That's a real Australian street poster.
Apparently designed by a teenage hipster intern.
Best ending in all movies.

It's an odd way to market the film as being some sort of art-house endurance test. It's a strange film, but not in a particularly alienating way. It's full of jokes.
Would like to think that poster comes from the perspective of the photographer in the film.
"Weeeeeird. Weeeeeird. So weeeeeird."
i don't think that's a good marketing, film buffs will expect much more and mainstream crowd will probably agree and stay away.
Like Winston said, the film is actually more watchable than you expect.
and yes, those endings. I loved it.
This is a much better poster:
Also, I wrote some lengthy notes on my blog a few months ago, for anyone interested.
And here's the US schedule for theater dates.
"We eventually managed to find them near Biskupin, where demonstrations of prehistoric farming are organized. These oxen couldn't be transported to anywhere else, so we had to built the entire studio around them. A scene that lasted twenty-something seconds took us a year and a half to prepare."
Well, that was fun. It's a pretty gleeful film--an elegy to, and the celebration of, cinema past and present; the performance angle and cheeky genre-hopping work like gangbusters.
I'm writing for Slant Magazine now, so check out my list of reviews.
Hopefully I'll have the energy to update my signature soon.
Oh yeah, here are my thoughts.

Melville, thoughts plz.
I want to see this movie based on a few reviews I've read recently. However I'll just have to wait and hope it comes to Netflix Instant Viewing like some other foreign offerings over the past couple of years.

i believe i accidentally voted 200* times after i was buzzed and kept mashing the vote now button on my phone when it seemingly didn't work.
*an approximation
I predict you'll hate it.
I liked the enacted sex scene in glimmering suits on the black void of the motion-capture stage. I laughed at the hunchbacked freak biting off the girl's fingers. I groaned at the talking cars. In general, I didn't think there was anything to get me involved in the individual vignettes; the theme of performance in life doesn't really grab me, and I didn't get much other than that to bring me into any of the scenes.
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?

But is it art or lunacy

This hits Miami November 16. Can't wait.
Wait, how the hell did Acapelli vote so many times in this thread? :lol:
i have no idea
So apropos, though.
mind blown. the parallels between this film and cosmopolis are downright eerie. the theme, setting, and structure are almost identical.
