Yeahduff wrote:Just caught Wristcutters: A Love Story. Involves a trio of self-inflicted dead people hanging out in purgatory, searching for things they're pretty sure they're not gonna find. Came about this close to greatness, but I can deal with really-goodness, particularly when it involves finding a balance between the surreal and the apathetic. Recommended.
I saw that recently, too. Pretty good. Interesting.
I finally saw Milk last night. Gus Van Sant reminds me of François Truffaut - films attempting to do more than simply entertain or even provoke thought, but to incite people to action. Well played, sir.
Did I know Gus Van Sant directed that? Maybe I forgot. Either way, I've been meaning to see that for a while.
Just caught Notes On A Scandal. Still deciding what I think about it, though everyone in the film being crazy makes it hard to determine who the protagonist is supposed to be. I will say Judi Dench and Cate Blanchette are great in it, as they always are. Judi's got some quality put-downs.
