I had no idea Cronenberg was making a new movie. This looks pretty cool. Has anybody seen it or heard something about it?

But before you're redirected, I'll mention as I did in the post you'll be redirected to that it's a really good movie. The more I think about it, the more I think it might be my favorite Cronenberg film.

well i just came back from seeing the film. its remarkable. anyone else see it yet?

I agree that it's great. I saw it this last December and haven't quit thinking about it since. I wanna go see it again this week. It seems to me that it's a more subtle/ dare i say mature Cronenberg, (Don't worry I know how stupid that probably sounds, maybe not, who gives a fuck.) His last three movies have sort of seemed to culminate into this one story wise I guess. A new Language, a new flesh. Good old fucking cronenberg.

I'm planning on taking a trip to the city and seeing either this or all the real girls. Which is more worth it?

word up, cecil. word up.

I've seen this film and totally support Cecil: this is a prerequisite to any interaction with real girls.

The only movie I've ever seen that makes familiar English places unfamiliar and strange to me. Cronenberg does for here what Lynch does for small town America. All the performances are exceptional, specially luscious Miranda Richardson, the pace is immaculate and the story continually catches you out. Just as you think you've got it sorted pyschologically, it shifts away. It also does the brilliant trick of sympathetically conveying the male fear of women without blaming the women. It's scary but also so known. It breaks my heart that it'll probably miss out on awards because of its release date, but also that it didn't get any recognition here.

I love Miranda Richardson. I can't say why. She just has a very interesting quality about her.
