can you stay here and help with our education? we're quite desperate.

Safe bets of the month february:

Notre Musique
(Yes, this guy called Jean-Luc still does great movies...)

Deadlock
(A nihilistic krautrock neo-western by a guy named Roland Klick...)

Jean-Pierre Melville's ouevre
(An underrated director with more than one great movie...)

La Battaglia di Algeri
(From a time when political movies where full of tension, emotions and visions comes this masterpiece...)

Takashi Miike's Shin jingi no hakaba
(I like the way this bleak yakuza-drama refuses to show psychological motivations... Rikuo Ishimatsu is an extremly talented actor, at least in my opinion...)

Schultze gets the Blues
(If you like Jarmusch and want to get an idea what ordinary people's life in backwood-Germany looks like and how they see America, here's your movie...)

Dersu Uzala
(I'm going to sleep, so i ain't got no idea what to say... besides..... Miau,... das ist ein verfickt guter Film, Argos)

I rather watch 'Ultraviolet' by Kurt Wimmer.

Ultraviolet is not as good as Deep Rising.

Discuss!

...but you had to watch his oeuvre in the month of February -
now, it's to late.

March is dedicated to:

Paul Greenaway's The Cook, The Thief, Her Wife and His Lover

Harun Farocki's Aufschub

Fernand Léger's Ballet mécanique

Bernardo Bertolucci's Il Conformista

Michelangelo Antonioni's La Notte

...and a couple of other Motion Pictures.

Watch it in 200 years, then.

Today (now), i am recommending...

Faces
by John Cassavetes

and

Un condamné à mort s'est échappé ou Le vent souffle où il veut
by Robert Bresson

good job.

thank you, 'Lil Samurai.
I be seeing one of your February recommendations in July.

That's too late. The Grim Reaper won't play any chess with you if you missrespect my recommendations by perceiving them TOO LATE. Can you live on with the fear of dying without even playing chess with the mighty Grim Reaper?

What do we got this time?






















Oh, well... fantastic movies, i guess.

THE PLANE EXPLODES

(end spoilers)

we have already seen it, we did not suffer your technical difficulties.

mon oncle, snack, quick!

ok, tonight.

A couple of days/weeks ago, i watched a movie about a donkey.

It's called
Au hasard Balthazar
and it's fantastic.

poor balthazar.

this morning, I saw claire's knee and thought it was very, very good.

I would have preferred the ending if Balthazar had won the race.

too bad he couldn't do this

This movie is a lot of fun, although Barbet Schroeder's hair-styling is really, really bad.

shut up samurai delombre or i will kill you many times.
