The cinema thread

Koroshi no rakuin (Branded to kill, 1967)





Worth watching. The disjointed, rough editing and sharp, inventive cinematography really made the movie for me. Of course, Jo Shishido as a hitman who gets turned on by the smell of cooked rice + the jazzy ambience helped as well.

who does she think she is? Rei Kawakubo or Michael Jackson? Homecoming queen??????????????????

[Fade to Black]

Not Rei Kawakubo. Maybe Michael Jackson (alongside the other new Michael Jackson - Beyonce - in that new music vid) or homecoming queen.

[munch]

is she really that big? I never liked her music and probably never will, even Cartman does it better. and she doesn't look good either? oh well

[polishmike]

I agree but this is a total must see. So good!

[laika]

Faust, how did your daughter like it? I want to see that very much.

Last night I saw The Fantastic Mr. Fox

[Faust]

She liked it a lot. It was between that and Fantastic Mr. Fox, actually, but it was her decision.
