Aw I JUST bought that!
Christopher Nolan's directive was clear to everyone in the cast and crew: Use CGI only as a last resort.

Is that rabbit a reference to the surreal obvious studio river floating/dreamy sequence?
I've wondered if that inspired Gondry in the similar type sequences he's done - I know of one in Human Nature and I think one of his music videos.

"It's a hard world for little things..."
The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong in the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry.

I've been mowing lawns all week to get ready for this Barnes & Noble 50% off sale. ALL WEEK.
Let's go to a motel. We don't have to do anything -- we could just swim.

Criterion forum is saying Broadcast News. I can't comment because I never got around to seeing the flick.

Is it because it reminds you of two things you hate, books and malick?

it bothers me, too. And I like both those things.

it just looks like poorly edited copywork.
We often went to the cinema, the screen would light up and we would tremble, but also, increasingly often, Madeleine and I were disappointed. The images had dated, they jittered, and Marilyn Monroe had gotten terribly old. We were sad, this wasn't the film we had dreamed of, this wasn't the total film that we all carried around inside us, this film that we would have wanted to make, or, more secretly, no doubt, that we would have wanted to live.

I love it, but I would love it more without the fold. I don't think it enhances the cover in any way.
