Eastern Promises - worst Cronenberg film by far

Please elaborate.

not as good as his other films

It really annoys me when they put the names of the actors above the pictures in the movie poster but in the wrong order

I have too much time on my hands

Watched this last night



Pretty weird, but interesting.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes. Well it was pretty evident exactly how the plot would unravel from about 15 mins in. And I've never seen any of the Planet of the Apes films before. Not terrible blockbuster fare though.

understanding things too quickly is a good way to not really understand things

just watched L'herisson / The Hedgehog last night. French film about a suicidal eleven year old and her relationships with those who live and work in the apartment building where she lives. Great watch, but possible contender for the 'saddest movie ever' thread.

[herbalicious]

interesting you think a serious man is cohens best work.......i've never watched it as someone once told me not to bother!!

I shall now bother.

Fargo gets my vote. I love that film.

Being john malkovich

Weird but wonderful

Being john malkovich

Weird but wonderful

I watch that film way too much. One of my top 10.
Kaufman is one of the best writers around these days. Check out Adaptation next if you haven't. Kind of related. Probably Nic Cage's best work other than Raising Arizona and Wild At Heart.

Synechdoche, New York is the latest. Depressfest but insightful.


Watching Basketball Diaries again right now. Seriously underrated, definitely DiCaprios best work imo.

My favourite screenwriter around for sure. I love them all but Eternal Sunshine still tops it for me. I never bothered to watch Human Nature though as it wasn't supposed to be up to his usual standard.

my housemate said I wasn't a woman because I hadn't watched this film

[defoxster]

I know its been mentioned on here already but I finally got round to watching Snowtown. It was intense but I thought It was a great film. Didnt know what to expect when I started watching it & now I just want to know more about this John Bunting.

[parson]

[Dub_freak]

Lol, Depressfest doesn't really do it justice. I feel like a slightly different person after seeing that film, I'm not sure in a good way either.
