Iggy's IMAC brings all the girls to the yard

"Better off Dead" is another one of my favorites from the 80s.... Funny you brought up Antonioni. I saw L'avventura the other day and I couldn't stand it. I understand its about the Bourgeoisie living such boring lives that they play games with each other, live dull lives, and don't really "love" anyone. The cinematography was ravishing. Beautiful black and white shots. I was never able to understand Sandri's character development or motives. I found him to be a dull character, and I didn't like Vitti's acting either. The dialogue is so-so. All in all I think it's overrated. How is it one of the greats?

Have you seen Tarkovsky's "Mirror" Bluebird?

I was thinking more of Antonioni's 'The Passenger'. I think both this work, and 'No Men...' are similar sagagious stories of identity and alienation. I also see similarities between the two film's DP work, that of, respectively, Roger Deakins and Luciano Tovoli.

I've not seen Mirror. I will have to put it on my list.

Everyone interprets films their own way. Film Criticism is a matter of sole opinion. I'm harsh because it's the only way I know. Truffaut was harsh, and he is arguably the greatest film critic ever to live. I don't say why films are bad, but why I didn't think they were good.

Truffaut was more a film theorist (as were many in the French new wave)and his analysis would have provided a more objective sociological breakdown of a work. His agenda would have been to put a piece into its' historical context.

Fargo - 3/5 - An overrated picture in my opinion. Probably since it's so "real" it's boring at times. Steve Buscemi shines.

No Country for Old Men - 1/5 - Sloppy story with no character development clumsily put together. I honestly didn't care about a thing in the story. medicore monologue at the climax.
Burn After Reading - 1/5 - Clooney, Malkovich, and Brad Pitt couldn't save this film.

Youre lucky Im not still a mod or you'd be in purg right now.
