currently showing or dvd? and whats your mood/goal/preference?

03.26.2007, 09:20 AM

Dvd and it can be a very mainstream movie or anything more obscure, it doesn't matter.

!@#$%! · 03.26.2007, 09:30 AM

hm i tend to match movies to my moods just like music

let's see

without knowing what you's looking for it's a wild guess, so...

how about a zhang yimou restrospective?

red sorghum -> raise the red lantern -> the story of qiu ju -> to live -> shanghai triad -> hero -> house of flying daggers -> curse of the golden flower

im skipping the ones i havent seen

or sam peckinpah?

major dundee --> the wild bunch -> straw dogs -> pat garret & billy the kid --> bring me the head of alfredo garcia --> the cross of iron

jim jarmusch perhaps?

permanent vacation --> stranger than paradise --> mystery train --> night on earth --> dead man --> ghost dog --> coffee & cigarettes --> broken flowers

ive skipped the ones i havent seen cos i cant recommend them personally

theres lots more but give us a hint

"Le Avventure di Barbapapà".

priceless.

!@#$%! · 03.26.2007, 01:42 PM

ha ha, hilarious

Green_mind · 03.26.2007, 03:00 PM

The latest films that I have seen and think are good are; Spun; Idle Hands; Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas; Hostel.
Hostel seemed to receive lots of bad reviews, but I think it was pretty good, very disturbing story.

timtimtim · 03.26.2007, 03:34 PM

anything Woody Allen.
for comedic go with bananas or Annie Hall
for more serious go with melinda and melinda or Hannah and her sisters.

out of the two movies recently made about truman capote, this one is not necessarily the better one (they're both very good) but is definitely the more entertaining of the two. it's not so heavy.

You deserve your rep once more. I prefer this version to the more (in)famous one.

i dig capote. the man had style (save for that hideous black and red sweater, but everyone has room for mistakes.)
