    Oh, was that the part that sent you right over the edge? I didn't watch the whole thing either. It played but I couldn't pay attention at all. I caught a few scenes. I think he might have crashed and then run the track in his tightie whities. And at the end, he kissed the Perrier driver, but that's all I know (other than they prayed to the little baby jesus)

    The Virgin Spring by Bergman. Very intense, the lead up to the father's revenge was just excrutiating, it kept building and you knew full well things were going to go very badly for those goatherders but the resolution seemed like it took forever. And Max Von Sydow was a handsome young man, I didn't know that, neither did I know he was Swedish...you learn something new every day.

    Blow up by Michelangelo Antonioni (1966) and a younger Vanessa Redgrave.

    Very long, but very very good. 8/10

    And that is my non-existent constructive criticism....I just read a review on imdb.com which was good

    Through a Glass Darkly 7/10

    First part of Bergman's Silence of God trilogy. The acting of the very small cast (only four characters) is exceptionnal. Gunnar Bjornstrand is always great. Harriet Anderson and Max Von Sydow push each other to the limit. The scene in the wrecked boat has some great cinematography.

    I am watching Tenacious D Pick of Destiny with Jack Black. I think it's good.
    Jack Black is very talented and this movie is hilarious with funny drug situations, and heavy metal spoofs. I LOVE Jack Black

    5 stars and two thumbs up!!

    8/10

    3:10 to Yuma

    with Russell Crow, Christian Bale, and James Fonda.
    It is an adaptation of Elmore Leonard's short story and I thought it was well made. There is a lot of shooting and killing of both good guys and bad guys and a little bad language, but nothing too bad. The only problem I had with the movie is that early on James Fonda gets gut shot and continues on after the bullet is removed like nothing happened. It's a good story and the acting was good. Christian Bale was excellent, I thought.

    The original "3:10 to Yuma." Similar, and very diff., from the Russel Crowe version of a month ago. The black & white original is very simple, great Western scenery, fine acting.

    "Il Bidone" Federico Fellini 8/10. Not a big fan of Fellini, but this one was fun

    I watched a couple of movies this weekend. First up was Lilya 4-Ever which was a recommendation from LTFR because she knows I like sad, depressing movies and this certainly fit the bill. When death of the major character can be considered a happy ending...you know that's a depressing movie. The second movie of the weekend was also brought to my attention by LTFR, in a manner of speaking. She posted a picture of After The Wedding on the movie scenes thread and she said it was good so I watched it and loved it and now netflix is recommending all these Danish movies starring Mads Mikkelsen so I keep getting them. This selection was The Green Butchers which is an incredibly dark comedy. The ending was a little too neat but the humour was wonderfully wicked and dark. Not a movie for everyone because...it contains cannibalism...but there were a several lines and sitations that were both hilarious and horribly gruesome.

    The Marsh - a typical thriller (with a child-ghost who takes her revenge...) ***
    Idiocracy - an individual but not so entertaining comedy ***
    Zoom - a comedy with Tim Allen as a retired superhero? *

    Oh my! I own this movie. It is really sad. And the movie theme by Rammstein ("Mein Herz brennt") is very powerfull. Although i liked it, it is definately a movie i won't watch again

    If you like Danish movies check out Carl Theodor Dreyer's movies. I recommend "Gertrud", Vredens Tag" and "Ordet". For me Dreyer is the best danish director and his movies might remind you a bit of Bergman's movies.

    Here's a link in case you haven't heard of him

    Go check out Into The Wild. i'm willing to bet this one is going to win Film of the Year, and if it doesn't then there's something wrong in the world.

    and the soundtrack is phenomenal.
