Hehehe I'm currently on my way to transferring to Berkeley for Architecture next Fall. The vision one attains from studying architecture is SO ridiculously suited for film that it blows me away sometimes.

Last Thursday I had coffee, a Nature Valley bar, and some sushi =).

I am 28 years old from Sweden and have been following this thread since spring 2010 when Master was first in develop. I think I found this place because I was searching the web for the Master screenplay. I am studying filmediting and like reading screenplays and I am also a big fan of Paul Thomas Andersons and think this forum is really really great! So I registered... and now here I am!

Hello! I have been following this site for years but was to lazy to sign up untill one day I decided too
I used to have MUBI but i deleted that account. I am from NYC. Live in Queens. I am a huge P.T Anderson fan, Q.T fan, James Gray, Gaspar Noe,Steven Soderburgh, Martian Scorsese,Abel FerraraLucio Fulci,R.W Fassbinder, Sam Peckinaph,Jean Rollin and Brian DePalma to name a few.

I wanna get into Jess Franco and Tinto Brass but have not seen a film by either of these dudes but if I had to start I would start with Salon Kitty for Brass( although I own Caligula, but I havent finished it..) and for Franco I DVR Venus in Furs once but my sister deleted it for an episode of Modern Family....

I love spaghetti westerns and collect them, I wish that German rainbow series would become available in English. I am so bummed that its not, I will settle for English subtitles...

I love anime and manga, paticualry the anime of the 60s,70s,80s, and early 90s. I dont like the heavy CG stuff thats out there now, but if the story is good I will watch it.

I love kung fu movies and would like to discuss Shaw Brothers films and Golden Harvest, the esstenials and what not

I love film noir and would like to dicuss these films

I love  blaxpoilation films and would like to discuss these films as well, my favorites are Candy Tangerine Man, Samson, Dolemite, Truck Tunner, Black Ceasar, Hell in Harlem, and That Man Bolt. I also enjoy any Pam Grier movie.

I love any movie with Klaus Kinski, he is my favorite actor and I have read his memoir twice.
I love any movie with Franco Nero, hes the fucking man
I love any movie with Tomas Milian he is also the fucking man!
I love any movie with Jan Michael Vincent
I love any movie with Claudia Jennings
I love any movie with Soleda Miranda

I am huge Bruce Lee fan.

I need to see more Jackie Chan films. Gimme a list of his greatest, I own Police Story 2 and New Police Story and Drunken Master.

I love Jet Li movies.

Huge fan of the following: Alan Ladd( Lucky Jordan, This Gun for Hire, and Shane are some of my favorites)
Steve McQueen, Burt Lancaster, Kirk Douglas, Orsen Welles, Jason Robards, Humphery Bogart, Ed G. Robinson,Paul Muni, John Garfield, Robert Ryan, Aldo Lado,Spencer Tracy.

I would like recommendations for any movie starring these folks

I am getting into Giallos and would like to discuss these

I enjoy reading Greek and Roman classic literature, so I see myself enjoying the sword and sandal movies, I recently say Ulysses with Kirk Douglas and Anthony Quinn, and enjoyed it for what it was worth.

I have a question: Can someone link the best DVD verison of A Woman in A Lizards Skin: I am dying to purchase this but dont want to get screwed with a shit copy that I read about.

I love Czech new wave and Polish cinema.
I love Soviet cinema
I am hooked on Larissa Sheraoka( I know I spelled her name wrong, but she directed a great film called Wings, sadly she died young in a carr acident)

I love Italain cinema(neo realism- fellini,visconti,pasolini,lina wertumuller,marco ferrari,etc)
I love yakuza movies, I own the Kinji Fukawsawa boxset and would like some more recommendations
I love samaurai movies and would like some recommendations, I have the Alian Silver book on Samurai movies but its dated and probably has nothing after 1970

I am looking for the Knuckle Sandwhich script as well as the hard eight one.
If anyone has any links to any other scripts by Robert Towne,David Milch,James Toback, Roger Avary or John Milius. I would be grateful. I can trade some scripts that I have like Wolf on Wall Street and Drive Away Dykes.

I also enjoy australlian expoliation films, but I have only seen Road Games,Mad Max, Road Warrior, and Stunt Rock. So gimme some mo'!


I want recommendations for giallos,spaghetti westerns,japanese new wave,french new wave, itlaian neo realism,
samurai films,blaxpoliation, silent movies, and new german cinema

Oh by the way my name is Rudy

Hey guys.

I felt a re-introduction kind of thing might be appropriate considering it's been a number of years since my last post (though some of you ought to remember me)...I've been checking in regularly ever since, just there was a certain point when, looking back upon what seemed to me a vastly immature posting history, I concluded I wasn't contributing much of value to the site and decided to shut up for a while.

But anyhow, just wanted to say hello to everybody. What's been up with me? Well, I recently earned my bachelor's degree (english/theatre) and am now living in New Orleans. In the past few years I've written a number of plays, a few of which were produced at school, a few others given readings etc. in New York, good fun. I am currently plugging away at my latest script, making good time and feeling quite invigorated. I recently quit my job and am confident that it was the right thing to do.

This place has been a continuous source of information and inspiration for me, and I'm looking forward to contributing, however modestly, again.
