Paris, Je T'aime

very emotional all around.  it was good, I enjoyed even the moments I would never buy in an actual film.

The first one and Alexander Payne's were my favorite.  Craven's and the vampire one before his, that was quite like a vampire commercial as Hedwig says, were my least favorite.  Doyle's stood out as unique and opaque.  Oh I really enjoyed the man-meeting-wife-who-had-deadly-disease one too.

Part of the film's problem is the short films being...well, too short. Perhaps if there weren't so many three to five minute vignettes, the feature could've really built to something. A few of them are funny and more engaging than others but they all feel like little quirky bits that never build momentum. When you string them all together into a feature, the result is unsatisfying, uneven and eventually dull.

I think Cuaron and the Coens did the best with what little time they had. Cuaron is obviously still in love with those continuous shots.

It's also a little funny that it ended with a baby in a stroller crying.

I have a grandfather who has a similar opinion of films, but he says, "Blasted is any movie over an hour and a half."

It was a collection of short films and you liked some and didn't like others.  Hardly a peculiar trait that's exclusive to this anthology.

Maggie Gyllenhaal's French is quite good.

I wish my grandfather was as eloquent, but he usually says "snore" and then wakes up towards the climax, asking me why T800 and T1000 are fighting each other.
