Clerks and Clerks II. Enjoyed seeing the first one again, thought the second one was hysterically funny.

Rewatching Boondock Saints, and then the second one Monday when it arrives.

The Last Station

Delightfully poignant and heartbreakingly real ... The descriptions I'd read about this film mislead; this film is not at all just about the Baron Tolstoy fighting w/ his Baroness wife over the their estate will in his last weeks of life! That is a mere, essential component of this story.

What would be discovered were you to enter the last (or any) days of a living, royal icon - a true and magnificent legend's REAL life? Would you then come to empathize w/ the mere man behind the mastermind of a greatness SO large that it will last the test of time and the ages? What happens when you peel back the inspired, absolute genius and stardom veneer into his core family life: his decades as a householder, husband and father - his days on Earth in the frailty and emotionality that is existence?

... We embrace in those lofty shadows, an ever so simply human a being - w/ all that is that being's same intense frailties and basic creature needs that we all share: love, lust, relationships, ties, gains vs losses, fears, remorse, regrets, unrealized dreams, flaws and entrapments that define a life... This film takes you behind the scenes of Tolstoy's incredible works and the Tolstoy movement of his day, and lets you see the aging 'every man' grapple w/ a family coexistence that simultaneously built, fueled and, yet, distracted and divided a soul so far past inspired to absolute brilliance when he picked up a pen or spoke. Then there were also the demands placed upon him by his own allegiance to the Tolstoy Movement - and his and his works' intense notoriety, that was beckoning the necessary and radical change of his day in Russia.

It reminded me of some of the incredible and famous artistes, inventors and educators that have graced my life, and what a severe mess things actually were behind the scenes that belie such majik and immortality - the men and women behind the curtain's demands. I loved meeting Tolstoy on just such a neutral, leveling plane; he was just one of us. IF you love Tolstoy, this is such a telling, fly on the wall glimpse in ...

:thumbsup: ... Inception ... drinker

Oh, my Hells YEAH - I absolutely LOVED it!!! I'm thinking it is somehow right outta the "Best of Twilight Zone" vault, yes??? What a superb film ... If ya find yourself in need a serious thriller fix? Settle in for quite a ride w/ this jewel, perhaps somewhat described as this millenia's new Matrix.

It is both figuratively and quite literally bursting at the seams in its multi-layered storytelling ... w/ so much flavourful texture and delectable nuance. It is popping w/ fresh creativity and the provoking of the deepest impressions, thought and feelings ... It so perfectly performs the dissection of the phenomena that we call dreams!

What if you could enter a dream, know you are dreaming and knowingly enter a dream w/in that dream, and so on ... What if you could architect the design in hopes of truly becoming monarch of all you survey? You would be at the intersection of Inception and ... ??? Who or what would be the legendary 'ghost in the machine'? How will you ever again know dream time from realtime? What is real time ... and when exactly is it, again? This baby delivers! Can't wait to dream tonight *Kate licks her whetted lips*


That said ... Do not think to see on DVD, CInema ONLY - The power will NOT translate to a telly screen or sound system! Also ... If you think you do not fancy classical, symphony and such? Remind yourself while watching this how very much just such orchestration drives the majority of great films, setting and defining the tone and your involvement in the movie, classics right up to the present! I loved how much this flic was pushed to excellence via the film score!





Edit: Sidebar: Anyone else note the scene that could have been taken right off the 'Shutter Island' editing room floor? Heheheee ... laugh

I just put down "Trojan Horse" in DVD format. It was three hours long!!! Heavens!! The casting was excellent, acting ditto, the direction very good, not one boring moment. Sexy as all get out, provided you watch it after a week of not playing with yourself. Best line? A US president says, "I don't think it counts as gay sex when you're the top man." (Meaning general "you".) The movie featured at least three main female actors, who were all in their early fifties plus plus, and they all made me melt. Their personalities, looks, toughness while retaining feminity, their intellect, the works. Mm-mm.

This was playing in the future, but not a sci-fi -- more like a po-fi. (Political fiction/thriller.)

The Shadow Of Chikara 1977. This was one of those little obscure horror flick that's been on my radar for years. Decent horror western with Joe Don Baker.

Ghost Writer - Interesting, NOT Roman Polanski's best work ... but at least dark as per his usual!

If ya wanna see brilliantly dark Polanski???


See ...Bitter Moon ... An homage to his muse, his wife Emmanuelle Seigner ...

Costarring Peter Coyote ...

That film is DELICIOUS!!!

Ghost Writer had BRILLIANT setting ... I'd kill for that ocean and house!

I absolutely thrill to an oceanside rain, gloom, storm, dunes, moors and desolation ... love
