Boys photographing girls.
Been catching up on old films these days thanks to netflix. I really should not have gone this long before seeing Ed Wood.

He really gets into the roles that he plays, like George Clooney is still George Clooney playing whoever but Depp is whoever he plays.
Pirates isn't bad. It actually has a plot and such which really surprised me since they based it on an amusement park ride. I was thining it would be worse then video games conversion games, those at least have some plot to them. Well, Doom didn't, but Doom was about tearing through demons with a shotgun. While entertaining, it's not the stuff of movies.
Besides it's a pirate movie. How often do you see pirate movies?

That's all the confirmation I need.
That's interesting what you say about George Clooney (who I'm beginning to respect as a director), because I've heard someone say that Johnny Depp is always playing himself. Looking at the wide range of roles he takes up, that is one amazing compliment.
Ed Wood is about perfect. The film quality, the performances, goddamn did I want to run out and see Bride of the Monster right after viewing it. I hope everything portrayed in that movie is absolutely true, and if it's not, I hope never to learn how it really happened.

I haven't seen anything George Clooney has directed yet, so I can't really comment on that. That is a big compliment for Depp. He just naturally becomes the characters he plays, with Clooney the characters become George Clooney.yeahduff wrote:That's interesting what you say about George Clooney (who I'm beginning to respect as a director), because I've heard someone say that Johnny Depp is always playing himself.

I wouldn't doubt it. Ed Wood in real life was pretty off the wall, and Plan 9 is just a train wreck.

George Clooney is responsible for Confessions of a Dangerous Mind and Good Night and Good Luck, both of which I recommend. Good Nigh is slow and quiet, just to warn you, but it's still great.
Rewatched Red last night. It got me interested in telling stories again. Very surprised to learn how much that film shaped my brain so many years ago.
