domain looks pretty cool, I'll have to bookmark it on KG.
Yay! The Lost Domain is much more in the vein of That Day. It's playful, but not as funny as That Day. I also find it much more visually impressive than That Day, though naturally that one's not bad by any means.I saw Klimt today actually and enjoyed it, though not as much as That Day.

I think I've decided on Comedy of Innocence since the synopsis sounded so intriguing. By the way, I really like this quote by Raul Ruiz:
That's a good one. Interesting thriller.
Ha, yeah, that quote really sums him up well.

Some awesome screenshots here.
Has anyone discovered how to take screenshots on your PC with your Blu-ray player?

I think we should post screenshots without names and others have to guess that they are. I'll start:

Can we put screenshots in spoiler tags from now on so the page loads faster?
That would be lovely, as I do most of my Match Cutting via blackberry. I really love this thread. I considered tackling Close Encounters Of The Third Kind, but my lord, I bet I could post a hundred amazing stills from that flick. Spielberg (while not my favorite filmmaker by a mile) has a fantastic eye for framing some excellent shots.
Yeah and with all the images loading in each post... hell, I had to quote this post just to be able to read it because the images kept loading and pushing it down.
Thanks for the help, Kurosawa-san!
Indeed! He shall be repped!
