The Tenant (1976) - One of Polanksi's psychological thrillers from the apartment trilogy (including Rosemary's Baby and Repulsion). It's kind of cryptic and with multiple viewings can be interpretated in different ways. Highly recommended.

want to see this and Repulsion quite badly.

recently:

Sol Bianca: The Legacy. Not a movie, but was good (although, apparently, not as good as the original series or the movie(s?)).

Ozu's Tokyo Story. Finally. It lived up to the hype. Recommend, recommend, recommend.

Rescue Dawn
. Herzog's best since Aguirre?

Edin Velez's documentary Dance Of Darkness about Japanese contemporary dance. Recognised that it was sampled by FSOL on 'Lifeforms'!!

You've got a lot to look forward to with both those films.

I was lucky enough to stumble across a 3 DVD pack with Repulsion, Cul-De-Sac and Knife in the Water (his first and last feature film shot in communist Poland).

i've seen almost all of herzog's movies and rescue dawn ain't one of my favorites. it was good but it was on the commercial side, and didn't have that herzog feelin much.

fucking brilliant film, but i cannot for the life of me describe what its about. its sort of about scriptwriter charlie kaufman (nic cage) turns to his less talented twin donald for help as charlie comes to terms with the endless struggle that is his life. so far, so boring - right? wrong! fucking funny and fucking weird it was a film brilliantly written by (the real) charlie kaufman and directed by captain oddball, spike jonze.

highly recommended :D:

adaptation spoilers:

charlie doesn't know how to write about flowers without changing the story into some hollywood bullshit. so halfway through the movie, his brother donald's script takes over, and the plot goes crazy. donald was a fictional plot device so he could use his personality as an excuse to do silly shit with the plot

i dunno - i reckon it wouldn't be too far of a stretch to say it was similar to Fitzcarraldo, at least in some respects.

Diary of The Dead - not bad actually.

Ironman - pretty decent superhero movie.

Indiana Jones - entertaining enough, prob on a par with the Last Crusade

ironman was pretty good, but then again anything with robert downey jr. in it has a chance!
