8 1/2 Well, this being one of my three favorite films of all time, whenever it's on, I never hesitate for a revisit. First of all, this is the greatest dedication to film ever made; it is a complete homage to art and life, and how art can save life. The subtitle of this film was The Beautiful Confusion and that is exactly what it is. Throughout the film we feel as if the camera and actors are participating in some sort of surrealistic ballet. This film was so many layers of ...
Raising Arizona seems as if a camera was given to a twelve year old Orson Welles and was told to go crazy. This is an unbelievably skillful and well photographed film with endless eye-candy and camera moves that seem like circus tricks. This film is just exploding with Wellesian innovation and charm.

Lynch certainly is somewhere over the raindow 7/10 Also, I saw Drugstore Cowboy about a week ago. Matt Dillon's performance is so great, and Van Sants directing is top notch. It truly gives you that feeling of degration and ...
People have different opinions on biology that much is sure and I am thankful for the tips, I'm sure they'll come in handy. Like you may have noticed, I am still alive and I finished two biology projects, we'll see how I did, the second one about Malaria, only one question I couldn't answer about the Icelandic name for this disease, have no idea were it came from. I'm really enjoying my children lit project, reading about Icelandic myths, elves and ghost stories now, there are a lot of those. Many ...
