The past weekend, watched the following(all revisits):
L'enfant: wow, WAY bigger impact on me this this time around. There's something remarkable in the clarity of the films of the Dardenne brothers. Again, Jeremie Renier was marvelous, Deborah Francois was also wonderful. I found myself both a bit frustrated, and simultaneously intrigued by the motivations of Renier's character(and the choice of the filmmakers not to focus too much on the background life of this man that would cause him to make such impulsive and desperate decisions).
The Virgin Spring: While I know many consider this one of Bergman's lesser works, this one keeps my interest more than a lot of his other films. Gunnel Lindblom is fantastic(as always), and gorgeous(again, as always), probably my favorite of Bergman's regulars(she had the most personality, even more than Liv Ullman or Bibi Andersson). The music is fantastic, the scenery is probably the most lush of any Bergman film I can think of(even Wild Strawberries), and the pivotal scenes of brutality are played with an amazing level of theatricality(esp. from Max Von Sydow), which somehow works in the hands of Bergman. Also, the set design in this film is top notch, a very consistent quality for all Bergman films.

i watched waking life over the weekend.
Pessimistic of what it had to offer but found it very interesting and enjoyed the philosophical content (my subject). Bit pretentious in its portrayal at times but on the whole very interesting, insightful and well executed with the different animation styles. The guy who sets himself on fire is me (without the setting on fire bit)

I might just watch it tonight again!

I really enjoyed it up to the last 20 mins or so, when it got a bit dumb (in my opinion), which is what I though of 28 Days Later as well.

Man, The Shining is one of my favourite movies of all time. Saw it when I was about 10 years old - scared the bejaysus out of me then and still does today. Those scenes where Danny's riding his tricycle through the hotel corridors...
