No, let me get this straight: you were given two movies to criticize, one being Forrest Gump and the other being Pulp Fiction, and you choose to take issue with Pulp Fiction? Really?

Forrest Gump is actually a film that I hate more than most others, but at least I HATE it...Pulp Fiction is just one of those films I can't even be bothered to have an emotional response to.

ha ha i think my face turned a little red the super kool girls club membership is strictly honorary. im very much a male but im also an honorary super kool girl. for which i'm grateful! well yeah desperate living is so insane, it's even funnier than pink flamingos i guess. ive been know on occasion to call my wife "princes coo-coo". my favorite movie is perhaps la dolce vita, i didn't pick it for blastoff because it's more of a cautionary tale, and what would be the point? |

At least it's amusing, you know? I mean, maybe it's lost its luster after the 10 billion times it's appeared on cable, but there's more to it than there is to Forrest Gump, that much is for sure.

I remember showing the whole of Persona to a class a few years back. The tangible hatred I received from students afterwards lead me to conclude that Bergman may not be the most popular of filmmakers with today's yoof.

yeah amarcord is sweet & has some nice scenes but it's a little too disjointed, you know, like scenes + scences, i don't know. i'll take 8 1/2 too over amarcord. not only is the story great but those scenes with la saraghina (had to look up for the spelling) are almost mythical. |

The same happened with Bresson's Diary of a Country Priest. "Pearls before Swine", I say.

hm see there i had a problem, i did not like that movie, too catholic for me, i don't know, it was just irritating, perhaps for subconsious reasons. au hasard balthazar, on the other hand-- sublime! |

Don't do this to me !@#$96i, Diary... is maybe the most beautiful film ever. The scene where the girl dismisses the priest outside the church is just incredible. I understand that you respect Bresson (Au hazard balthazar) so I don't include you in this, but I really believe that an age that generally can't see anything in his work has become too cynical to care about.

well i saw this movie at a time when my feelings about christian morality were getting more vitriolic, so perhaps this made me see the priest as some sort of fucking no-balls human worm torturing himself with his stupid fasts... like why should i care about this asshole? i think i didnt even finish the movie... now, this is very important: i was raised catholic, & have rejected the whole deal, in successive & ever more thorough waves, staring when i was 11 & recurring cyclically. and so that's why i said "maybe i hated it for subconscious reasons". on the subject of bresson, a man escaped is fucking extraordinary and perhaps my favorite, and lancelot du lac stands out as one of the most bizarre movies i've ever seen. pickpocket was good too. all of bresson! oh and his adaptation of dostoevsky.. une femme douce? /edit: and mouchette!! /but this one, you're going to have to give me a get out of jail free card s'il-vous plaitez... |
