Quote from: Reed RothchildWell I don't get my opinions from just anywhere, like here for example after reading many of the post here I would trust most of your judgement on wether a movie was good or not.

yeah i didnt mean to jump down your throat.  sorry about that. :lol: welcome to the boards though.
Christopher Nolan's directive was clear to everyone in the cast and crew: Use CGI only as a last resort.

I just blind bought "Gummo".

I love this movie!

I have to say, this is the most random, strange, movie I've ever seen in my life. It definately does not fit in a 3 act structure.

All of the images look so different and real. Most of the people in the movie were not even real actors and it looked absolutely great.

I recommend this to everyone.

I'm a big Gummo fan, too. The imagery is just phenomenal.

Strange that cinematographer Jeanne-Yves Escoffier went on to do the much less striking (even anonymous) Nurse Betty.
""Money doesn't come into it. It never has. I do what I do because it's all that I am." - Morrissey

"Lacan stressed more and more in his work the power and organizing principle of the symbolic, understood as the networks, social, cultural, and linguistic, into which a child is born. These precede the birth of a child, which is why Lacan can say that language is there from before the actual moment of birth. It is there in the social structures which are at play in the family and, of course, in the ideals, goals, and histories of the parents. This world of language can hardly be grasped by the newborn and yet it will act on the whole of the child's existence."

Julien Donkey Boy is great too. It's very stylized -- they take advantage of DV and push it to its limits. And even if you don't like the movie, it's hard to deny the brilliance of Werner Herzog's performance.

I blind bought the following and did pretty well...

Nosferatu
Taxi Driver
Boondock Saints
Requiem For A Dream

Those are the most recent.  If you haven't seen any of those movies, I highly suggest you blind buy them.  :-D

I again have to point out the loveliness of Sevigny singing a hymn while walking through a corn (what?) field in the orange glow of the sunlight. It's really beautiful; striking the way Malick or D. Gordon Green can be.

Well, that's where our opinions, differ.  Boondock Saints was a great movie, but I feel was better the second time.  But ifyou don't like it, hakuna matata.
