I was impressed with Once Were Warriors. I think you're analysis of Whale Rider is very interesting. Looking back, I think you're right about the way the...
BEFORE SUNRISE was a magical film about a young couple who meet on a train, and then choose to spend an evening wondering around Vienna, before going their...
hi everyone! i just joined filmtalkuk and i'm looking forward to being part of this group. i'm currently on my last sem in film school. and i have been in love...
Hi, and welcome to the group. I missed Eternal Sunshine when it was on in the cinema, but I'm very keen to see it. Your comments have reminded me that I must...
thanks!!! btw, i noticed that for some reason or another i never got to finish my sentence in my first post--- i meant to say--- if i were to define a the word...
hi friends this is my first email since i've joined the group ... i justwanted to present a silent poem on the screen hwich is in my opinion in it's way of...
Hi Rye! Hmmm, let's all answer that question then... What film made you want to be a filmmaker? Or maybe just a film that changed your life. Mine was seeing...
hello damox! i never got to see either film but i just have to say that that your lucky.... i never really saw a movie as art up until i was in university. i...
I just finished a truly independent film called NOBODY WANTS YOUR FILM about the struggle to make and then get the work to an audience. I've set up a website...
I don't think any single film has changed my life, but cinema in general probably has. I remember the slow process of realising that this was in fact one of...
Well it's hard to review this one without giving the plot away, so I guess this counts as a spoiler warning. Okay then, what we have is a small Amish type...
Everything you've heard about this documentary is true. It is a film that actually lives up to the ecstatic press reviews. Complex, disturbing, fascinating,...
i've heard alot about this film.... i'm gonna try to get a hold of it.... it's been quite awhile since i've seen a good documentary.... +) rye Mike OBrien...
Walter Salles would be guaranteed a place in my list of the great directors alive today. In Central Station and Behind the Sun he gave us exquisite, deeply...
"a moving, but not cloying, experience." Cloying is the first word that springs to mind when I think of the dreadful Central Station. The sort of treacly...
Wow, thanks Squeally! I've never seen Repo Man. Never thought much of Alex Cox (except as a Moviedrome presenter! Bring it back now!), and this is a flippin...
i just saw the stepford wives. (you'll have to forgive me if i, at any point, like maybe now, bring up films you've already discussed because sometimes we get...
Hi Damian As you'll gather from my review, I don't share your dislike of Central Station. So I'll be interested to see what you make of it if you decide to...
Much to my disappointment this wasn't a film about a refrigerator (surely someone needs to make some movies about household appliances); neither was it about...
I decided that it was prudent to have my Big Mac, Medium Fries, no drink, before catching this movie. Nevertheless upon entering the cinema I was feeling...
Take a slice of JAWS, add a piece of HOME ALONE, and garnish with a dollop of BLAIR WITCH PROJECT and you have got the flavour of this movie. Thus our...
Adapt, improvise, roll with it; yea yea yea, as we have not so much another 'Tom Cruise' vehicle, as instead 'Tom Cruise' in a vehicle. This time around the ex...
Hmmm... for me it's not that way. Although I sure think you can blame Michael Mann for a lot of style, I think his movies, at least the neo-noir ones, have ...
Well one of the problems I have with cinema in general, and this type of movie ilustrates this, is that people just wouldn't behave like that in real life. The...
Well, you're right and I agree, in general with what you say. However I really enjoyed the film, as well as Manhunter which I agree is style over substance but...
Definately worth trying to get a good copy of THIEF, as that is one of 'James Caan's strongest performances. To be honest I had forgotten that was a Michael...
'Daniel Craig' is the straight and narrow drugs middleman (oxymoron), who finds himself caught up in a treble cross between his front, Serbian gangsters, and a...
Hi there, I am a newbie in this group so I'll introduce myself. I am a French student in Edinburgh and I really enjoy cinema. Depending on my mood, it goes...
