Deerskin (Quentin Dupieux) - Enjoyed it a lot, comical in an absurd way, and good performances

One Week (Buster Keaton) - Excellent, has a childlike surreal quality to it, looks visually good as well

A Day in the Country (Jean Renoir) - Great film, has a lot of charm to it, all the performances were great

Finally seen Elvis - which I thought was fantastic. The film itself is great - if I have a critiscm it's that film is almost totally about his relationship with his dodgy manager.

....

The Trailer for Thor was hilarious - I genuinely thought it was spoof or an ad for an ice lolly !

I gave up on marvel some years ago - but I don't think I've seen a trailer so off putting as this - it looks a feckin awful film.

You watched the movies that made us episode on it on Netflix? 

Worth 30 mins of your time 

Got round to watching this. 
 

I did enjoy it because JP is so interesting, but **** me I hate that series. It’s such a great idea for a series but the way it’s edited and narrated and presented is utterly bizarre. It’s like watching You’ve Been Framed

Mommie Dearest (Frank Perry) - Worked as a sort of What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? type horror, but lost it's way in the second half

Ménilmontant (Dimitri Kirsanoff) - Great film with a sort of experimental feel but also with a storyline to follow, Nadia Sibirskaïa dazzled as the main actor.

Paper Soldier (Aleksey German Jr.) - Very good, great cinematography, sound design, and performances by the lead actors, very similar in style to the films of his father.

Just back from Elvis and Thought it was very good. It was typically Baz Luhman but it worked and worked well.

Both main leads were very good, even though Col. Tom Parker was portrayed in a slightly pantomime manner.

But the sound, editing and costumes were spot on. I'd watch it again

The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou (Wes Anderson) - Visually charming, with some amusing dialogue along the way, all the cast played their roles well

The Fabulous Baron Munchausen (Karel Zemen) - Enchanting visuals and an obvious influence on the above

Happy End (Oldřich Lipský) - At the start of the film a man is executed, but he experiences his life backwards, good film with lots of clever ideas

One of the most brilliantly disturbing movies I've seen in a long time.

If you like horror, then watch this as soon as you can :thumb:

Takes a fair bit to phase my horror soaked desensitised soul these days, but that movie managed it.
