| Quote: | "We need a witness to our lives. There's a billion people on the planet... I mean, what does any one life really mean? But in a marriage, you're promising to care about everything. The good things, the bad things, the terrible things, the mundane things... all of it, all of the time, every day. You're saying 'Your life will not go unnoticed because I will notice it. Your life will not go un-witnessed because I will be your witness." |

The Dark Knight
by DerekSo after all the hype finally starts to subside I give in to curiosity...I consider myself a lifelong Batman enthusiast and an avid reader of the lore...the Dark Knight is perhaps the only "superhero" I have ever really truly embraced (sans Robin) ... considering that deep down he's really just a man-conflicted that just happens to have the means and the mind to be something extraordinary...but considering Christopher Nolan's first entry into this fascinating character's world I have to admit I approached this follow-up with a certain degree of skepticism...I wanted this film to work just as badly as every other die hard Batman fanboy to be sure...the director borrows heavily from the pages of some of the finest comic book scribes to ever approach the Caped Crusader...the guys that gave Batman a reality check and threw him into a noir world that helped define the cult icon that he is today, Nolan and company capture this feel rather skillfully at times but also of course take great liberties in melding their own arch and perhaps lose subtlety in their cinematic vision and the results are frankly rather uneven almost jarred together... and Christian Bale, with all his talent almost seems to resent wearing the suit too damn much to bring any real depth to his role and instead continues to go from suave and arrogant Bruce Wayne to an alter ego that moves stiffly and speaks with a contrived growl, not exactly the graceful crime-fighter I like to imagine...something just seems to be missing in his portrayal to me... and on to his nemesis Joker, the late Heath Ledger does his best Jack Nicholson impersonation...the real joke is that the masses so easily proclaim it an Oscar-worthy performance because of his untimely death...all-in-all over-hyped comes to mind but the right word is dissonance.
My thoughts on this summer's biggest blockbuster...

Irma Vep
by El HombreBurned out new wave director, played by one-time Truffaut alter ego Jean-Pierre Léaud, decides to remake Louis Feuillade's french melodrama, Les Vampires, with the Hong Kong starlet Maggie Cheung as the black-latex-clad leader of a gang of jewel thieves.
Amusing behind-the-scenes look at the French film industry that's critical of how it's funded, how it looks upon its' cinematic legacy and how its' complancency, seriousness, self-importance, fighting and jealousies crush any real creativity. Maggie Cheung, who in the film can't understand the french language, is great to watch as she's allowed to be herself and put her own personality into the film, improvising and reacting with surprise and incomprehension to the insanity around her.
If you've considered french films to be pretentious, here's one that allows you to laugh at the making of such.

The Butcher Boy
by El HombreNeil Jordan's 1997 film The Butcher Boy has striking similarities to Truffaut's The 400 Blows as well as Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange, though with much more satire if that's possible. Even if it's nowhere close to being as brilliant as those mentioned, Jordan's film is very good.
Possibly the most cheerful film ever made about abusive childhoods, alienation, sexual abuse, madness and murder and should be noted for the simple fact of being the first film in the renaissance of Irish cinema during the 1990s not to be centered around sectarian violence.
From the director of The Crying Game, The Good Thief and Breakfast On Pluto.

Things We Lost in the Fire
by EJBrilliant performance by Benicio Del Toro as an ex-attorney who becomes a heroin addict. David Duchovny portrays his friend who never turns his back on him.
After Duchovny's death in a random act of violence, Jerry(Benicio Del Toro) becomes friends with his friend's wife Audrey played by Halle Berry. Jerry fights his addiction which has destroyed everything that was once important to him as Audrey finds Jerry to be the only person to help her survive her loss. Her children and Jerry form a bond which keeps him on the level most of the time.
When things seem to be at their worst, the fight in each of these characters struggles to rise above the deepest fog and gloom.Hey, you should really see this!

Le Petit Soldat (The Little Soldier)
by El HombreAn early Jean-Luc Godard film that was made on a shoestring budget about a young revolutionary, Bruno, living in Geneva who is fighting against French involvement in the war in Algeria, only to run into Veronica (Anna Karina).
Shot like a newsreel, much of the film is photographed with a hand-held camera, with sound post-synchronized. A moody, often violent film, complete with sequences of torture modeled after the actions of occupying French forces in Algeria. These scenes resulted in the movie being banned by the French government for some time.
Photography is truth. And cinema is truth 24 frames a second

Funny Games (2008)
by TonyThis was by far,the most disturbing film I've seen in years..an unflinching documentation of a couple of "Leopold & Loeb"-like psychopaths humiliating,terrorizing,and then murdering their victims..the "rewind" scene really f_cks with the vigilante instinct in(presumably) all of us..I cheered,then almost put my fist through the screen.Since Alex DeLarge,I have not seen more loathsome characters on screen..there's no justice,just this inexorable,post-modern evil having its way..something very "clinical" about it(maybe it's those gloves).Sounds weird,but I don't know if I can even call it a movie..it's a flat enactment of nasty reality,so recommending it is tough.This ain't no popcorn movie.If you liked "In The Bedroom","A Clockwork Orange","Cul-De-Sac",then you can probably hack this.

The Girl on the Bridge (La Fille sur le pont)
by El HombreThis is a great movie. A very touching story of Adele, a sad young woman with a uncontrollable tendency to run away with men who inevitably hurt her, and Gabor, a knife thrower with a sorrowful past. Filmed in black and white, The Girl on the Bridge is beautiful, but its narrative is just as engaging as its' images.
The adventures of Adele and Gabor are consistently quirky and entertaining. As they move from one locale to the next, they encounter a variety of distinctive individuals, including a contortionist, a decadent newlywed, and a woman who had previously been Gabor's assistant and lover. For anyone who realizes how happy sadness can be, the movie is a sure shot.
This unusual love story brings together a suicidal young woman and a much-older knife-thrower who’s looking for a new assistant.

OH*MY*GOD! That is amazing. You did so much with it. Must have taken you a long time to make that. It's beautiful! Love you to death. I came here to give you a link about making icons that someone gave me on lj. It was over my head, but thought you might get something from it. Here is the link, if I can get it to work.
