The "even" comes from having talked to so many people who fucking rag on it hard. I thought it was an excellent "trapped with the monster" horror flick.

Watching the directors cut version of Alien3 certainly makes things better. Although deep down I can't help but wonder "if the fucking studio monkeys had left Fincher how much better could this film have been?"

the only alien movie i ever loved was the first one. riddley scott used to be a great director.
the second one with winona in a space maze was dumb action shit, i didn't like it. 3 with the YY prisoners was better, it had some psychology to it and fear or rape but it wasn't great i stopped watching after that. |

Woah there you're getting confuddled and befuddled. The one with Winona was the 4th one. Aliens directed by James Cameron, which is just as good as the first one, is the second one.

![]() The Three Burials Of Melquiades Estrada I wasn't sure what to expect with this and it took a while for me to really get into it but after the initial, 'what the fuck is going on here?' it blew me away. One of those films that's impossible to describe. You just have to watch it. |

Deren and Anger were contemporaries of one another and shared an interest in earlier European avant-garde filmmakers like Cocteau and Bunuel. Have you seen Anger's film Fireworks? There's definite similarities between that and Meshes. They were both on the outer-outer fringes of Hollywood - less self-consciously in the case of Deren but, Meshes anyway, besides obviously being key to the whole Underground Film thing, seems to anticipate certain aspects (albeit in a roundabout way) of films like Sunset Bvd and Mullholland Dr. It's been described as a 'sunshine noir', which really works for me.

PHIL SPECTOR
With Al Pacino, Helen Mirren and Jeffrey Tambor. Written and directed by David Mamet. Loved loved loved it. Mamet is in very fine form. Acting is great. Lots of food for thought. Recommended. |

I need to watch HEAT again. It bored the crap out of me when I watched it the first time around.

Interesting.
Compare/contrast Pacino's performance in HEAT versus PHIL SPECTOR. 2000 words. Double-space. Due by Friday. |

I've not seen Phil Spector but does he get to wear snazzy suits and fire big guns?
